How To Transfer Your Text Messages Number

If you have previously used the Text Messages feature set with Auctria you do not need to go through the process of assigning a telephone number. You will need to transfer the Text Messages telephone number from the previous event you were using it with.


Open Text Settings

Once you have located the event where you currently have your Text Messages telephone number assigned you can move forward with transferring it to your current event.

From the main Auction Dashboard of the event with the assigned telephone number, click through the Communication entry, and then click through the Text Settings entry of the Communication dashbaord to reach the Texting dashboard.
