Have a customer who wants all calls front ended with Talk path and the zero key to go to a hunt group with several extensions. Did this a couple of years ago, cant find the right place on the talk path. If I hit the 0 key for key action there is no choice to direct it to Hunt Group. Anyone? Thanks. This is on an XTS.

You need to create a mailbox for the Hunt group (mbx 450) and then put that mailbox in you 0 selector code.

Ok, got it. I did this app about 5 times for 1 customer a couple of years ago, could not for life of me remember. Thanks.

If you are speaking of routing from the auto attendant's menu, why not just set the "0" destination (along with timeout and retry, I assume) to the hunt group number?

If you need this group to also be hit when someone reaches a mailbox, you can change this globally in the system settings for the operator destination (instead of the default #6,0, change this to #6,45X). You can also alter this in each mailbox's settings in the upper right-hand corner for their operator destination.

Ed,
Exactly what I am trying to do, set 0 on the menu to the hunt group. The key action drop down does not offer hunt group as an option. Does that mean we insert extension 451 in subscribers and have 0 go to "ext" 451?

That is one way to do it. The Dispatch is pretty simple...it looks for mailboxes, extensions and menus, time controls, so you if you want to go to a hunt group...it has to look like an extension.
