Welcome to the Zoom Community, @SGCPLLC.
Just to clarify... you want your phone to ring, and if not answered go straight to voice mail.
Please check the Call Handling -> Business Hours section of your Personal -> Phone menu:
When a call is not answered should be set to Forward to voicemail / videomail.
This assumes that you have assigned a phone number to yourself. If you're trying to do this with the "Company Phone," let me know... this isn't recommended, but if you really only have one phone number and want that to be your personal phone number, I'll try to recall how this is done and let you know:
Personally, I recommend paying the extra $5/month for an additional phone number... and making one number or the other the "company number" and set up an IVR for it. Put THIS number into places where you're not really expecting people to be able to reach you directly, as if you have a front desk person handling your calls. This helps weed out spam calls who go to the auto-attendant first and get lost in the IVR... then only give your phone number to "real people".
Just my opinion!
hi sgcpllc,
Two possible ways to go:
- Have auto receptionist automatically ring your phone.
- Reassign your one number from auto receptionist to your phone.
First approach,
On the Zoom portal,
ADMIN->PHONE SYSTEM MANAGEMENT->AUTO RECEPTIONISTS->Main Auto Receptionist->Profile
Scroll down to Business Hours – Should display 24 Hours a Day, 7 Days a Week. If not use Edit.
Greeting Prompt – Should display Disable. If not use Edit to change to Disable.
Route to – Use Edit to select Route to User
Click in the Search by Name or Ext. box and select yourself as the user to route calls to. Click OK.
If this is not what you want, I will be happy to go over second option.
Thanks, eliot
