We had a request for a customer with a 3300 and embedded voicemail to be able to do the following.
Call comes in to a Ring group with two members. After 10 seconds,
Call Overflows to a Ring group with four members. After 10 seconds,
Call Overflows to a users personal mailbox (Not a group mailbox).
Once a call is in a ring group it is not affected by call rerouting locations, it just follows the ring group timers and overflows. It seems impossible to divert it straight into a phones individual mailbox without ringing the phone or having the phone on permanent call divert.
Here is what we did.
If you dial the voicemail pilot number and then dial #mailbox number you get dropped straight into the mailbox. Would this help? The target mailbox was 2020
We did the following.
Create a hunt group with no members and a pilot number of #2020
Set the reroute always on #2020 to be the voicemail huntgroup(5555)
Create an ACD skill group 8001
Create an ACD path assignment 8000. The settings to add to that path are;
Primary Agent Skill Group - 8001
Interflow Enabled - Yes
Interflow Timeout - 1 sec
Interflow Point Directory number - #2020
Create the second ring group 8051 with the four members in it and overflow it to 8000 (The ACD path)
Create the first ring group 8050 with the two members in it and oveflow it to 8051.
Point the DDI number at 8050.
The call follows the overflows and exists to an ACD path with no agents logged in. The ACD path interflows to group #2020 which being on reroute to voicemail, signals the #2020 to the voicemail, which dumps the call in mailbox 2020.
Painful isn't it!
Anyone who has a more elegant solution, we would be glad to receive your comments. But this at least works.
