SMPPCenter’s SMPP software lets you modify the Sender Name in messages using normalization rules, ensuring consistent branding or compliance. Here’s how to configure Sender Name rules:

Steps to Modify Sender Name:

• Log In: Access your admin account.
• Navigate to Normalization Rules: Go to Sidebar -> SMPP Client -> Rules -> Normalization Rules.
• Add a New Rule: Click Add to open the modal form.
• Configure Sender Name Rules: In the Sender Name Rules section:
  • Origin Sender Name: Enter the Sender Name to apply the rule to (e.g., “SMPP”).
  • Sender Name Rule: Choose a condition:
    • EQUALS: Matches the exact Sender Name (e.g., “SMPP”).
    • CONTAINS: Matches Sender Names containing the text (e.g., “SMPPSoftware”).
    • STARTS WITH: Matches Sender Names starting with the text (e.g., “SMPP123”).
    • ENDS WITH: Matches Sender Names ending with the text (e.g., “MySMPP”).
  • New Sender Name: Enter the new Sender Name (e.g., “SMPPCenter”).
  • Sender Name Action: Select an action:
    • NO CHANGE: Keep the Sender Name as is.
    • REPLACE: Replace with the New Sender Name (e.g., “SMPPCenter”).
    • APPEND PREFIX: Add a prefix (e.g., “MySMPPCenter”).
    • APPEND SUFFIX: Add a suffix (e.g., “SMPPCenterApp”).
    • REMOVE PREFIX: Remove a matching prefix (e.g., remove “My” from “MySMPP”).
    • REMOVE SUFFIX: Remove a matching suffix (e.g., remove “App” from “SMPPApp”).
• Save the Rule: Set the Status to Enabled and click Save.

Example:

• Origin Sender Name: “SMPP”
• Sender Name Rule: EQUALS
• New Sender Name: “SMPPCenter”
• Sender Name Action: REPLACE
• Result: All messages with Sender Name “SMPP” will use “SMPPCenter” instead.

Best Practices

• Ensure the New Sender Name complies with operator and regulatory guidelines (e.g., DLT requirements in India).
• Test the rule with a small batch of messages to confirm the Sender Name displays correctly.
