MiVoice Office 250/Mitel 5000 / Re: Is there a way to xfer to voicemail
« on: May 07, 2014, 03:13:58 PM »
We run a Mitel 5000 HX v5.1 DB with the Inter-tel digital phones, 8560's and they have the option on the screen for currently ringing calls. We also have building running the IP phones and aslong as it is a 6 line display phone you have the option on calls currently ringing the phone. The 53XX and all the proper 'Mitel' brand phones have a large display from what I see but I have never programmed the buttons so I can't help you setup your current phones but I can confirm it is within the capacity of the 5000 to forward inbound calls to VM. I feel you just need to find the proper program key and how to add it to the large display of the 53XX's during an incoming call.
I just did some tests and essentially, while incoming call is ringing you can dial 'feature key' [looks like infinite symbol'] 311, at that point it asks where to forward the current call, you can press your program key for voicemail, or just dial the system's voicemail extension that users use to check their voicemail, at that point the call will be sent to that endpoints voicemail.
Let me know if any of this is unclear sorry my explanation is a bit haste.
Thank you
