Create an Alert

Use the Create an Alert dropdown to choose whether an alert is created when a call comes in, or when a voice message is left.


Call Simultaneously

Check Call Simultaneously to enable calling of all the group members simultaneously. This will send an alert to each team member and the first team member to answer and press 1 will accept the call. Uncheck to call members in sequence.  


Waiting Time

Enter a Waiting Time (In Seconds) Before Key Is Pressed To Accept The Call.  Here you will specify the waiting time (in seconds) before pressing a key to accept the call. This delay determines how long to wait before moving to the next team member if the first attempt goes unanswered.
