Timekeeping via Text/SMS Messages
In continuation of our effort to provide innovative and easy to use features to simplify your timekeeping and invoicing tasks, our SMS Timekeeping Add-On enables you to enter your time into your CaseFox account via Text/SMS messages. Now no more lost revenues due to missed timekeeping. You can simply send a text message to CaseFox in a simple specific format and the time note will be automatically entered into your account.
No changes to your account are needed except one. You will need to enter phone numbers of your staff (under the Staff tab in your CaseFox account). These phone numbers must be the numbers from which these staff members will be sending SMS messages to CaseFox. We will identify the user and your account by these phone numbers when we receive text messages. These phone numbers will not be used for any other purposes.
