Announcements can be played when:
Callers are waiting to be answered or queued against a hunt group:
With Voicemail Pro, the announcements and actions provided to a caller held in a group's queue can be customized using the Queued and Still Queued start points for that group. The call can be answered at any stage of the announcement. See Configuring Announcements .
Calls are going to be recorded:
In many locations, it is a local or national requirement to warn those involved in a call that they are being recorded. See Call Recording Warning .Call recording warning.
Calls are received:
A call flow containing an announcement can be created so that all callers hear a mandatory announcement. The announcement is played before the call is answered. See Mandatory Announcement Example .
Calls are queuing against a user's extension:
Users can configure their personal announcements. When a user's extension is busy, any new calls are held in a queue against the busy extension until the No Answer Time is reached. The caller will hear the user's personal announcement before being transferred to voicemail, if available. See Personal Announcements.
