QPrompt recipient for password. If checked, the person who picks up the phone hears, “Call for <your voice title>. Please connect me.” To be connected to the caller, you must enter your TeleVantage password. Entering a password ensures that only you can receive your forwarded calls.

This option works only when calls are forwarded to an external number and when you have a voice title for yourself recorded. If you have not recorded a voice title, TeleVantage ignores your selection of this option. See “Recording your voice title” on page 2-2.

QPrompt recipient to accept or decline call. If checked, when you pick up the phone at an external number, TeleVantage announces the caller (“Call from”) and intended recipient (“Call for”) and asks you to accept or decline the call. Declined calls proceed to the next action in your routing list, usually your voicemail.

The call announcing prompt loops, so you might not hear it from the beginning when you pick up the phone. Press any key on your phone other than 1 or 2 to start the prompt at the beginning.

This option is used only when forwarding calls to an external number. When forwarding to an internal extension, your normal call announcing settings are used. See “Customizing or turning off call announcing” on page 18-6.

QIgnore call rules and use Standard routing list. Check to send all your incoming calls to the specified number, regardless of any call rules or routing lists that you have created that might otherwise send a call to a different number. If you have not created custom call rules or routing lists, you do not need to check this box.

This setting disables your call rules and uses the Standard routing list for all calls. See “Using routing lists” on page 15-7 for an explanation of routing lists and Chapter 17 for an explanation of call rules.
