Test the setup

  1. Confirm the generated destination contains the customer's mobile number followed by @sms.tnz.co.nz.
  2. Confirm the actual From address matches the registered TNZ User.

Troubleshooting

The placeholder appears literally

Your PacsoftNG release may use different field syntax. Confirm the mobile field and placeholder format with PacsoftNG Support.

TNZ rejects the From address

Register the exact address stored in From Email Address as a TNZ User.

The documented menu is unavailable

Ask PacsoftNG Support for the equivalent Email-to-SMS configuration in your installed release.
