Does anyone know what kind of shortcode or programming that needs to be configured in order for a receptionsist to send a caller direct to someones voicemail without the phone ringing?
 
Use phone manager or use a short code in voicemail pro
any other ideas ?
 
I always do this:
Short Code: #XXX
Number: #N
Feature: Voicemail Collect

This assumes 3 digit extensions. Voicemail Pro sees # as a command to deposit voicemail, so after setting up this short code - you can transfer direct to voicemail by pressing Transfer # extension Transfer.

HTH
 
Wtih tho SoftConsole you don't need a shortcode.
The shortcode of Melmac does work but is not guaranteed in future releases because officially calls are routed to VM using the name of the user instead of the number.
