Feature codes

Feature codes are short outside number ( cell phone), from within the system.

For example, you can set "456" to forward to a voicemail. For example, *1 is often set to allow direct access to voicemail without a password, and *2 asks for a mailbox and password.

To add a new feature code

1. Log in to the Mypbxadmin.com web interface.
2. Go to Features » Feature codes.
3. Click the "New" button.
4. Enter the following:
   --> The feature code number that you are creating.
   --> Optionally a description for this feature code.
   --> The owner. This person may edit the feature code even if they are not an administrator.
   --> Whether to screen calls. If set to yes, the person answering will be asked if they wish to accept the call.
   --> Whether this feature code may be entered in the auto attendant and Welcome Greeting menus.
   --> Optionally force the caller name. This allows users on a IP Phone to see which feature code the call came from.
   --> Optionally hang up the call after a certain number of minutes.
   --> The destination to route calls to this feature code to.
5. Click the "Save" button.
6. If you wish to set an announcement message before the Feature code destination is called, go back into the Feature code settings, and upload a .wav file.

If you wish to route to different destinations at different times of the day or days of the week:

1. Make the feature code.
2. If routing by time, make a time group.
3. Go back into the feature code settings.
4. Click the "Add a caller route" or "Add a time group" button.
5. Choose the caller prefix or time group, and the destination.
6. Click the "Save" button.
7. Repeat for any other time groups as desired.
