Set Up Call Routing
In this section, we will review all the features included in the Call Routing Detail screen.
To access call routing, click Configurations on the menu bar and select Call Routing. Select the phone number/line you'd like to configure within your environment.
To block unwanted calls, send a list of unwanted caller numbers to Support@AlertOps.com.
- Enter an Incoming Call Routing Description to name your Call Routing number. This will be used as the Source for Alerts generated by calls.
- Check Enabled to enable this line. Uncheck to disable.
- For Call Connection, toggle between Call Forward or Leave Voice Message.
- Check Auto Attendant to enable callers to navigate between teams using a digit/key. Use Routing Key Assignment to assign a unique digit/key for each Team/Group.
- Or, if you are not using Auto Attendant, next to Forward Call To, select a Group for the calls to be forwarded to.
- Select an Escalation Policy for calls
- Select a preferred Language from the drop-down menu. This will cause the message to be read in the chosen language. Note, for best results, type the message in the chosen language, to avoid any translation issues.
- Check Show Caller ID to see a caller ID when receiving a call. Uncheck to disable Caller ID. When disabled, the Routing Number will be displayed in the Caller ID, allowing for easy identification by team members.
- Under Welcome Message enter a customized greeting to play for the caller. Or, upload a Custom Recording (MPEG, wav, or aif format) to play a pre-recorded welcome message for the caller.
