4.7.7 Customizing Announcements

The announcements and actions provided to a caller can be customized using the Queued and Still Queued start points.

The Queued start point replaces the default Announcement 1.

The Still Queued start point replaces the default Announcement 2.

It is important to note that unconnected results in Queued and Still Queued call flows will return the caller to the queue rather than disconnect them. An attempt to return the caller using a Transfer or similar action places the caller at the back of the queue as a new call.

Use of customized start point call flows for Queued and Still Queued is not recommended if the Synchronize Calls option is enabled for the hunt group in the IP Office configuration. If this is the case, the only options supported by Voicemail Pro is the playing of prompts.

1.In the Start Points Navigation pane, select Groups. If necessary add a Queued start point group.

2.Select the group's Queued start point.
