QR Code SMSTO... multiple recipients

I am trying to setup a QR to send SMS to multiple (two) contacts. I found an example online that stated a comma between after the first number would work but my codes scan unreadable.

Can anyone advise how to create a single code that will send to multiple static contacts?

Also, if you know of a guide that defines this type of info, it may help me avoid more posts.

Thx!

  Hello Scott,

  Thank you for reaching out to us on the Community Forums.

  It appears that this issue is caused by the way some QR scanner and SMS apps handle the data, rather than an issue with BarTender. 

  I was able to get this to work by following the structure in the SMS URI documentation, for example:

  SMSTO:123456789,987654321:MessageText

   

  

   

  We have found that not all QR reader applications support this formatting, and not all SMS apps correctly handle the output, so you may try testing with different QR scanner and SMS apps. 

   

  Best regards,

  Otto Roberson
