Voicemail Pro Actions: Telephony Actions

4.7.9 Assisted Transfer

The Assisted Transfer action transfers the caller to the specified number which can include IP Office short codes. The caller hears either music on hold if installed. The transfer is not blind, if the call receives busy or no answer then it returns to follow the appropriate connection.

This action is intended primarily for use with internal transfer destinations for which the IP Office can track the status of the call. If used with external transfer destinations, the ability to detect whether the call has been answered or not depends on the signalling provided. For example if the call is transferred using an analog line, the IP Office can only assume that the call has been answered.

On systems with IP trunks and extensions and especially within an IP Office Small Community Network there may be a short delay to connect the speech path when an assisted transfer is answered.

By default internal caller's have Low priority while the priority of external callers is set by the IP Office Incoming Call Route used to route the call (default also Low).
