Polycom Transfer to Voicemail

With our old phone carrier (ENA), the secretaries in our school buildings could transfer a call directly to a teacher's voicemail. That option no longer appears for them with Zoom. Is there something on our end we need to do in order for that to work?

They do this when a teacher is actively teaching a class and they don't want to disturb them. We know there is a DND button on the phones, but the teachers have a habit of not turning that back off.

Thanks in advance!

hi brandonlaville,

If you have Zoom Phone activated on your account, you can transfer an ongoing phone call. There are three call transfer methods: warm transfer, blind transfer, and transfer to voicemail.

Transferring calls – Zoom Support

Transfer to other extension's voicemail using dtmf

**(extension)

Press the soft key to transfer to voicemail, press **(extension), then press Transfer.

The Zoom desktop client / mobile app, Yealink phones, and Poly phones may have menu options for this, so there may be no need to use the DTMF code.

Is there a way to edit the number of rings from a t2vm transfer? I have a user that wishes to turn them off completely or at least lower the amount of times it rings before it hits the VM - thank you!
