Announcements
Announcements are played to callers waiting to be answered. This includes callers being
presented to hunt group members, for example, ringing and callers queued for presentation.
• If no voicemail channel is available for an announcement, the announcement is not
played.
• Calls can be answered during the announcement.
• If a call is rerouted to a hunt group's Night Service Group or Out of Service Fallback Group,
the announcements of the new group are applied.
• If a call overflows, the announcements of the original group are still applied, not those of
the overflow group.
• For announcements configured for hunt groups to be used effectively, the hunt group's
Voicemail Answer Time must be extended or Voicemail On must be unselected.
• For announcements configured for users to be used effectively, the user's No Answer
Time must be extended or Voicemail On must be unselected.
