    How exactly are you receiving the SMS Messages. What service is picking them up.

    Theres a couple of ways you could do it.

    In your Application Code on the SMSReceived Event you could kick off a separate thread to sleep for 180 seconds, and then call your SQL Code.

    If you want to do it in the database, you’ll need some sort of polling thread.

    Record the “TimeReceived” and have a bit flag “PostProcessed”

    Then you could just have a job that runs every 60 seconds that goes

    SELECT *
FROM ReceivedSMS
WHERE TimeRecieved < dateadd(second, -180, getdatE()) AND
      PostProcessed = 0

FOREACH Record - Execute SPROC & Update PostProcessed = 1.
