Multiple Call-Fwd Buttons

[DAy312]

I have an individual that is requesting two buttons to forward to two different extensions. I know that all he has to do is tap the button and enter a number each time but he has requested to avoid that. Is there a simple way to go about this? He does have a coverage path but that obviously isn't a button.. Any help would be great.

tell him tuff, sounds pretty lazy to me, 1 button will work fine

Haha, I just spoke with him and told him that I don't really think there is a way to do it. He didn't even realize there was a call forward button on his phone. Sigh.

You could probably build an autodial to the callforward feature code+destination.

He'd have 3 keys - FWD to A, FWD to B, and "call forward" which would be lit up when A or B are active and he could press that 3rd key to turn it off.

The feature code for call fwd is *20. How would that autodial work? Would I use a mark, pause? Learning as I go here.

 

[kyle555]

yeah, a pause or maybe you'd be able to just build *2095551112222 and it would/could cfwd out to that number.

Haven't done it in a while, but yeah, that's the idea.

Sorry the activation is *20, that's the same thing correct? I added a paused and the extension, but when I tap the button it just goes to a dial tone, like it does when you tape the call-fwd button.

 

[kyle555]

try it without the pause

 

[DAy312]

Same result.
