Transfer Return Extension (#306)

Description
By default, transferred calls return to the originating extension if they are not
answered. This System Programming procedure can be used to identify a
different return extension for the extension that transfers a call.
Related Features
You can use Transfer Return Rings (#105) to define the number of times
n
all system extensions should ring with transferred calls before they return
to their transfer return extensions.
The transfer return extension for any extensions associated with auto
n
attendant or voice messaging system hardware should be extension 10 (or
another extension with a person who can assist the caller). AA Extensions
(#607) is used to identify the extensions associated with auto attendant
hardware and Hunt Group Extensions (#505) is used to identify the
extensions associated with voice messaging system hardware.
If an extension has VMS Cover active, unanswered calls to that extension
n
are routed to the voice messaging system rather than to the transfer return
extension.
For transferred calls that are sent to a covering extension with Call
n
Coverage: if the covering extension does not answer within the specified
number of Call Coverage Rings (#116), the call rings the specified
number of Transfer Return Rings (#105) before it transfer returns. If the
covering extension has Do Not Disturb active, the call rings one more time
after the specified number of Call Coverage Rings (#116) before it transfer
returns.
Considerations
An unanswered transferred call returns to the transfer return extension
n
identified for the extension transferring the call, not the extension receiving
the call.
Do not designate an extension associated with auto attendant or voice
n
messaging system hardware as the transfer return extension for any user
extension.
Transfer return calls do not receive call coverage or voice mail coverage.
