via Settings or via a Dial Plan entry as described above and may inform a caller of a Department’s status
on a particular day, for example – “The Accounts Department is closed today. Please leave a message
and we will call you as soon as possible.” The second greeting, the permanent greeting, can be used to
give a message that can be used on any day, for example – “Thank you for calling the Accounts
Department. Sorry we are unable to take your call. Please leave a message and we will get back to you as
