Turning Your Alternate Greeting On or Off by Using Voice Commands
Procedure
Step 1
Call and sign in to Connection.
Step 2
When Connection asks, "What do you want to do," say either:
"Turn on my alternate greeting" (greeting is left on indefinitely) or "Turn on alternate greeting until
<date> at <time>."
Or
"Turn off my alternate greeting."
Changing Greetings
When you turn on a personal greeting, you specify how long you want it available for use. Cisco Unity
Connection plays the greeting in the applicable situation until the date and time that you specified, and then
the greeting is automatically turned off. For example, you can set your alternate greeting to stop playing on
the day that you return from a vacation.
You can also set a greeting to play indefinitely, which is useful when you turn on the busy or closed greeting.
You select from one of the following sources to specify what callers hear when a greeting is on:
Connection plays a greeting that you record.Rerecord This Greeting
Recording a greeting does not turn it
on.
Note
Connection plays a prerecorded greeting along with your recorded name
(for example, "Sorry, <your name> is not available"). If you do not have a
System Greeting
recorded name, Connection uses text-to-speech to read your display name
instead. When a greeting is on but not recorded, Connection plays a
prerecorded system greeting.
You can turn off a greeting at any time. When a greeting is off, Connection no longer plays it, though the
recording is not erased.
If you record a personal greeting then set the greeting to use the system greeting, your recording is no
longer available by phone. Record and enable a new personal greeting.
