Automated Attendant

AUTOMATED ATTENDANT

The automated attendant is a programmable feature that can be used to provide automated call

answering service. Calls can transfer, forward, or directly ring in to an automated attendant. A

Voice Processor is required for the Automated Attendant feature on the System. Calls to the

automated attendant application are processed as follows.

When an automated attendant answers a call, it plays a recording that gives dialing instruc-

tions. During or after the recording, the caller may then directly dial a station extension num-

ber, voice mail access number (if there is no associated mailbox), or hunt group pilot number.

Or, the caller may use the directory to look up the desired extension.
