Key Takeaways

  • Scenario 1413 is elevator / lift inspection-plaque MMS — not extinguisher tags, scaffold cards, meter dials, hazmat bags, LOTO, night keys, storm claims, or closeout selfies.
  • A cropped plaque and car id are the payload. Do not MMS the lobby, residents, or neighboring doors.
  • Read MMS and “we attended” SMS must not share a radio with portal OTP or a “modernize your lift” blast.
  • Priced by devices and SMS send volume. You use your own phone and operator SMS credit. Free is 1 / 300 / 300. Developer is 25,000 SMS per year.
  • Operator MMS is usually dearer than SMS. Budget annual inspection weeks separately.
  • REST attachment fields live in Developer Center — not a CodeCanyon lift add-on. MCP, if you use it, is only a REST wrapper.

Summary

Scenario 1413 is field MMS for elevator inspection plaques. The CMMS owns the car id. The Android sends a cropped plaque so the desk can close the annual. Priced by devices and SMS send volume. You use your own phone and operator SMS credit.

If the only proof of the plaque is an MMS the APN dropped, you do not have an inspection. You have another verbal “the sticker looked current.”

Elevator inspection plaques

Attach the car id in the worker. MMS on your SIM · MMS API usage. Fields: Developer Center. Industry notes: GSMA.
