You can subscribe to an SMS provider to send SMS to mobile numbers.

Contact an SMS Gateway Provider that offers an HTTP API if you want to integrate SMS into Geer ERP. Your account will be created, and they'll give you a special username and password.

Go to: to view SMS settings.

Home > Settings > SMS Settings

Learn about their HTTP API in order to configure SMS settings in Geer ERP (a document which describes the method of accessing their SMS interface from 3rd party applications). You will find a URL in this document that may be used to send SMS messages via HTTP request. You can set up SMS Settings in Geer ERP using this URL.

Example URL for SMS Gateway:

Note: For SMS Gateway URL, only include the string before the "?".

Example:

http://instant.smses.com/web2sms.php?username=abcd&amp;password;=abcd&amp;to;=9900XXXXXX&amp;sender;
=DEMO&amp;message;=THIS+IS+A+TEST+SMS

The aforementioned URL will send an SMS from the account abcd to the cellphone number 9900XXXXXX with the words "THIS IS A TEST SMS" as the text message body.

Keep in mind that the URL contains certain static parameters. Your SMS provider will send you static values like usernames and passwords, etc. The Static Parameters table should have these static values.
