Using Multiple Auto-Attendants

You may wish to set one or more additional phones to act as Auto-Attendant for when the primary Auto-Attendant is turned off or busy.

An Auto-Attendant is busy when someone at that extension is:

programming the phone, or

accessing messages, or

on an intercom call, or

dialing from the Directory or Call History, or

using any of the lines to make or answer a call, or

when the D-TAD is recording a message at that extension.

You can choose a particular extension to always be the primary Auto-Attendant by setting that extension to have the shortest pickup time and setting the pickup times of other Auto-Attendants in the order you choose. Otherwise, the primary Auto-Attendant could change as the system automatically assigns incoming calls among active Auto-Attendants.

NOTE: When multiple Auto-Attendants are used, program the pickup times with at least three seconds between them to avoid more than one Auto- Attendant trying to pick up a single call at the same time. To program pickup times see “Set Auto-Attendant Pickup Delay”in SET UP SYSTEM FEATURES.
