# Schedule SMS Messages

If you haven't done so already, please [review the steps](https://docs.blackthorn.io/docs/configuration-settings#scheduled-jobs) for starting and stopping scheduled jobs and messages.

SMS Messages can be scheduled via two interfaces.

- Record Page Messenger
- Bulk SMS

          Which Message field should I use?

          

End users will see the message in the **Message (Full)** field. They won’t receive the message in the **Message** field. Understanding this is especially important for messages over 256 characters, which will appear cut off in the **Message** field.

## Record Page Messenger
