SECTION 2

 

 

SPECIAL SYSTEM ID

 

 

FOR NUMBERED

 

 

GROUPS

You may allow subscribers to leave messages for message groups by

 

pressing numbers to identify the group, instead of spelling the group

 

name. To allow subscribers to do this, you enter a special System ID in the

 

ID for Num Groups field on Application Screen Page 6, and start each

 

group name with three digits (e.g., 234 Sales Department).

 

 

To send a message to a message group by number, a subscriber first

 

presses a special System ID for numbered groups, then the group

 

number. Because the numbers used for message groups may duplicate

 

other System IDs, the system uses the special System ID for numbered

 

groups to indicate when a subscriber is going to press a message group

 

number.

 

SECTION 3

 

 

RULES FOR SYSTEM

 

 

IDS

Callers enter System IDs from a touchtone telephone to tell the voice mail

 

system how to route the call or to identify themselves to the system. Each

 

System ID may have up to 10 digits. Most important, each System ID

must be unique. No two entities in the system can have the same System ID.

A System ID is usually entered and displayed as numbers on-screen. However, it can also be shown as letters or even include $. When $ is used, the System ID cannot be dialed from a telephone. This lets you hide System IDs from direct telephone access.

For systems using a lettered keypad map, the system translates letters in a System ID into the corresponding numbers on the telephone keypad. For example, on some keypads, touchtone 2 is associated with the letter A, B, or C.

If the system uses a lettered keypad map, remember that the touchtone numbers make a System ID unique, not the corresponding letters. For example, on the Q=7, Z=9 keypad map, the System ID SANDY is identical to the System RANDY, because each ID translates to the System ID 72639. Similarly, the System ID AAA is identical to BBB, because both translate to 222 in touchtones.
