I have a VDN that is not routing to the correct mailbox. I have in the vdn set to as following on the bottom. The mailbox is ext.344. When I call the mailbox or the 564 vdn it rings into the tech mailbox. But when I test it on a vector it goes to customer service mailbox insteda of the tech mailbox. The customer service is VDN 567 directing it to mailbox 466. Vector 1 is voicmail , Vector 2 is Customer service and Vector 3 is tech support. On my test vector all I have is the basics to go to VDN 564 but somehow it keeps defaulting and goes to the customer service voicemail instead of going to the tech mailbox. I called it directly to ext 344 and the voicemail works fine. Any idea why this is such a mind boggling for me. I have been working on this problem for 5 weeks and cant figure out why. :(

Do not route the call to the VDN, but use the Messaging command
The line would look like:
03 messaging skill xx for extension xxxx

where xx is the skill number of your Audix, and xxxx is the number of the Audix account
This issue comes from the fact that the Audix system needs to know where the call belongs to and which box to put it in..
Also Audix seems not to be handling a VDN as a regular extension number, and requires a extension number.

I have an Octel Voice Messaging so I do not have the messaging option. Only If I had an Audix VM then I will be able to do what you are saying.
 
Your calls go to the original agent then cover to the voicemail? Try setting the "allow VDN Override" to y and see if that helps. I seem to remeber when going through vectors this makes a difference.
Hope this helps Hope this helps

No it didn't work. I don't know why and where it is defaulting to the customer service voicemail rather than the tech even though everything is pointing to the tech mailbox.
 
You will need to setup a dummy station which covers to vmail but carries the identifier of the mailbox you want. For instance, to send callers to mailbox 564, route the callers to number 555 with coverage Y using 564 in the name field for Octel to trigger off of. -CL
 
You can also do a "list trace station xxx" with xxx being the extension of a desk phone you are using to test the vector routing. Just enter that command, go to the phone and call the extension (internally) that you are testing. This will show all of the steps the call takes through the vector and will maybe give you some pointers as to where it is going wrong. Hope this helps

I have a dummy mailbox which has coverage to voicemail right now and carries the identifier for that mailbox.

I dont have the trace option.I am still using R4 only hopefully soon to be updated to R10 but then again who knows when. Any other way I can somehow track to why it is not going to the the correct mailbox. I have everything set up correctly as far as I know but still wont go to the correct mailbox. hhmmmm
 
Instead of having the dummy box cover to vmail, make it cover to your phone and check your display. See if something else like the vector or vdn names are being passed. -CL
 
No matter what I try changing vdn adding a new vdn and new mailbox, making coverage path directing it to my extension or anything I do it just keeps directing it to the customer service mailbox. I have tried everything trying to change everything but some what it just keeps defaulting somehow to that mailbox instead of any other mailbox that I try to make it to go to. Trie 3 other mailbox for it to go to but it wont. Any one have any suggestion.
Thanks
 
If you post the contents of all the elements of what you are trying to do, extension, VDN, Vector, Coverage path, and mailbox, we can have a good look. Hope this helps

Ok here is my vectors,VDN, and mailboxes for customer service and tech support as followed. THe first Vector 2 is the first vector that responds when a customer dials the 800 number it goes straight to this vector and they have the option of going to tech support by pressing 2.
Tech support mailbox is ext. 344 using VDN 564
Customer service mailbox is ext. 466 using VDN 567
Vector 1 is set up to que all calls to voicemail.
Hopefully this is enough info for any to look at and see what im trying to get this to do. I am trying to do something that is very very simple but just dont know why it is being such a pain.
