PBX Administration (classic)

If you're an admin who signs in at https://my.jive.com/pbx, these steps are for you.

Lines

Below is a list of all the line settings and their descriptions.

General

**Extension**
Setting	Description
Extension Number	A unique three to six-digit number that makes the line dialable.
Name	The name used to identify the line in the admin portal. This does not change the caller ID and can be overridden by the button label.
Shared Line — Optional	Shares a single line with up to eight phones allowing users to mutually manage and monitor incoming calls and calls placed on hold. A shared line is a 2-way line, and not intended to act as a conference line. Note: Supported on Cisco MPP, Polycom, and Yealink only. Note: Not all phones support this feature.
Omit from Directory — Optional	Removes the line from all internal directories.
Omit from Auto Attendant Extension Dialing — Optional	Removes the line from auto attendant extension dialing.
Language	Defines the language for system IVR messages (e.g., voicemail menu prompts) and voicemail transcription.
Region	Matches the ringback to the region and allows a line to call a local number without having to dial the country code.

**Inbound Call Options**
Setting	Description
Intercom Auto Pickup — Optional	Enables the line to receive intercom calls from other lines on the system.
Hold Music	Controls which playlist callers hear while on hold.
Ringback	Controls whether callers hear ringing or hold music while waiting for the line to be answered.

**Outbound Call Options**
Setting	Description
Local Area Code	Allows a line to call a local number without having to dial the area code.
External Caller ID	Controls which caller ID information is used when making outbound calls from this line.

Dial Plan

Incoming calls to the line are routed through the dial plan (Find Me/Follow Me) when the line is directly dialed, a call is transferred to the line, or the line is used in a Line & Voicemail node. However, these settings are overridden on a per-call basis when your line is used in a Simple Dial node or another line’s ring step.

**Dial Plan**
Setting	Description
Ring Step	Defines which extension(s) and number(s) to ring when someone calls the line. You can set up the line to ring more than one phone simultaneously by adding multiple numbers to a ring step or in sequence by creating multiple ring steps. Note: If you have Block Caller ID enabled on the phone number routed to the line, the External Caller ID will continue to be blocked as the call is routed to other ring step destinations.
Confirm Pickup — Optional	Gives the option to dial `1` to accept an incoming call or `2` to send it to the next step in the dial plan. Tip: Confirm pickup is helpful when a ring step includes an external number as it can interrupt your dial plan. For example, when a cell phone is turned off, calls go straight to the cell phone's voicemail box. Without confirm pickup, the voicemail would answer the call and prematurely end the ring step. Enabling confirm pickup allows the call to re-route back to the next ring step.
Pass Through Caller ID — Optional	Controls which caller ID is displayed for ring steps that include external numbers. When enabled, the caller ID of the original caller is displayed. When disabled, the line's External Caller ID is displayed.
Ring Time	Defines the number of seconds the call rings before going to the next ring step. This is overridden by any Simple Dial nodes that reference the line in a dial plan.
If no answer, send to	Defines what happens if the call is never answered. Voicemail: Sends the caller to the line's voicemail. Internal: Sends the caller to a specified internal extension. External: Sends the caller to a specified external number. Transferer: If the call was transferred to the line, returns the call to the party that initiated the transfer. If the call was not transferred to the line, it hangs up on the caller. Hang up: Hangs up on the caller. Unspecified: Follows the No answer, send to ring step.
If call fails, send to	Defines what happens if the call fails, like in the case of an internet or power outage. Unspecified: Follows the No answer, send to ring step. Internal: Sends the caller to a specified internal extension. Note: To avoid routing calls to another device that is also affected by the same outage, we recommend using failover to an internal extension only if you have multiple locations on the same system (e.g., an office in Chicago and Dallas). External Number: Sends the caller to a specified external number.

Voicemail

**General Options**
Setting	Description
Time Zone	Sets the time zone for the line.

**Using an Analog Telephone Adapter**
Setting	Description
Store faxes to increase transmission success rate — Optional	Increases the delivery success rates of faxes you send and receive using a physical fax machine with an ATA.
