Internal IDs
An internal ID is a special ID that cannot be entered using a phone keypad. To create an internal or hidden ID, use a $
(dollar sign) as the first character of the ID. The $ (dollar sign) cannot be entered using a phone keypad.
Internal IDs are used to route callers to voice detect boxes, transaction boxes, or interview boxes and preventing callers
from directly entering the voice detect box, transaction box, or interview box. So a public interview box with an ID of
$PM can take routed calls but cannot be reached using a phone.
Default System IDs
The messaging system comes with default system IDs. If any of the default system IDs are changed, the new ID must
replace the old ID in all the fields where the old ID appears. The following table lists all default system IDs and the
locations where they are found.
