What's New? • [Localization of MEMS] MEMS portal now features Localized environments. Users will now be able to switch the whole MEMS portal into their local language.

• [Escalations in OMNI Channel Orders] Introducing Escalations functionality within MEMS OMNI Channel Orders. Escalations in OMNI are used to trigger call-to-actions that follow a sequence of execution steps based on the user-defined conditions, for sending an Omni message. For example, you can define a rule to resend the original message via a different message type, if the first message has not received a response or is undelivered. Escalation in OMNI includes the following features: o The capability to define Escalation rules, when OMNI order has other content types, including Rich Media, Interactive Message and Voice, to try to reach out to the recipients in the most ways possible. o Escalation Condition are highly customizable with an option to specify the frequency of sending out Escalation messages by choosing the hours (1-24) and minutes (1-59). o A graphical display individual OMNI order's summary with indications of the sent message's status along with summary of the Escalation sequence. o Each Escalation Template contains a table that displays the chain of pre-set conditions to trigger a sequence of actions, to retry sending the message. o Support to al ow Escalation to re-send OMNI Orders With Non Text/Plain Text Messages. o A dedicated section that highlights the various condition-to-action permutations possible while producing OMNI Escalation Orders. Mentioned above are some of the features offered in OMNI's Escalation functionality. For more details please refer to the Online Help.
