LD Notifications

[surakmn]

We have notifications working to cell phones and pagers, but what would I change in the settings on an Octel to allow the notification to go to a long distance area code cell phone number? Thanks!

would seem to me that whether those ports can call LD would be a function of restriction on the PBX not the voicemail. What kind of PBX are you hooked up to?

It's hooked to an Avaya PBX, and the ports all appear to have LD access.

Let me take a look at how mine is set up. (Unless KENMEANS gets to the post first.)

surakmn - I have an Aria 250 so your menu options may be a bit different, but go to menu 6 (dialing parameters), menu 1 (transfer, outcall, .....), and set up your dialing sequence for logn distance calls to be your access code for making an LD call.

What type of Octel do you have and what is happening when you set it to call the cell number? does the Octel say you are not allowed to use that number or does it take it but it does not work ?

It accepts the number, it just doesn't send the call.

On PBX is N
Local is 9PPN
LD is 9P1N
AMIS Intl is 9PN
Pvt. NW is 9PN

They have been putting in the ten digit number without leading "9" or a "1

After you put the number in have you checked to make sure that outcall is turned on in personal options? Also are you sure you have any ports in menu 4 turned on for outcalling ? They should have a y under the O column
