VMS Hunt Delay (#506)
Description
This feature applies only if you have a voice messaging system.
This System Programming procedure determines when outside calls should be
answered by the Automated Attendant Service of the voice messaging system.
You can set the system for either immediate call handling (after the second ring) or
delayed call handling (after the fourth ring). Delayed call handling gives the
receptionist an opportunity to answer calls before they go to the Automated
Attendant Service.
