Embedded VM v9.0 DayAA not working 1

[cplatt7]

Ran into something strange while programming a new IPO v9.0 with embedded voicemail that I thought I would share. I am not able to name my daytime auto attendant "DayAA". When I dial the shortcode, I just get a busy. If I change the name to "dayAA" (lower case d), it works. I have programmed a hundred systems prior to v9 with DayAA and never had a problem. If anyone has any ideas what changed, I would love to hear them.

I have seen the same issue on 3 systems, it's always the first AA that you create. If you create a 2nd, 3rd, 4th....they all work fine.

I take that back. I just went to my demo kit and changed AA-1 name from "Day" to "Main" and now I can dial it.

Thanks for the reply hb. I tried creating it again after creating several other AA's but it still doesn't work. I changed it to MainAA and it works just fine so I'll just keep it that way.

LOL, I just had this same issue today on R9. I had autoattendants named Days, DayAA, DayAA1 and none of them would work, drove me nuts, so like you after naming them AA1 or test or test1 they worked. Seriously Avaya, WTF... Now my question is, if I update an existing 8.1 customer to R9 that has the AA named DayAA, is that going to break it? (More than likely the answer would be yes, i guess.) My other question is, how the hell do they break something like this? Did some Avaya programmer have a vendetta against naming your AA with a capital D?
