Screening your calls

With Call Screening you can determine who is calling before you accept the call. Call Screening applies only to external calls transferred from the Automated Attendant or from Custom Call Routing (CCR). See your System Administrator for information on CCR.

You can use Call Screening if:

•Caller ID (CLID) is not available

•Caller ID is not a reliable indication of the caller identity

•your telephone does not have display capabilities

If Call Screening is enabled, CallPilot asks the caller to record their name after the tone. (If the caller presses •when they are asked to record their name, the call goes back to the Automated Attendant.) The caller hears a hold tone while they wait. If you do not answer, the call transfers to your mailbox.

Since some callers do not like to record their name and wait for service, use this feature with discretion.

To use Call Screening

1You receive an external call that is transferred from the Automated Attendant or from Custom Call Routing (CCR).

2CallPilot announces the caller’s name to you.

If the caller does not record their name, the voice prompt says, “Unknown caller.”

3You can answer the call or let the caller leave a message in your mailbox:

•press ANS or ⁄to answer the call

•press QUIT or •to transfer the call to your mailbox.
