Element - Update On Call
Element has an Auto Attendant (x9903: Main Menu - Departments Closed) that is used to ring their 4 departments after hours. Each department has an option off the menu which will ring the on call technician, then the on call manager, and ultimately go to an after hours voicemail.
Instructions To Update/Change
Update Phone Numbers
The following steps will walk you through adding a phone number to a queue. These steps should be repeated for each queue. The "Rollover" queue for each group should include the manager and the technician, while the initial queue for each group should contain only the technician.
Log in to the portal as an Office Manager
Click
Call Queues
at the top and then select the
Edit Agents
Icon to the right of the queue that you want to update (see table below that lists each of the call queues).
Add the new phone number(s)
Click Add Agent
and type the full 10-digit phone number in Agent Phone
Check the box for Request Confirmation
. Failing to check this box will cause calls to end up in the cell phone's voicemail rather than following the call flow properly.

Click the red X
button next to the old phone number(s) to prevent them from receiving calls.
Click
