Overview:
The system includes a set of four pre-recorded prompts. You can record new
prompts to replace the default prompts, and you can add more prompts, up to a
total of 20. You also can combine multiple prompts into a single prompt sequence
for use in your AA menus.
•
AA default prompts:
The system includes four default prompts in the
language that is selected on the
Regional Settings
page. Prompt 1
:
“If you
know your party’s extension, you may enter it now.” Prompt 2
:
“Your call has
been forwarded.” Prompt 3
:
“Not a valid extension. Please try
again.” Prompt 4
:
“Good-bye.”
IMPORTANT:
Prompt #2 will play when a Direct Extension Dial transfer is
initiated. If you change this prompt, record a message that is appropriate for
that purpose.
•
Examples of custom prompts:
You may want to replace the default
recording for Prompt 1 with a greeting that includes your company name or
that includes special menu choices (for example, “Press 1 for Sales. Press 2
for Service.”). You may want to add a new prompt that is used for the initial
greeting when your business is closed.
