, the VMS Auto Attendant will transfer the call to the mailbox of the
extension, if assigned, or take the caller back to the home node.
• Take caller to Mailbox: When the caller dials the extension number, the VMS Auto Attendant will
check if the extension number has a mailbox assigned and transfer the call to the mailbox of the
extension.
• Transfer immediately: When the caller dials the extension number, the VMS Auto Attendant will
transfer the call on the extension without checking whether it is busy or free.
• Transfer when extension rings: When the caller dials the extension number, the VMS Auto Attendant
will wait for the extension to start ringing and then transfer the call.
If the extension is busy the VMS Auto Attendant will transfer the call to the mailbox of the extension, if
assigned, or take the caller back to the home node.
• Transfer when extension permits: The VMS Auto Attendant prompts the caller to record his/her
name. It puts the caller on hold and places the call on the desired extension. If the extension is free and
answers the call, the VMS announces the caller’s name to the extension user and prompts the
extension user to choose whether or not to speak to the caller. If the extension user chooses to talk, the
VMS transfers the call.
If the extension user chooses not to talk, the VMS transfers the call to the mailbox of the extension
user, if assigned, and asks the caller to leave a message.
Default: Transfer when extension answers for Day and Night.
5. Enable Announce Name, if you want the VMS Auto Attendant to announce the extension user’s name to
the caller when transferring the call to the extension. Default: Disabled.
When you enable Announce Name, make sure you record the extension user’s name on the VMS. For
instructions, see “Recording Station Names”.
