I need to make changes to an Auto Attendant. Where can I find a good document that steps through the process to make the changes for the AA/ single digit menu?

Thanks
 
I posted this "How-to-program Single Digit Menues some time ago.

How to program Auto Attendant / Single-Digit-Menues for:OCTEL 200/300 and VMX-100.This small course will detailed take you through how to program Auto Attendant / Single-Digit-Menues for OCTEL 200/300 and VMX-100.This feature is know as: "Press one for the Sales Dept., press two for the Service...First you should log-on and see if you have a license for this feaure:At the @ prompt type L F and see if you have the license "SW-X0019" If it is an VMX-100 the license will be named: SW-20019.If it is an OCTEL-200 the license will be named: SW-40019. If it is an OCTEL-300 the license will be named: SW-30019. In the example the welcome greeting mailbox is in MB 4000.Press one to be transferred to extension 5000.Press two to be transferred to extension 7000.At the @ prompt type U to go to the Update prompt.Make a COS/INFO/SCH for the welcome greeting: COS=50Make a COS/INFO/SCH for the "press one": COS=51Make a COS/INFO/SCH for the "press two": COS=52As the extension 5000 and 7000 NOT both end with xxx1 and xxx2, we need to do some number conversion.OCTEL always need a prefix (pre digits) and the digit "1" for transferring to an extension, if you have presssed one.We will have 55571 as number conversion to 5000 and55572 as number conversion to 7000.So pressing "1" converts the "1" to 55571 and in COS=51 to theextension number 5000.Just follow this example..A COS Enter COS.

Sorry.
It has been messed up.

I rather post the link.

Yes, a co-worker sent me the link. All I have is the main extension number. I wanted to see if there was an easy way to follow the menu (Auto Attendant) to determine where they are routing to. One of the prompts they want to dial a toll free number so that one is the main concern.

Thanks
 
This is to change an Auto Attendant. I have dialed in a few times. I do not see where option 6 is in the setup. I looked at the COS (l prof) of the lead number and see it route to mailbox 1000 and has 3 COS in one field. Maybe I'm over thinking how to change this.
 
If I change the info tables intercept mailbox to another extension (I'll show the routing) does that change where prompt x routes to?

I have extension 1234 cos 130 uses intercept 7001.
7001 cos 131 has 7001 as the intercept.
7002 cos 132 has 7002 as the intercept.
If I want prompt 1 to route to 7002 do I only change the intercept mailbox to 7002 in the info table?
and for prompt 2 change the intercept mailbox to 6665
(m info 131 & 132)?

Let me know if I'm on the right track

Thanks
 
You just need to change the INFO table in index 1 and 18


1 INTERCEPT MAILBOX 5000
18 NEXT MAILBOX 5000

Use .m info to do it.

///doktor
 
Thanks doktor;

I tried what you show and it didn't work (according to the remote customer). When I traced the call it looks like it still routes to 7001 after I change it to 7002. 18 was set to none and I left it that way. I did not try it by changing the "next mailbox".
 
To see your point, I need you to post the relevant COS, INFO and SCHedules here (.l profile).

If you in a profile press 1 the call will be transferred to the NEXT MAILBOX (e.g. 5000).

If you in a profile press 1 the call will be transferred to the NEXT MAILBOX (e.g. 5000), but if the call is not answered af a while, the call will be transferred to the INTERCEPT MAILBOX .
