316 CHAPTER 6: NBX MESSAGING
Auto Attendant Buttons
From the Menu Tree dialog box, you can configure the key pad button
actions presented to a caller by the Auto Attendant. For examples of how
you can use prompts and greetings in an Auto Attendant, see
Examples on page 313. Table 67 describes the fields of the Menu Tree
dialog box.
You can assign keypad actions to each button on a typical telephone key
pad, 0 through 9, #, and *. Table 68
describes the actions you can assign
to buttons. Most systems use no more than five action choices to avoid
confusing callers. If you need to present more than five choices, use
submenus to configure these additional options. See
Submenus” on
page 312
.
You can create an unannounced option by mapping a button without
creating a corresponding prompt. Callers do not hear a message that the
choice is available.
