VANGARD Mail/i-Series Quick Setup Guide

Appendix A: Application Notes

Step 5. Change the Dial Action Table for Call Routing Mailbox 811 to pro-
vide the daytime dialing options.

By default, Dial Action Table 1 does not provide routing options for the digit 1 (Sales) or 2 (Ser-
vice). Consider directing these calls to the dispatchers or master numbers for Sales and Service, 
respectively. To do this:

From the 

Main Menu

, go to

 CU - Customize Database

, then 

DAT - Dial Action Table

You’ll see the prompts for Dial Action Table 1.

Press 

Enter

 until you see the prompt 

Action - UND

 for Key 1 Action.

Enter the option for key 1 that will direct callers to the Sales group.
For example, type 

UTRF

 and press

 Enter

 if you are setting up an Unscreened Transfer.

Enter the destination for key 1.
For example, enter the master number for the Sales Extension Hunting group.

Using these same steps, set up key 2 to route to the Service group.

Step 6. Program the telephone system to direct calls to the Automated 
Attendant during the day and at night.

In i-Series, for example, you would set up a DIL that routes to the Voice Mail master number (e.g., 
700) during the day and at night. Refer to your systems’s Software Manual for additional details.
