Route Calls To - Default Destinations Options (including dial features)
Whenever you see the ‘Route calls to’ or Destinations in IVRs, please note that there are always several options that you can choose, but not all options are available in all parts of the portal (this is to make it easier to navigate the system). We have limited the option to select the destinations you will require for the action you perform. ALL routing options are available on the the feature codes, as these are used for internal routing. If you need an option on the 'Route calls' page, you're on, and it's not a common one available. Then, make the 'Route calls' go to a feature code where ALL 'Route calls' options can be found.
Using these features in feature codes will allow you to set up pre-determined codes that users can dial to perform different features on the system.
|
External Destinations |
|
| Call back |
This function will call the number in the ‘call back to number’ and set up a remote access service. This will ask the caller to dial the number they wish to call, followed by the hash (#) key. Example: |
| Fax to email | This will answer in a fax tone and communicate with an incoming fax machine sending a document. It will then convert it to a PDF and send it to the email address/es inserted in the box below. This is a great way to port an old fax number into the system and receive fax documents directly by email. |
| Number | This will forward a call or dial the number displayed in the box in the example above. Example: You may have a UK geographical Number you wish to deliver to a mobile number. This will send the dialled Feature Code, IVR selection, or the original number to the chosen number. |
| SIP URI |
This destination will route the call to an external destination over the internet or IP network. |
| My features | |
| Ask Web URL |
This works with the feature Web URLs found under Features Advanced. When dialled, the request is sent to Example: |
| Conference, administrator |

| Conference, ask for PIN. |
This will take you to the desired conference, where you will be asked for your PIN. Enter your PIN, and you will gain access. Example: This is ideal if you frequently use conferences and need simple access as the administrator directly into a conference. Set up a feature code, and you can dial it straight in. Then, enter your PIN to gain access. |
| Conference, listen |
This will take you straight into the desired conference as a listener to the conference. It won’t ask for any PIN. |
| Conference, talk |
This will take you straight into the desired conference as a talk participant. It won’t ask for any PIN. Example: If you attend many conferences and need access as a talking participant directly into a conference, set up |
| Extension |
When called, it will be delivered to the desired Example: |
| Fax to mailbox |
This will answer in a fax tone and communicate with an incoming fax machine sending a document. It will then convert the document to a PDF and send it to the desired mailbox. If the Mailbox has an owner, it will email the document to the mailbox owner and keep a stored copy in the fax mailbox. Example: This is a great way to port an old fax number into the system, receive fax documents directly to email, and keep a copy in the fax mailbox. |
| Feature code |
This will allow the destination to be delivered to a Feature Code. It is not recommended to point a Feature Code to another Feature Code, but you could use this to deliver destinations from an IVR. When a call comes to an IVR, you can choose Feature Codes, which may perform other functions. |
| Hunt group |
This will deliver the dialled destination to the chosen Hunt Group. Shown in the example above. Example: This can route |
| IVR Menu |
As shown in the example above, this will deliver the dialled number to Example: |
| Mailbox |
This will send the caller directly to the chosen mailbox so the caller can leave a message. Example: |

| Pattern Menu |
When called, it will be delivered to the desired Pattern Menu as shown in the example above. Example: You may have a number pointed to a pattern menu. The person calling needs to enter a matching PIN before continuing the call. This is an excellent way to offer premium support and provide customers with PIN. |
| Queue |
When called, it will direct the caller to the chosen Queue. For direct routing from a Number, to direct a call to a Queue via an IVR or Feature Code. Example: |
| Queue: Log in to a Specific Queue |
This would usually be used via a Feature Code, allowing a handset user to log in to a particular queue. Example: If you have multiple Queues and want an agent to log in to a particular Queue, you can set up different Feature Codes for each Queue. |
| Queue: Log Out from a Specific Queue |
This would typically be used via a Feature Code, allowing a handset user to log out of a particular Queue. Example: |
| Voicemail, specific mailbox with PIN |
When dialled, this routed the call to a mailbox where you can listen to the messages. You must enter the mailbox's PIN to hear the messages. Example: If you had a |
| Voicemail, specific mailbox without PIN |
When dialled, this will take you straight into the mailbox to listen to the messages. It will not ask you to confirm the mailbox's PIN. Example: If you have a mailbox that you want everyone on the customer's setup to access, this is a great way to manage it. |
| Predefined features | |
| Auto-attendant |
The caller can dial the Extension or Feature Code plus the hash key. In this case, there will be no announcement. Example: |

| Queue: Toggle availability in queues |
This Feature code will allow a simple login and logout under one code. This Queue toggle is perfect if you want agents to dial one code to perform both functions.
