The Service Area may be associated directly with a toll-free number via the Record Management: SMS CAD screen or by pointing at an SMS Template via the Record Management: SMS PAD screen, in which case the Service Area is defined in the Template Management screen. The Service Area section of the Record Management: SMS CAD screen appears as follows:
