Introduction
Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging works with the Enterprise Edge system to
provide an automated receptionist service. Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging
answers incoming calls, routes them to extensions and mailboxes in the system, and
provides message taking capability.
This chapter describes:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Enterprise Edge telephones
Enterprise Edge one line display telephones
You can use Enterprise Edge one line display telephones for most Enterprise Edge
Voice Messaging sessions. If you use an Enterprise Edge one line display
telephone, the display shows the Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging display
command line. The Enterprise Edge one line display telephone does not show the
display button options.
On an Enterprise Edge one line display telephone, all options are given immediately
by the voice prompts. You make selections using the dialpad only. You do not need
to wait for the voice prompt to complete the option list. You can interrupt the voice
prompt and make your selection immediately.

Enterprise Edge two line display telephones
Enterprise Edge two line display telephones show you Enterprise Edge Voice
Messaging commands and options. All system administration tasks, such as setting
up a Group List, require a two line display telephone.
Enterprise Edge two line displays can show up to three display button options at
once. In cases where there are more options, wait for the voice prompt to state the
other available options. If you know the corresponding dialpad number for the
option you want, you can press it any time during the voice prompt.
Press • to return to the previous display prompt.
An example of the Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging two line display is shown in
the following illustration.

Alternate extensions
You can have up to two Alternate extensions for your mailbox. If a caller dials the
main extension (an extension that has Alternate extensions assigned), the call rings
only at the main extension.
If the call is not answered and a message is left, a message indicator appears at the
main extension and at the Alternate extension(s). You can access the message from
the Alternate extension(s) with ƒ·°⁄ the same way that you access
messages from your main extension telephone. Only an extension without a
mailbox assigned to it can be used as an Alternate extension.
If an Alternate extension is assigned to a telephone that has Caller ID (CLID) and
Display Caller enabled, CLID information displays and an audible tone occurs at all
telephones when the call goes to Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging. (For
on page 50.) The message can be intercepted using the Interrupt Feature,
ƒ·°‡, at any telephone as long as the caller is still leaving a
message.

Enterprise Edge ATA 2
You cannot use a telephone attached to an Enterprise Edge ATA 2 for Enterprise
Edge Voice Messaging System Administration tasks.
There is no Message Waiting Notification if you are using a telephone connected to
an Enterprise Edge ATA 2.
To access Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging features such as Leave Message or
Open Mailbox, call the Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging extension and follow the
voice prompts. You can determine the Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging extension
by pressing ƒ·°fi from any Enterprise Edge telephone equipped
with a display.
You can also press:
•
•
˚•·°⁄ to open your mailbox
or
˚•·°‚ to leave a message and follow the voice prompts.
Entering characters on the Enterprise Edge dialpad
The buttons on your Enterprise Edge telephone dialpad act as both numbers and
letters. Each button represents a number and also represents letters of the alphabet.
You can enter a maximum of 16 characters on the command line of the Enterprise
Edge dialpad. The display shows up to16 characters. The prompt remains on the
display if you enter fewer than ten characters.
If you enter information where the prompt and the information is fewer than 16
characters, you can see both the prompt and the information you enter.
An example of a display with fewer than 16 characters, where the command line
prompt remains on the display is the Pswd command line prompt.

Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging voice prompts
All Enterprise Edge telephones provide voice prompts.
The voice prompt tells you the dialpad button to press to use Enterprise Edge Voice
Messaging options. Voice prompts provide the same options as display buttons.
Prompts also provide options that do not appear on the display. If you use an
Enterprise Edge two line display telephone, you can use either the display button or
the dialpad button to access the option.
On an Enterprise Edge one line display telephone the voice prompt plays
immediately. If you do not choose an option after five seconds, the voice prompt
replays the options. If you still do not choose an option, Enterprise Edge Voice
Messaging ends the session.
On an Enterprise Edge two line display telephone the voice prompt plays after a five
second delay. If you do not choose an option, Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging
ends the session.
Interrupting a voice prompt
You can interrupt a voice prompt by selecting any option on the display or dialpad.
You can also interrupt a voice prompt by pressing £. You cannot interrupt a voice
prompt that is informing you of an error.

Automated Attendant
The Automated Attendant acts as a receptionist for incoming calls. When enabled,
the Automated Attendant answers your company’s incoming telephone lines
depending on the time of day. If callers know which option they want, they can
interrupt the Automated Attendant by entering their selection on the dialpad of any
tone-dial telephone.
The Automated Attendant provides callers with voice prompt commands associated
with each of the following options:
•
•
•
•
•
•
entering a mailbox number
entering the extension
using the Company Directory
leaving a message
reaching the Operator
selecting an Alternate Language* (not a voice prompt)
* If your Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging system is installed with bilingual
capabilities, the caller can press · to listen to the Automated Attendant in the
Alternate Language.
When a caller selects an option, the Automated Attendant responds to the command
either by routing the call to an extension or mailbox within your company, or by
directing the caller to the Company Directory or the Operator.
The caller listens and then selects the option they want to use.
Types of mailboxes
A mailbox is a storage place for messages. A Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging
system can have up to 1,000 mailboxes. There are three types of mailboxes:
•
•
•
Personal
Information
Special
Most users have personal mailboxes.
Personal mailbox
A personal mailbox is assigned by the System Administrator and is maintained by
the mailbox owner. A personal mailbox can be a user or a guest mailbox.
User mailbox
A user mailbox can be assigned to each mailbox owner who has an operating
Enterprise Edge extension.
P0911621 Issue 02
Enterprise Edge 2.0 Voice Messaging Reference Guide
1 4 Using Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging
Guest mailbox
Guest mailboxes provide temporary employees and guests with access to internal
messaging and call routing features. Guest mailboxes do not have an operating
extension. They are assigned a number that looks and works like an extension. This
lets the guest mailbox owner access Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging the same
way a mailbox owner accesses their mailbox from another extension or telephone.
If you need a guest mailbox, request one from the System Administrator.
Information mailbox
Information mailboxes play informative messages to callers. Information
mailboxes do not have an operating Enterprise Edge extension, and callers cannot
leave a message in them. A voice prompt provides callers with access to
Information mailboxes. An Information mailbox is reached through the Automated
Attendant, Custom Call Routing (CCR) or the Operator. For more information,
Information mailboxes are created by the System Administrator, and are maintained
by either the System Administrator or a mailbox owner.
Special mailboxes
Special mailboxes are set up automatically when the Enterprise Edge Voice
Messaging system is initialized.
The Special mailboxes include:
•
•
General Delivery mailbox
System Administrator mailbox
General Delivery mailbox
The General Delivery mailbox is used:
•
•
•
to collect messages from callers who use a rotary dial telephone
for individuals in your company who do not have personal mailboxes
for mailbox owners whose mailboxes are full. For more information, refer to the
The receptionist or System Administrator sends messages left in the General
Delivery mailbox to the appropriate mailbox owner. For more information about
the General Delivery mailbox, refer to Default mailbox numbers for the General
System Administrator mailbox
This mailbox is used by your System Administrator as a personal mailbox. You can
leave messages for your company’s System Administrator in this mailbox.
Ask your System Administrator for the mailbox number.

Mailbox Password
Your password is from four to eight digits long and cannot start with zero. When
you initialize Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging, the default mailbox password is
four zeros (0000). You are prompted to change this password.
It is recommended that you change your password every 30 days. By changing your
password regularly, you decrease the chance that someone can discover your
password and gain access to your system.
Keep a written copy of your password in a safe place, and avoid giving it to your
co-workers. Your mailbox password is used to keep your voice messages private
and confidential. For security reasons, it is a good idea to choose an uncommon
password (not a predictable password like 1234 or 1111). If someone else knows
your password, they can access your mailbox and listen to or delete your messages.
They can also access your Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging system and use it
fraudulently or disrupt service.
Changing your mailbox password
You can change your mailbox password at any time. Remember to choose a
password from four to eight digits long that does not start with zero.
To change your password:

Company Directory
The Company Directory is a list of mailbox owners on the Enterprise Edge Voice
Messaging system. Before you can use your mailbox to receive messages, you must
record your name in the Company Directory. It is a good idea to include your
mailbox number in your Company Directory recording. For example “Paul Wayne,
mailbox 5813”.
This establishes your “voice” name in a directory that is used by other Enterprise
Edge Voice Messaging users and outside callers who use the Company Directory.
If you do not want your name in the Company Directory, tell your System
Administrator. The Company Directory feature can be disabled by the System
Administrator. If you do not know whether you have this feature, ask your System
Administrator.

Introduction
This chapter describes mailbox greetings and how to record them. This chapter
includes:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Types of mailbox greetings
The two types of greetings are:
•
Personal mailbox greetings (which include Primary, Alternate, and
Personalized greetings)
•
Information mailbox greetings
Personal mailbox greetings
Personal mailbox greetings play to callers who reach your mailbox. Greetings
inform callers that they have reached the correct mailbox and give callers any
necessary information or instructions. You can change the greetings at any time.
After you initialize your mailbox, you can record your greetings. If you do not
record any Personal greetings, your Company Directory name recording plays to
callers who reach your mailbox. Refer to Recording or changing your name in the
There are three types of Personal mailbox greetings: Primary, Alternate and
Personalized.
Recording technique for personal mailbox greetings
When you record your Personal greetings, remember to speak clearly and at a pace
that is easy to understand. After you record a greeting, you can replay it before you
accept it. You can record or change a greeting from any Enterprise Edge telephone
or, if you are away from the office, from any touch tone phone. When you record a
greeting, do not use the Handsfree feature. You have better results if you speak
directly into the handset.
P0911621 Issue 02
Enterprise Edge 2.0 Voice Messaging Reference Guide
2 6 Greetings
Primary mailbox greeting
Record your Primary mailbox greeting for everyday use. In this greeting include
your name and a brief message explaining to callers that you are unable to answer
their calls. For example:
“Hi. This is Paul Wayne. I’m not able to take your call right now. Please leave me
a message at the tone and I will return your call as soon as possible.”
If you are a new mailbox owner, record your Primary mailbox greeting
immediately.
Alternate mailbox greeting
The Alternate mailbox greeting is normally used for special circumstances. For
example:
“Hi. This is Paul Wayne. I am out of the office until Thursday, the 17th of
December. Although I am out of the office, I do check my mailbox daily. Please
leave me a message at the tone and I will return your call as soon as possible. Thank
you.”
After it is recorded, you must choose which greeting you want Enterprise Edge
Voice Messaging to play. You can change the selection at any time, and as often as
needed.
Personalized mailbox greeting
Personalized mailbox greetings are available only if your company subscribes to the
Caller ID (CLID) service from your local telephone company. For more
information about CLID, ask your System Administrator.
A Personalized mailbox greeting plays to callers based on the caller’s phone
number. Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging recognizes the assigned incoming
phone number and plays the Personalized mailbox greeting. For example:
“Hi Susan. I may have missed your call, but I don’t want to miss meeting you for
lunch. See you at noon.”
Enterprise Edge 2.0 Voice Messaging Reference Guide
P0911621 Issue 02
Greetings 2 7
Information mailbox greetings
Information mailboxes greetings provide messages and announcements to callers.
A caller is automatically disconnected after listening to an Information mailbox
greeting. Information mailboxes can be used to:
•
•
•
announce sales
provide product lists
announce special events
For example:

Recording a Personalized mailbox greeting
If your company subscribes to a CLID service, you can record a Personalized
mailbox greeting. For more information about CLID, ask your System
Administrator. A Personalized mailbox greeting plays only for a person calling
from the phone number that you designate. For the Personalized mailbox greeting
to play, the phone number you enter must match the caller’s phone number exactly.
You can record up to three Personalized mailbox greetings, but each greeting can
be assigned to only one phone number.
If you record a Personalized greeting, program your mailbox to receive messages
and choose an Alternate mailbox greeting, the Personalized greeting takes

Recording an Information mailbox greeting
Before you record an Information mailbox greeting, you must determine what the
greeting includes. As you prepare your greeting, be sure to include important times
and dates. Write the greeting down and practice reading it aloud. When you are
confident the greeting includes everything you want it to, record the greeting. If you
are using an Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging system with bilingual capability,
you must record the Information mailbox greeting in both languages.
An Information mailbox greeting can be either a Primary or an Alternate mailbox
greeting. Perform the steps in Recording a Primary or Alternate mailbox greeting
on page 27 to record an Information mailbox greeting.
Note: In order to record an Alternate Information mailbox greeting, your system
must be configured as Bilingual. Ask your System Administrator if your
system is configured as Bilingual.

Introduction
This chapter describes accessing your messages and explains the following related
topics:
•
•
•
•
Receiving calls
Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging can be used by any outside caller and by other
mailbox owners in your company. When you are away from the office, you can use
Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging with any touch tone phone. When you are at the
office, you can use Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging from any Enterprise Edge
telephone connected to your company’s Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging system.
Even outside callers who use a rotary dial telephone can use Enterprise Edge Voice
Messaging. If a caller uses Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging from a rotary dial
telephone, the system transfers the call to your company receptionist or the
Operator. If a receptionist or the Operator is not available to answer the call, the call
transfers to the General Delivery mailbox.
Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging Never Full mailbox feature
The Never Full mailbox feature lets external callers leave a message in your
mailbox, even if the mailbox is technically “full”. The message is stored in your
mailbox, but cannot be accessed until you delete at least one existing message to
allow space for the new message. If you attempt to listen to any new messages
before deleting an existing message, you hear this voice announcement:
“Your mailbox is full. You must erase some messages before you can listen to new
messages.”
If your mailbox is full, you cannot leave a message in another mailbox, create a new
message, copy, send, or reply to a message, until you delete at least one existing
message.
The Never Full mailbox feature is not available to internal callers. Internal callers
cannot leave messages in mailboxes that are technically “full”.

Messaging session. An erased message remains in your mailbox until you end the
current Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging session.

Call Screening
Call Screening lets you determine who is calling before you accept the call. It
applies only to external calls transferred from the Automated Attendant or from
Custom Call Routing (CCR). See your System Administrator for information on
CCR.
Call Screening is useful in the following circumstances:
•
•
•
if CLID is not available
if CLID is not a reliable indication of the caller identity
if your Enterprise Edge telephone does not have display capabilities
The System Administrator enables the Call Screening feature for your Enterprise
Edge Voice Messaging system.
If Call Screening is unavailable, the call transfers immediately for the following
types of calls:
•
•
•
internal calls
external calls placed directly to your phone number
external calls for which you have established a Personalized greeting
How to use Call Screening
To use the Call Screening feature:
1. You receive an external call that is transferred from the Automated Attendant
or from Custom Call Routing (CCR).
2. Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging announces the caller’s name to you. If the
caller chooses not to record their name, the voice prompt says, “Unknown
caller.”
3. You can answer the call or let the caller leave a message in your Enterprise
Edge Voice Messaging mailbox:
• press ANS or ⁄ to answer the call
• press QUIT or • to transfer the call to your Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging
mailbox. (The caller is informed that you are not available).
If Call Screening is enabled, Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging asks the caller to
record their name after the tone. (If the caller presses • when they are asked to
record their name, the call goes back to the Automated Attendant.) The caller hears
a hold tone while they wait. If you do not answer, the caller is informed that you are
not available, and the call transfers to your mailbox.
Since some callers do not like to record their name and wait for service, use this
feature with discretion.

A Group List is a collection of mailbox owners. When you send a message to a
Group List, each mailbox owner in the Group List receives the same message. If
you are a member of the group you are addressing, you do not receive a copy of the
message.
If you need a Group List, ask your System Administrator to create a Group List for
you. Include the following information for the System Administrator:
•
•
•
the mailbox owners’ names
a list of the mailbox numbers

Transferring calls to an Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging mailbox
Any time a caller wants to leave a message in a mailbox, you can easily transfer
their call from your Enterprise Edge telephone to any mailbox initialized with
Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging.
Transferring calls to an Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging mailbox has the
following advantages:
•
If you transfer a call to a mailbox instead of another telephone, the call does not
come back to you. If you transfer a call to another telephone and the call is not
answered, the call comes back to you.
•
The call is immediately transferred to the mailbox (which saves time).
ƒ·°fl is not available on the Enterprise Edge Companion Wireless
telephone.

Outbound Transfer
You can set up Outbound Transfer to transfer a caller who reaches your mailbox to
a number that you assign. A caller can use Outbound Transfer from any touch tone
telephone, and you can direct your Outbound Transfer calls to any telephone.
You can personally inform callers of this feature, or you can inform callers of this
feature in your personal greeting. If you choose to inform callers of this feature in
your mailbox greeting, you must tell them to press ‡ to transfer. For example:
“Hi. This is Brenda Whately. I’m away from the office today. Please leave me a
message after the tone and I will return your call as soon as possible. If you need
to reach me before tomorrow, press ‡ and you will be transferred to my cellular
phone. Thanks.”
Note: The restrictions that apply to your telephone line also apply to Outbound
Transfer numbers. For example, if you cannot dial long distance phone
numbers from your telephone, you cannot have a long distance Outbound
Transfer destination.
If your mailbox is restricted to extension destinations for Outbound
Transfer, see your System Administrator.
For Outbound Transfer to function properly, you must have a greeting recorded.
When you set up Outbound Transfer, you can add special characters to the
refer to the following tables and examples.
Adding special characters to the destination number
Follow the voice prompts or press ADD to add special characters to a destination
phone number (or a destination pager number if you are setting up a destination
pager number in Off-premise Message Notification.) The destination phone or
pager number cannot be longer than 30 characters.
Note: If you are adding special characters, do not press the dialpad buttons

Optimizing Outbound Transfer
When Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging transfers a call to an external telephone
number using Outbound Transfer, two lines are used. An incoming line connects a
caller to a mailbox and an outgoing line transfers a caller to an Outbound Transfer
telephone number. Both lines remain in use while the caller connects to the
Outbound Transfer telephone number.
To optimize the use of Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging lines, the Outbound
Transfer call to an external telephone number can transfer to the incoming line to
make the outgoing call. This type of transfer is called a Link transfer.
Note: A Link transfer can be performed only if the Enterprise Edge Voice
Messaging line is equipped with Link transfer capability. If Link transfer is
programmed for an Outbound Transfer and your Enterprise Edge Voice
Messaging lines do not support this feature, the caller is disconnected. Ask
your System Administrator before programming a Link transfer.
To perform a Link transfer with Outbound Transfer you must add a £ before the
Outbound Transfer telephone number. For example, the telephone number looks
like:
£fififi⁄¤‹›
where:
£ instructs Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging to use the incoming line to perform
the transfer
fi⁄¤‹› is the telephone number dialed
Programming an Outbound Transfer telephone number when Enterprise Edge
Voice Messaging is behind PBX or Centrex+
When Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging is installed behind a PBX or Centrex+ and
you want to access an outside line and recognize dial tone, enter:
·£›¤fififi⁄¤‹›
where:
· accesses an outside line
£ specifies the next digits are special characters
› recognizes dial tone
¤ specifies that the next digits are the numbers to be dialed
fififi⁄¤‹› is the phone number dialed

Introduction
This chapter describes how to set up and change Off-premise Message Notification
and includes the following topics:

About Off-premise Message Notification
You can program Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging to call you and let you know
there is a message for you at a phone number, an extension, or a pager. The Off-
premise Message Notification feature is enabled by your System Administrator.
If you program Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging to call you at a telephone, you are
prompted to enter your password before you can listen to your messages.
You can receive notification of a message at a maximum of five different
destination numbers assigned by you. When the number of retry attempts is reached
for each assigned destination number, the next number in the series is called. For
example, Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging can contact your car phone number
first to let you know you have a message. If there is no answer, the call rings at your
home number. If there is still no answer, the call rings at your pager number and so
on. The number of retry attempts is assigned by your System Administrator.
If the destination type is phone, you must assign start and stop times. The start and
stop times apply to all five notification numbers.
Off-premise Message Notification begins when the start time is reached. Set the
start time for the time you are at the destination phone number, so you are there to
receive your calls.

Introduction
ƒ·°· lets you record an active telephone call and put the resulting
message in your mailbox. Before you activate the Call Record feature, ask the
parties on the call for permission to record the call.
The maximum length of the Call Record message is determined by the Class of
Service setting for your incoming message length. If the mailbox message length is
surpassed, the voice prompt “Recording stopped. The recording limit has been
reached” plays and the recording ends. After Call Record stops, you can re-activate
ƒ·°· to start another record call session. The call is recorded in two
separate messages if this occurs. Ask your System Administrator for the message
length that is assigned to your mailbox.
Note: Call Record is not enabled by default. The System Administrator must
enable this feature by assigning you a Class of Service that supports Call
Record. In some areas Call Record is not available as it contravenes local
laws. Ask your System Administrator about the availability of Call Record
in your area.
Using Call Record
After a call is recorded, Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging puts the recorded call, as
a message, in the mailbox associated with the extension that activates the Call
Record feature. The Call Record message can be forward to other mailboxes. For
more information on forwarding messages, refer to Forwarding a copy of a message
To record a call:
1. While on an active call, press ƒ·°·.
Other parties on the call can hear hold tones while the
system conferences in Enterprise Edge Voice
Messaging.
Before the call begins recording, the prompt “This call
is being recorded” plays to all the parties on the call
and then a recording tone plays.
2. Press QUIT to stop the call recording. The Call Record
message is left in your mailbox.

Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging Tips
12
Introduction
This chapter contains some easy to follow guidelines to optimize using Enterprise
Edge Voice Messaging.
Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging Tips
To take advantage of Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging and its many features:
Listen to your messages frequently. Answer your messages promptly to
encourage callers to use Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging and reassure them that
it is as reliable as speaking with you personally.
You do not have to be at your desk to play your messages. When you are away from
your desk, you can play your messages from any touch tone phone.
Clean up your mailbox. There is limited storage in your mailbox and within
Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging. Do not save messages unless you need to listen
to them again. When you are finished with a message, erase the message to free
storage space for yourself and other mailbox owners.
Keep a record of your password in a secure place. Treat your Enterprise Edge
Voice Messaging password as a secret code. Write down your password and keep
it in a safe place. Do not keep your password near your telephone. If you let
someone else have temporary access to your mailbox, change your password
afterwards. If you forget your password, the System Administrator can reset it to the
default password 0000. You can then enter a new password.
When sending messages, make them brief and to the point. More than 75% of
the time spent on a normal business telephone call consists of making small talk,
pleasantries and other socializing. Sending a message rather than making a call can
save you time. Try to avoid sounding hurried or rude while restricting your
messages to the essentials.
Change your Primary greeting frequently. It is a good idea to change your
Primary greeting on a regular basis. Change your greeting to indicate that you listen
to your messages and maintain your mailbox on a regular basis. Change your
Primary greeting to provide a personal touch that frequent callers appreciate.
Make your Alternate greeting specific. Choosing an Alternate greeting usually
means you are away from the office. If you are out of the office, indicate in your
Alternate greeting when you expect to return. If you check your mailbox even
though you are out of the office, make that clear. If callers can reach you at another
phone number, ensure that your message includes the phone number and the time
period of the temporary arrangement. If you are going to be out of the office,
remember to forward your telephone to Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging.
P0911621 Issue 02
Enterprise Edge 2.0 Voice Messaging Reference Guide
8 2 Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging Tips
Extended Absence Greeting. Begin this greeting by announcing your vacation or
travel plans. This gets the attention of the caller. For example, “Vacation alert! Hi,
this is Marshall. I will be on vacation starting on the 5th, and I will be returning to
work on the 12th. If you care to do so, please leave a message and I will return your
call when I return from vacation. For immediate assistance, please press zero.”
Record your greetings and messages clearly. For a better quality recording, speak
directly into the handset. Do not use the Handsfree feature. Remember to speak
clearly in a pleasant voice at a pace that is easy to understand. Do not speak too
softly or loudly or make the greeting or message too lengthy. After you record a
greeting or message play it back. Make sure that your greeting or message sounds
the way you want it to before you accept it.
Do not forget to use the Copy and Reply features. You can use Enterprise Edge
Voice Messaging to send copies of messages to other mailboxes and reply to
messages with a message of your own. When you send copies of messages to other
people, ensure that your introduction explains why you are forwarding a copy of the
message. Is the copy for information only? Is the message meant for the person to
whom you are forwarding it? Who is responsible for the action on the message?
Use Group Lists for multiple copies of messages. If you find that you regularly
send the same message to several different people, ask the System Administrator to
create a Group List for you. With a Group List, you can send the same message to
all the mailboxes in the Group List.
Encourage Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging use. Old habits are sometimes hard
to break, and some people have difficulty accepting or trying new technologies. Use
your Personal mailbox and other Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging features, and
encourage your co-workers and frequent callers to use them too.
Report problems promptly. If you encounter problems using Enterprise Edge
Voice Messaging, report the trouble to the System Administrator as soon as
possible.

Troubleshooting
13
Introduction
This chapter describes some problems that can occur when you use Enterprise Edge
Voice Messaging. This chapter includes a list of typical problems and what to do if
they occur.
The problems you encounter while using Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging are
usually operating problems. Sometimes a difficulty occurs that indicates a system
problem with the Enterprise Edge server. If events occur that are not covered in this
chapter, report them to your System Administrator immediately.
The Automated Attendant transfers some callers to the General Delivery Mailbox.
Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging requires a tone signal and a minimum voice
level. If a response is not received, the caller is automatically transferred by the
Automated Attendant to the Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging operator. If the
operator is not available, the call transfers to the General Delivery mailbox.
Possibly the extension called does not have a mailbox assigned to it. Ask your
System Administrator to verify that the mailbox is assigned to the extension
Feature 981 produces a LOG prompt on my Enterprise Edge display.
The Log: prompt can be caused by:
•
•
Possibly the extension you are using does not have an operating mailbox. If the
extension does not have a mailbox, Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging requests
both a mailbox number and a password.
A Guest mailbox that normally does not have an assigned extension. Ask your
System Administrator to verify that your extension is properly assigned to your
mailbox.
My telephone cannot be forwarded to Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging.
If you attempt to forward your extension to Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging and
the display shows Not in service you can be forwarding to the wrong extension
number. Use Feature 985 to verify you are calling the correct Enterprise Edge Voice
Messaging extension number.
My mailbox is not accepting messages.
A mailbox accepts messages only after the mailbox is initialized. A mailbox cannot
receive messages until it is initialized by the mailbox owner. Initialize your
mailbox. Refer to the Enterprise Edge 2.0 Voice Messaging Quick Reference Guide
or to Chapter 3 of this guide.
P0911621 Issue 02
Enterprise Edge 2.0 Voice Messaging Reference Guide
8 4 Troubleshooting
My name is not played in the Company Directory.
Check to ensure that your mailbox is initialized. If it is not initialized, your name is
not played in the Company Directory and your mailbox cannot receive any
messages. If you have recorded your Company Directory name, ask your System
Administrator to ensure that the Company Directory Override is set to YES.
I have forgotten my mailbox password.
A forgotten password cannot be recovered. Your old password must be reset to the
default password of four zeros (0000). After the System Administrator has reset
your password, you must open your mailbox and change the default password.
I attempt to access my mailbox and I hear the recording: “This mailbox has been locked to
prevent unauthorized access. Please contact your administrator for assistance.”
Your mailbox is assigned a maximum number of incorrect password attempts.
Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging records the number of incorrect attempts from
the last time your mailbox was successfully accessed. After the number is passed
you are “locked-out”. Your mailbox cannot be opened again until the System
Administrator resets the password.
Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging Timeout
The Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging Timeout feature allows five seconds for you
to choose an option. If Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging does not detect a
selection, the Automated Attendant replays the option list. If an option is still not
selected, Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging ends the session.
Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging has minimum voice level detection. If Enterprise
Edge Voice Messaging does not detect an audio signal, it requests the caller to
speak louder and provides the option to re-record. If no voice level is detected after
the prompt, Enterprise Edge Voice Messaging ends the session.
Messages are cut off
If people need to leave long messages in your mailbox (up to 10 minutes), you can
ask the System Administrator to give you more message recording storage space.
I attempt to listen to my messages and I hear the recording: “Your mailbox is full. You must
erase some messages before you can listen to new messages.”
Your mailbox is equipped with the Never Full Mailbox feature, which lets a caller
leave a message in your mailbox, even if the mailbox is “full”. The message is
stored, but cannot be accessed until you delete at least one saved message. If you
find that you need more message time in your mailbox, ask your System
Administrator to give you more storage space.
Wrong prompt language
If the wrong language appears on the display of your Enterprise Edge telephone, ask
the System Administrator to change this.

Administrator to check whether you are allowed to have Off-premise Message
Notification. Ensure that the destination phone number and time parameters are
correct.
