VMS Hunt Delay (#506)

Description

This System Programming procedure determines when outside calls should be answered by the Automated Attendant Service of the voice messaging system. You can set the system for either immediate call handling (after the second ring) or delayed call handling (after the fourth ring). Delayed call handling gives the receptionist an opportunity to answer calls before they go to the Automated Attendant Service.
