Setting Options for the Messaging Tab

Use the Messaging tab to enable sending SMS messaging (Short Message Service) to GoldMine Web for reminders of upcoming scheduled activities.

IMPORTANT: Before GoldMine can send Activity reminders, sending must be enabled within the GoldMine system (Tools > Configure > System Settings > Messaging tab). See Configuring System Settings.

1. Navigate to Tools > Options. The Options dialog box opens.
2. Click on the Messaging tab.
3. Check the Send activity alarms as a message to my device box.
4. Specify the GoldMine user’s e-mail address used for receiving SMS messages in the E-mail address for the mobile device text box.

NOTE: This option is also available for non-master rights users provided that message sending has already been enabled in the Messaging tab in the System Settings (see Configuring System Settings).

TIP: For assistance in determining the e-mail address, refer to the following article for a listing of service providers’ SMS gateways: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_SMS_gateways

5. Click OK to save the settings and close the dialog.
