Feature Discussed :- “Preview”

Why Preview is required?

As SMSCountry provides customized bulk messaging from Microsoft Excel Plug-in, one must know how the message will appear after customization.

Preview Feature provides following facilities:-

1) Displays exact message which will be forwarded to the recipient along with mobile number.

2) Shows number of characters message contains.

3) Number of SMS’s clubbed into single SMS.

4) Total number of SMS’s selected for sending SMS.

5) Total number of SMS’s charged.





Problem: I want to send SMS to all my clients listed above.
From above data we can say that 12 SMS will be required to send the details.
But there are some clients who have more then one transaction ex:- “CJR009” .
Hence we can use “Advanced feature” to group all his records in to single SMS.


Lets check...
...
..



Enter the Message -> specify the row range -> select Advanced Options -> select “Preview and Send” -> Click on “Send” button (as shown above)

Until now we were unknown of how actually the sms is grouped into one and how does it appear to the client once sent.

So, here is the solution for you...

On selecting the option of “Preview and Send”, a dialog will appear that displays each and every SMS message in exact format as it appears on receivers mobile.




You can view each SMS details by using “Next SMS >>” and “<< Previous SMS” buttons.
Click On “Send SMS” shall directly proceed to sending SMS.

Next Example :

“Preview” with “Filter Feature”

Suppose I have hundreds of records in my sheet. According to my filter formula “#G# > 600” I don’t know how many SMS will be sent and to whom it will send.

In such case, here is the solution.




You can proceed sending using “Send SMS” button or click “Cancel” to cancel all the messages.
