Setting up a new IP Office 8.0 with Voicemail Pro and am trying to create a short code to leave a message in a mailbox, IE VM Transfer on Partner system. I've done this before and I even have an older IP Office in my office and I have that button on my phone, but I can't make it work. Short Code *22XXX, Voicemail Collect, telephone number: #N. The button on the phone is programmed to dial *22. With the older 4.2 software it works but on the new system, no workie. Naturally the newer 8.0 put the parenthesis around the #N. I've tried several combinations. Has anyone got the silver bullet? Thanks.
 
voicemail collect

short code *2xx

"?extn***" ...*** being the number of the extn number you are collecting from , you need to set a voicemail password for outside access

vm collect

or vm pro simply set up a

If using 14xx,16xx,95xx or 96xx handsets and visual voice, simply press the message in call (no transfer first) and it ask what extn's mailbox you want to send it to :)

 
? is get voicemail with voicemail collect and # is leave voicemail with voicemail collect.
So in this case you should use "#number"

BAZINGA!

I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!

 
so to recap

code: *2100

feauture:voicemailcollect

telephonenumber;"#Extn2100"

this will place a vm message in mailbox 2100


if putting on a button

Dial

*2100

but first you must set the short code up.....pink love please :)
