Creating a New Auto Attendant
An auto attendant is an automated call handling menu structured with audio prompts to direct callers
through the available menu options (or digit actions). The auto attendant must have an introductory
greeting that describes the digit actions, such as “For Sales, press 2.” It is best to map out the auto attendant
digit actions prior to setup. See Figure 50 on page 68 for a diagram of auto attendant structure.
Creating a new auto attendant may require assistance from your system administrator. Refer to Modifying
Auto Attendant Greetings on page 62 for instructions on perfecting an existing auto attendant greeting.
