To let callers leave messages, write this vector (step 7):
Redirecting calls during an emergency or holiday
You can provide a quick way for a supervisor or agent to redirect calls during an
emergency or holiday. Use a special mailbox where you can easily change
announcements. This vector is also an alternative to makin g sure all agents log ou t
before leaving their phones.
In our example, no agents are normally logged in to split 10. We ’l l use spl it 10 f or
an emergency. We preset buttons on our agents’ phones so people with these
phones can log in at the touch of a button.
To quickly redirect calls:
1. Create a special mailbox with the appropriate announcement such as “We
are unable to answer your call at this time” or “Today is a holiday, please
call back tomorrow.”
In our example, we recorded the mailbox greeting for extension 2001.
2. Insert the following bold steps (steps 1, 10, and 11).
Refer to ‘‘Inserting a step’’ on page 165 for more infor mation.
