Call Transfer

Transfer calls to subscriber?

Indicate if call transfer should be turned on (Y/N). When call transfer is turned on for a subscriber, the voice mail system transfers incoming calls to the subscriber extension. The subscriber can turn call transfer on or off from any touchtone telephone.

If you select N, outside callers may still leave a message in the subscriber voice mailbox, but they cannot directly reach the subscriber extension without going through the operator. Select N if the subscriber uses voice mail only.

Call transfer type

Select the call transfer type that the voice mail system uses for the subscriber. The voice mail system can transfer a call to a subscriber using ￿Await Answer, Release, or Wait for Ringback.

If the extension is busy or does not answer within the specified number of rings, the voice mail system plays the extension greeting

￿and then takes an action (usually take message). Release

The voice mail system puts the caller on hold, dials the extension and then releases the call to the NEC telephone system. The voice mail system does not check the progress of the call or the status of the called extension. If the extension is busy or is not answered, the caller can leave a message only when the telephone system supports Call Forward to Personal Greeting.

Releasing a call to an extension clears the voice mail system port to take other calls. However, the subscriber cannot hold or screen calls.
