Icon System

- Delete an item from the system. - Restore a file to the system.

Extensions

- Edit an extension’s phone settings. - Download a file from the system.

Extensions are telephones. A telephone can be an IP (SIP)-telephone or a Softphone. Calls are routed to an extension where people answer them. In the IPitomy 1000, an extension can be located in an office or outside the office when a broadband connection is used.

Groups

Groups are a set of extensions. Once a group is created, extensions can be designated members of the group. This is accomplished by selecting group members from a drop- down list. Calls can be routed to groups by using the Group function.

Automated Attendant (Menu)

To create an automated attendant use the system’s Menu function. The Menu function routes calls to a destination in the system like a group, extension or another menu. Destinations are selected from a drop-down list for each corresponding key-pad digit a caller must select to get to their chosen destination. A Menu must have a Menu Prompt. This is a recording that identifies for callers the destinations they may choose. For example, a Menu Prompt might offer callers the option to press “1” for Sales, “2” for Accounts Receivable or other digits for another department.

Advanced Routing Functions

When building an automated attendant (menu) all routable destinations in the system will appear in the drop-down menu. In addition to the destinations that are created while configuring the system, there are several advanced functions that can be used from the drop-down list.

Voicemail and Unified Messaging

When an extension is created, a voicemail box for that extension is also created. A voicemail box allows a caller to leave a message if a person is not available at the extension. When dialing into a mailbox for the first time, a user must record their name and a mailbox greeting. The name is used in the company’s dial-by-name directory when selected from the auto attendant (menu). The greeting is played when they are not available to take a call and a caller reaches their mailbox.

If an email address is included in the Extension page, a copy of the voicemail message will be emailed as a .Wav file to the users email account. This message can then be listened to on a PC.

Directory

The system has a dial-by-name directory. This option may be part of the automated- attendant. When this option is selected, a caller dials the first three letters of the last / first
