Using the Telephony Manager Applications
Using Auto-Task Manager
Auto-Task Manager is an application that enables you to specify criteria (for example, incoming call or outgoing call, calling party number, calling party name, called party number, called party name, or call prompting digits) that will “trigger” tasks to run automatically. For example, suppose you wanted to have certain incoming calls redirected to another extension. Using Auto-Task Manager, you could specify the calls using the person’s name or phone number, and then set those calls to trigger a “redirect” task. The criteria and tasks you specify are know as “auto-tasks.”
Once you create auto-tasks, you add them to an auto-task group, which you can use with Telephony Manager. When an auto-task group is activated (that is, selected to be used by Telephony Manager), any calls you make or receive while Telephony Manager is running will be checked to see if they match the criteria you specified for any of the auto-tasks in the selected auto- task group. Telephony Manager checks the criteria of the auto-tasks in the selected auto-task group in the order in which the auto-tasks are listed in the auto-task group. The first auto-task that matches the criteria (if any) is then run (that is, the actions for the specified auto-task are performed).
You can create a maximum of 200 auto-tasks and 100 auto-task groups. An auto-task can consist of a maximum of 16 actions.
