Automated Attendant Features
The Inbound Automated Attendant can answer your telephone
in a variety of ways to provide information,
transfer callers, or take voice messages:
- With only a greeting and message.
- With a greeting, message, and voice mail.
- With a greeting and menu choices.
- With a greeting, menu choices, and voice mail.
- With a greeting, menu choices, voice mail, and call transfers.
- With any other combination of the above options.
- Menu choices may be 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, and 0.
- You may have up to 10,000 voice mailboxes. Callers may enter
the voice mailbox number (from 1 to 5 digits), or if they do
not know the number, they may search by name or by listing.
- Callers may be transferred to another telephone number, if
you have "3-way calling" or "Centrex" type
service from your local telephone company. Users may turn the
call transfer "on" or "off". If call transfer
is "off", the call will go directly to voice mail,
but if call transfer is "on", the call will be transferred
to dial a telephone number. When answered, the call will be disconnected
from your system's phone line(s) if you have "Centrex",
though if you have "3-way calling", that line will
stay in use. When a call is transferred and there is no answer
or it's busy, the call will then go to the user's voice mailbox
for the caller to leave a voice message. At any time, you may
call in from any location and change the telephone number where
calls are to be transferred.
- You may record or listen to greetings, menus, information,
and messages by telephone, or if you have a sound card (Sound
Blaster compatible) in your computer, you may use a microphone
and speaker.
- The Inbound Automated Attendant may operate at the same time
as the Outbound Auto Dialing, if using separate telephone lines.
- Your system can handle up to 12 telephone lines simultaneously.
