Setting Up How Calls Come Into Your Business

All incoming phone calls are sent to a specific phone number in the system. Calls can be 
sent to individual phones, to an auto attendant, or to a call group. The first step is to 
make sure that your phones and phone numbers are set up the way you wish. To set up 
or change the incoming call routing for any phone number, click the 

Configure

 button 

on the 

Incoming Call Routing

 widget. On the left, you will see a list of all the phone 

numbers on your system. To add or update the call routing, simply click on the 

Edit

 

button, to the right of the phone number listed. Next, assign that phone number a 
name, like main phone number or sales department and select the appropriate business 
hours profile. These profiles can be set or updated in the 

Business Hours

 widget (See 

pg.10 for Business Hours). Now, simply move through the page to determine where 
you’d like the calls to go when that particular phone number is called throughout the day. 
You can have different call routes for when you are open for business, closed for the day 
or during lunch breaks or other special hours.

* Emergency override allows you to re-route your calls to a pre-determined business location, for example: 

mobile phones, other branch locations or a designated emergency override number to ensure that you do not 

experience any down time in the event of an emergency like a flood, storm or fire. Please make sure to 

complete the Emergency Override Routing for each phone number listed. Doing so will give you the ability to 

reroute calls with the single click of a button when it matters most.
