Restricted Words in Send to Fax
Send to Fax allows administrators to define a list of restricted words to prevent sending fax communications containing potentially inappropriate or non-compliant language.
If an end-user attempts to send a fax containing a restricted word in a free text token, either as an exact match or a partial match, an error message displays, preventing the fax from being sent.
This feature enhances compliance by proactively identifying and blocking fax communications that may contain inappropriate or non-compliant language, ensuring that all outgoing communications adhere to established guidelines.

Using Multiple Veeva Messages to Restrict Words
Administrators can define the list of restricted words as a series of Veeva Messages. This enables a list of restricted words larger than the 5000 character limit of a single Veeva Message:
-
Create all appropriate Veeva Messages containing lists of restricted words.
-
Veeva Messages must be a unique combination of the name__v, category__v, and external_id__v fields.
-
Navigate to the Fax Restricted Words Fax Setting.
-
Enter the Veeva Messages as a comma-separated list. All Veeva Messages in this setting must belong to the same category and use the format [Name1],[Name2],[Name3];;[Category].
For example, the following references three Veeva Messages for the list of restricted words: RESTRICTED,RESTRICTED2,RESTRICTED_jp;;ApprovedEmail
All Veeva Messages used must have the same language and match the user’s language.
