Message Source Exceptions

Info
titleNote:

The Message Source Exceptions exclude the sending facilities that have a related contact within Practix. These can be set up in the Practix configuration steps later in this guide. Otherwise all the sending facilities will be identified as being sent from Medical-Objects and not their own identity. For this example we will use Southernex Imaging.
