I have a kim assigned to the main ext. The recptionist wants to be able to hit vmt then button on kim to transfer caller to voicemail. I have buttons programmed as autodials. Did I program buttons incorrectly or is this a major oversight by nortel?

I haven't tried that on Nortel but in the past on Samsung you could hit the VoicemailTransfer key and HAD to dial digits, not push a dss button.

Pretty stupid, don't know if they changed it or not.

To transfer to Voice Mail, You MUST type in the mailbox number on the keypad after hitting the "Transfer to VM" which is F986. You can use the KIM buttons to tranfer to an Extension (F70=Transfer) But you CANNOT use the Internal Autodial buttons to do a transfer to Voice Mail. If you are on a call and hit F986 then one of the buttons (example: for Bob x235) You actually put the call on hold and and now dialing Bob using the intercom path. It will not go to VM.

Here I thought only Nortel worked that screwy way, good to know other brands do the same!

NEC
DS1000 & 2000 press dss button and than the MW button the call is now in voice mail

IPK. press dss button, message button the call is now in voice mail.

I am sure Nortel and the others will be following to make this more simple for their end users.
