User Announcements AVAYA IP Office
Announcements are played to callers waiting to be answered. This includes callers being presented to hunt group members, ie. ringing, and callers queued for presentation.
· IP Office 4.0+ supports announcements using Embedded Voicemail.
· 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 to be used effectively, the hunt group's Voicemail Answer Time must be extended or Voicemail On must be unselected.

· Wait before 1st announcement: Default = 10 seconds. Range = 0 to 9999 seconds.
