Well, they have three folks that work from home. I can set up a speed dial on flex buttons 108, 109, and 110, put their phone numbers in speed dial for those people, assign those buttons to them.

When whomever at the office answers, they can forward with two buttons, trans and that flex button. If the auto attendant gets it, it will transfer by either dial by name or "press 3 for George", or whatever.

I just don't want to create a conflict with this voice mail numbering issue that I still can't get my brain around.

I was going to dig into this later myself but since you are here so to speak could you tell me if I can set up a sequence where the voice mail system will answer with a message like "thanks for calling XYZ, someone will be with you monentarily" then ring are the 8 stations, and then follow the preset forwarding timer back to the auto attendant if they don't answer?
