This window is used to create a template for the SMS that can be sent by right-clicking on a shipment in dispatch and selecting Send shipment as SMS. See Sending an SMS manually from dispatch for examples of how a message can be structured.
Add and delete rows in the same way as in the mobile data settings (see Mobile data settings (window)). Click on the blank row at the bottom to add a row. Then click on the down arrow to select a tag from the list, or enter free text. Select the entire row and press Delete to delete a row. It may be necessary to increase the row height in order to select the row.
Function | Description |
---|---|
Field | Can contain either free text or a tag that retrieves information from the shipment. It is not possible to both enter free text and use a tag on the same row in this table. Free text is written in single quotes (’), for example “‘Shipment from Courier Services Ltd\n’” (“\n” = new line). To combine free text and tags, or several tags, on the same line in the SMS, enter everything on several lines here without using any line breaks in the Following text column. |
Length | Enter the maximum number of characters for the text in Field. The text is cut at the number you specify. If the receiver’s name (ADR_AddrLine1To) is “ Eriksdalsskolan”, and “10” is entered in this column, “Eriksdalss” will be shown in the message. Warning! The tags StatusPickupUpdateLink and StatusDeliveryUpdateLink become unusable if they are cut because they print links. |
Following text | Can only contain free text, not tags. Single quotation marks do not need to be added around the text. The text is added immediately after the text in Field so it should be preceded by a space or a new line (“\n”). Example: “\nRgds, Courier Services Ltd\n”. |
Move up Move down | Moves the rows up/down in the list depending on where they are to be displayed in the message. |
Close | The rest of Opter is locked when this window is open. It must be closed in order to continue working. |
Tags in the Field column
The tags usually retrieve information from the shipment that is right-clicked in dispatch, not in the order.
Tag | Information retrieved from the shipment |
---|---|
SAS_ShortId | Provides no information in the SMS. Sequential numbering of the shipments assigned to a vehicle/driver. Can be regarded as the personal shipment number of the vehicle/driver. Different drivers/vehicles therefore have the same shipment serial number, so it is not possible to differentiate shipments based on SAS_ShortId. |
SHI_OrderDate | The order date. |
PriceItemCount | The number of price items on the order. |
SHI_ExternalMessage | The External message field on the order. |
SHI_Message | The Internal message field on the order. |
SHI_MessageExtra | The Internal extra message field on the order. |
SHI_Order | Shipment number. |
SHI_OrderId | Order number. |
SHI_Packages | Number of packages in the order. |
AddressFrom.ADR_AddrLine1 ADR_AddrLine1From | The shipment’s sender. |
AddressTo.ADR_AddrLine1 ADR_AddrLine1To | The shipment’s receiver. |
DeliveryAddressFrom.ADR_AddrLine1 | The order’s sender. |
DeliveryAddressTo.ADR_AddrLine1 | The order’s receiver. Note: The variable does not work. |
Packages | The package rows on the order. The following information about the packages is displayed in the SMS:
|
Articles | The price item rows on the order. The following information about the price items is displayed in the SMS:
|
StatusPickupUpdateLink | Link to a web page where the driver can change the status of the shipment and specify the address. The Picked up status and the pickup address are preset, so the driver usually only needs to approve the status change by tapping Ok on the web page. |
StatusDeliveryUpdateLink | Link to a web page where the driver can change the status of the shipment and specify the address. The Delivered status and the delivery address are preset, so the driver usually only needs to approve the status change by tapping Ok on the web page. |
