| Custom prompts | You can record a Custom prompt to replace the Automated Attendant | 
| 
 | Menu prompt. We recommend that you record prompts that are at least | 
| 
 | eight seconds long. | 
| 
 | In the Custom prompt you can provide the caller with a list of options such | 
| 
 | as choosing the alternate language, accessing the Company Directory and | 
| 
 | reaching an operator. You can record a Primary and an Alternate Custom | 
| 
 | prompt for each Greeting Table. | 
| 
 | 
 | 
| Greeting | For each Greeting Table you can assign what Greeting plays for each time | 
| 
 | of day. | 
| 
 | 
 | 
| Language preference | You can set the language preference for each Greeting Table. This setting | 
| 
 | determines which language the Automated Attendant uses when | 
| 
 | answering incoming calls. If the CallPilot bilingual option is not enabled, | 
| 
 | you cannot set up a language preference. | 
| 
 | 
 | 
| Greeting table attendant | A Greeting Table Attendant overrides the designated Operator. If the | 
| 
 | Attendant does not answer, the call goes to the destination mailbox, or the | 
| 
 | General Delivery Mailbox if not destination mailbox is assigned. | 
| 
 | 
 | 
| CCR Tree | For each Greeting Table you can assign a CCR Tree for each time of day. | 
| 
 | Assigning a CCR Tree to a Greeting Table is optional. You must build a | 
| 
 | CCR Tree before you can assign it to a Greeting Table. | 
| 
 | If you do not assign a CCR Tree to a Greeting Table the caller hears the | 
| 
 | greeting you assign and then hears the Auto Attendant menu. | 
| 
 | If you assign a CCR Tree to a Greeting Table the caller hears the greeting | 
| 
 | you assign and then hears the CCR Tree menu. | 
| 
 | 
 | 
| Business hours | Setting the Business Hours determines when each greeting is played for | 
| 
 | each Greeting Table. Business Hours are divided into Morning, Afternoon, | 
| 
 | Evening, and  | 
| 
 | week for each Greeting Table. | 
| 
 | To set up the days when your business is not open, set all the start times to | 
| 
 | 12:00 a.m. This ensures that the  | 
|
