To Edit the Dial Pad Menu Options

Click on that number key and a section of New Applications will reveal below. The New Application options are:
Icon
Action
Description
User
Forward the call to an extension of another user. It will also give you the option to add a prefix to the call ID so the user that call is being forwarded to knows the call is being routed from an auto attendant.
Conference
Forward the call to the conference bridge you enter.
Call Queue
Forward the call to a Call Queue with options for the following. It also allows you to have the system announce the number of callers in the queue ahead of the caller or announce the average expected wait time. Add a Caller ID prefix so the agent in the queue knows the call was routed to them from an Auto Attendant.
Directory
Sends the call to the company directory.
Voicemail
Forward a caller to the voicemail extension entered.
Voicemail Management
Allows users on the system to enter their extension number and pin. Then they can check messages and manage their voicemail account.
Note:This is usually programmed as a "secret" menu option and not listed in the audio prompts.
External Number
Forward the call to another telephone number.
Play Message
Play a prerecorded message.
Repeat Prompt
Replay the menu prompt message.
Add Tier
Add another dial pad menu to the auto attendant. Once another tier has been added you will see the same options except for Add Tier. As you cannot add another tier. And the option for the Previous Menu appears so the caller can route back to the original Auto Attendant level. You cannot add a tier to 0 or the star key.
Choose a New Application and follow the prompts to enter the required information accurately.
Once you’re done with editing the Auto-Attendant, click Save to complete.

If no key is pressed – This allows you to select a dial pad menu option, repeat the menu prompt recording, or hang up the call if no digit is pressed when the caller is in the Auto Attendant.
If the unassigned key is pressed – Configure what to do with the call if the caller does not press any digits when in the auto-attendant and what do to if the caller presses a key that is not configured in the Dial Pad
