Changing the Automated Attendant Menus
Creating and Changing Submenus
In the Automated Attendant Service menu structure, a submenu provides
additional options to callers when there are more options than can fit on the
Day or Night Main Menu. In submenus, as in main menus, the caller dials a
digit (Selector Code) in response to the submenu script. Automated Attendant
Service directs the caller to one of the following pre-defined destinations
based on the Selector Code entered:
■ An extension
■
Another submenu
■ An announcement
As the system administrator, you may find that you need to create new
submenus or change existing ones to meet changes in your company’s
business.
