About Group Prompts

The Message Server Administrator provides the ability to organize prompts individually or in groups and display them on the device accordingly.

  • Individually – each prompt on its own page

  • Grouped – two or more prompts on their own page. Up to 26 groups may be created, labeled A-Z
