extension can be located in an office or outside the office when a broadband connection
is used.

Automated Attendant (Menu)
To create an automated attendant use the system’s Menu function. The Menu function
routes calls to a destination in the system like a group, extension or another menu.
Destinations are selected from a drop-down list for each corresponding key-pad digit a
caller must select to get to their chosen destination. A Menu must have a Menu Prompt.
This is a recording that identifies for callers the destinations they may choose. For
example, a Menu Prompt might offer callers the option to press “1” for Sales, “2” for
Accounts Receivable or other digits for another department.

Voicemail and Unified Messaging
When an extension is created, a voicemail box for that extension is also created. A
voicemail box allows a caller to leave a message if a person is not available at the
extension. When dialing into a mailbox for the first time, a user must record their name
and a mailbox greeting. The name is used in the company’s dial-by-name directory when
selected from the auto attendant (menu). The greeting is played when they are not
available to take a call and a caller reaches their mailbox.
