Access to subscribers and guests

Numeric Access

￿￿￿￿￿￿￿￿￿

The voice mail system is flexible enough to allow subscribers to leave messages for subscribers, guests, and message groups by pressing either numbers or letters. This chapter describes how a system is set up for numeric access.

SECTION 1

SET UP THE

SYSTEM FOR

NUMERIC ACCESS ￿Areas of the system affected if numeric access is used include:

The Access field on subscriber Personal Directory pages should contain E. With E, the system asks the subscriber for an extension number to leave messages for other subscribers or guests. You also can set numeric access as the default for new subscribers added to the system

￿by adding E to the Access field on Application screen Page 5. Access to message groups

Set up a special System ID for numbered message groups. Subscribers press this special System ID before they leave a message for a numbered message group. Set this ID on Line 59 of Application screen Page 6, in the field labeled ID for Num Groups. For details, refer to Chapter 22 Section 2 Special System ID for Numbered Groups.

Verify that the first three characters of each message group name are numbers. A message group name is displayed in the upper left corner of the Groups Screen. To leave a message for a message group, subscribers press these three numbers. The group number should also be in the group recorded name (e.g., Group 234: Sales Department). For

￿details, refer to Chapter 9 Section 7 Message Groups on page 9-18. Numeric directory assistance

Numeric directory assistance allows outside callers to find a subscriber extension number without spelling the name. For details, refer to Chapter 3 Directory Assistance. (You can use numeric directory assistance even on systems that do not use numeric access.)
