About SMS Package Management

Most institutions use Short Message Service (SMS) as a way to communicate with the students, parents, and employees. By integrating the portal with a bulk SMS service provider, institutions can use the SMS module to send SMS text messages to students, parents, and employees, as well as deliver automatic notifications when certain events occur in the portal. When configuring SMS settings in the portal, you can design SMS packages. An SMS package consists of the following:

  • SMS package details such as the service provider name, message limit, package validity, etc.

  • SMS configuration settings which includes the parameters and their appropriate values



Who can create and assign SMS packages?

The institution portal's Clients (Portal Account Administrators) can create and assign SMS packages to individual schools created under them.

Note: Portal Clients can no longer allow individual schools to inherit SMS configuration settings (Inherit SMS settings checkbox has been removed). Instead, SMS packages must be assigned.
