All rights reserved. eReceptionist™is a registered trademark of j2 Global Communications, Inc. 4 Quick Set Up Here are three quick steps for getting started with eReceptionist. Step 1 — Manage Extensions Each eReceptionist account comes with three extensions. The “Admin Extension” is created during account sign-up. For help setting up the other two extensions, refer to Set Up Exten- sions. Each extension must have at least one Call Routing number and an email address for receiving voicemail. Depending upon the size of your company, you may need to purchase additional exten- sions. Refer to the Add Extensions section for details. If you decide you do not want to use extensions, turn off the Auto Attendant. Step 2 — Set Up Call Routing Each extension can forward calls to up to three different numbers before going to voice- mail. This allows the extension user to receive calls anywhere at any time of day. Determine where you would like to forward calls and whether you need to create a sched- ule for the time of day/days of the week. If no Call Routing numbers are added, calls go straight to voicemail. For more information, refer to the steps in the Call Routing section. Step 3 — Create a Welcome Greeting After you have determined the number of extensions you need and configured them for use, you'll need to create a welcome greeting. This greeting is the first thing callers hear when they call your eReceptionist number and will assist them in selecting an extension. To record a new Welcome Greeting over the phone, or to request a professionally-recorded Welcome Greeting, refer to the Admin-Controlled Greetings section. Each account comes with one free professionally-recorded greeting to get you started! Next Steps . . . G Visit Use Your Extension for easy-to-use steps for making and answering calls, speed dialing, blocking calls, checking voicemail, and more (both Admin and users). G Customise your extension using the features and options described in Manage Exten- sions (both Admin and users). G Perform additional account customisations (Admin only). Quick Set Up eReceptionist™User Guide Copyright © 1997-2010 j2 Global Communications, Inc.

Additional tasks may include overriding or deleting your Call Routing schedule or activating user-recorded greetings. Most of these tasks can be performed by both users and the Admin. If the procedures differ by role, then those differences are noted where applicable. Edit Extension Info Extension Info is contact data for a particular extension for all system-related com- munication and extension log in. If you have not yet set up the extension you want to edit, then follow the steps in the Set Up Extensions section. To edit extension info: 1. Log into your account online and go to Manage Extensions. Users skip to Step 5. 2. Admin only: Click the Edit link that corresponds to the extension you wish to edit. 3. Admin only: Change the number assigned to the extension in the Extension # field (on the Info tab). This number can be up to two digits. IMPORTANT! Changing the number assigned to an existing extension deletes ALL voicemail messages stored for that extension (you may also have to change your greetings). 4. Admin only: Change the extension assignee in the Name or Department field. This data populates the Manage Extensions table. 5. Change the password assigned to the extension in the Password field (on the Info tab). It must be 4 to 10 alphanumeric characters. 6. Re-enter the password in the Confirm New Password field. 7. Change the email address associated with the extension in the Email Address field. This becomes the default voicemail forwarding address, unless the Admin or user has already changed the voicemail forwarding address in the VM Options tab. Users skip to Step 9. 8. Admin only: Check the Set this user as administrator checkbox to assign Admin rights to this extension. IMPORTANT! Only one extension can have Admin rights. Each time Admin rights are assigned to an extension, they are removed from the previous Admin's extension. 9. Click Update.

I work Monday through Friday, from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., but since I work from home occasionally, I may not be at my office desk when callers attempt to reach me. I also have a mobile phone that I carry uploads/Management/ ereceptionist-guide.pdf
