Enabling
Subscribers for Message Manager
Now that the platform is administered
to handle the Message Manager application, you must give subscribers
access to Message Manager. There are two ways in which you can enable
subscribers for Message Manager:
- On an individual (subscriber-by-subscriber)
basis
- By defining a Class of Service
(COS)
If you have a large number of subscribers
to administer, defining or revising a COS is more efficient than enabling
each subscriber individually.
Note: The following
tasks contain instructions that relate only to the one or two
fields on a particular screen that are part of Message Manager
administration. See Subscriber Administration
for complete field descriptions.
