Call routing & office hours

Office hours, holidays, ring groups and an auto-attendant.

Your main number

In SmartPBX, open your main number settings to choose what happens to incoming calls. A common setup: an auto-attendant or ring group during office hours, voicemail after hours.

Office hours and holidays

Set your opening hours and holidays, then choose where calls go during office hours, after hours and on holidays.

Ring groups

A ring group rings several people, for example everyone in sales. Add users to the group, then choose where calls go if nobody answers.

Auto-attendant

An auto-attendant greets callers and lets them press a key: “Press 1 for sales, 2 for support.” Record or upload a greeting, then send each key to a user, group or voicemail box.

Advanced Callflows

For routing SmartPBX doesn’t cover, the Advanced Callflows app in the Control panel lets you build custom call flows.

Test every path

After saving, call your main number and try each auto-attendant option. Check after-hours routing too, for example by temporarily changing your hours.
