Handling Incoming Calls
Setting up Basic Call Coverage
This chapter shows you how to set up call coverage for incoming calls to be sure that incoming calls are
answered when the called party is not available.
Basic incoming call coverage:
•
provides for automatic redirection of calls to alternate destinations when the called party is not
available or not accepting calls
•
provides the order in which Avaya Communication Manager redirects calls to alternate phones or
terminals
•
establishes up to 6 alternate termination points for an incoming call
•
establishes redirection criteria that govern when a call redirects
•
redirects calls to a local telephone number (extension) or an off-switch telephone number (public
network)
Call coverage allows an incoming call to redirect from its original destination to an extension, hunt
group, attendant group, uniform call distribution (
UCD
) group, direct department calling (
DDC
) group,
automatic call distribution (
ACD
) split, coverage answer group,
Audio Information Exchange (AUDIX)
,
or vector for a station not accepting calls.
