  2. 2600HZ STEP GUIDE – CALL FLOW FEATURE CODES Within the Call Flows App, you will find the Feature Code set up. We highly recommend you do not change the default feature codes, but in the event they conflict with your numbering scheme, or at the insistence of the customer, we understand the need can arise. Below is an explanation of how to change them, as well as the explanation of each code. Click into the Advanced Callflows App and select Feature Codes You will see 4 sections: Call Forwarding, Hot-Desking, Miscellaneous, and Parking. All codes are automatically preceded by a “*” since the star is mandatory for a feature code. To disable any feature code from being used, simply uncheck the box to the right of the code. To change the code simply overwrite the existing number and click the Save button at the bottom of the page when finished. Call Forwarding Enable Call Forward – enables calls to be forwarded to another location Disable Call Forward – cancels any forwarding that has been set Toggle Call Forward – allows forwarding to be switched on or off to an extension or number Update Call Forward – updates the number for the forwarding Hot Desking (IDs must be configured in SmartPBX) Enable Hot Desking – allows calls to be brought to a device via the ID Disable Hot Desking – logs the user out of the device Toggle Hot Desking – allows hot desking to be turned on/off at one device Miscellaneous Check Voicemail – provides the option to designate the desired mailbox Check Voicemail (auto login) – if enabled, no password needs to be entered Direct to Voicemail – sends the call directly to the VM box Intercom – allows hands-free two-way communication (must be supported by the device) Privacy – blocks the outbound Caller ID Move Directed Ext Pickup Parking Park and Retrieve – user provides “parking spot” Valet – “parking spot” is automatically assigned/provided Retrieve – pulls parked call to where you are API Reference Docs docs.2600hz.com https://docs.2600hz.com/supported/applications/crossbar/doc/callflows/ View full File
  3. 2600HZ STEP GUIDE – BRANDING Adding a logo and white-labeling your portal is done via the BRANDING application. *Branding is done at the reseller level of your account. General tab Configuration From the General tab, in the Configuration section, enter a Domain name. This should be the string you would like your customers to use to get into their account. For Example: portal.mycompany.com Once you have entered the Domain Name, click Check DNS. A list of suggested sub-domains will be provided along with their purpose, record type and record data that can be used to set up your DNS records. Optionally, you can enter a Provisioner URL. This is what will be displayed at the top of the Provisioner app and can be helpful in a more user-friendly name. NOTES: We we recommend completing this DNS Mapping setup prior to setting up any new accounts. This will ensure all accounts will use the white label path structures. For a detailed user guide showing and explaining this process please review the "Branding: Set up your White Label DNS" document, found under the Branding / User Resources category here. The Realm Suffix is used to generate the account realms for your accounts using your white-labeled interface. This should be a prefix on your domain name, so in the example above, your realm suffix might be, s.voice.mydomain.com. This would also be your “wild card” in your DNS records. The Provisioner URL can be set as well to replace the API URL displayed on the Provisioner App. This can be populated with the suggested sub-domain for Provisioning as shown in the suggested DNS records Once this information has been entered, click Save Changes. Once saved, the Company Info and Brand Customization sections will appear on the General tab, and you will now see the Advanced tab as well. Company Info The Company Info section is where you will enter information and links for your company. Be sure to uncheck the “Powered by 2600Hz” if you do not want this to appear at the bottom of the pages Brand Customization The Brand Customization section is where you will enter your logo and other visual representation of your company Company Logo – *must be no larger than 192 px (w) x 62 px (h) Click Select a file, and choose your logo file to upload Favicon + Page Title – this is what your customers will see on their browser tab Click Select a file and choose the file for the Favicon to be used. Provide a page title. This title will be used in the Page Tab on your browser and can be accessed by Google Analytics. Login Page – this is the page your customers will be brought to upon entering the URL A custom welcome can be typed that will present under your logo. Choose your brand color – this color will occupy the right side of the page, complemented by black on the left Turn on the social media links you’d like to advertise, and post your link in the field Using the settings shown above, your login screen would look something like below: Advanced tab On the Advanced tab, you will dictate the default for porting permissions, as well as the default for your Carrier Options. NOTE: This tab will not display until you've entered a domain name and saved. Number Porting Non-BYOC Resellers (Using 2600Hz Carriers) Your selection under Submitting Port Requests will depend upon whether or not you would like your customers to be able to submit their own port requests. If you do not wish to allow your customers to submit ports, select “I will request ports on behalf of customers”. In the Managing Port Requests section, select “My provider will manage port requests from my account” BYOC Resellers (Bring Your Own Carriers) – you will work directly with your own Carriers. Select “I will request ports on behalf of customers” in the Submitting Port Requests section Select “I will manage port requests from my account” Carrier Options Here you can enable/disable options for carrier use, and set priority for each option. Templates tab On the Templates tab, you will find the email templates that can be sent out automatically on your behalf to your customers or to 2600Hz. Please be sure to review all templates to be sure the correct audience is being targeted. The template must be enabled in order to be used The recipient must be selected – original user, account admins or a specific email address can be selected/noted Emails can be edited and then previewed. Be sure to click Save Changes when finished with the edits. This should be done for each email you wish to use, others should be disabled Frequently Asked Questions I do not see the Advanced Tab on my branding home screen This tab does not display until you've entered your domain name and save. If it still doesn't display, exit the application and relaunch it. How do I create / edit a custom announcement that comes up when I log into an account? This custom dialog box, or account welcome message is managed in the Accounts Manager app. Log into your main account and select the sub account to manage. At the top you will see a "Notes" tab, select that and enter your text in the WYSIWYG field.

  6. 2600HZ USER GUIDE – SMART PBX What is Smart PBX? The SmartPBX App combines the most common PBX functionality with a beautiful user interface. All services are controlled via API’s, allowing you to extend the App functionality as needed. Within the interface, create, manage and remove services for your users. You can quickly create new client accounts and specify what access you want to provide. Features such as individual fax-to-email boxes, call forwarding and hot-desking are easy to understand and implement. SmartPBX Dashboard The SmartPBX dashboard provides a comprehensive overview of your entire product offering. Within this dashboard, review the total users, devices and associated phone types, conference bridges, main numbers and conference numbers. Also view the total amount of spare numbers and assigned numbers. NOTE: For a detailed look into the dashboard, go HERE. Managing Numbers - Purchase, Port and Assign Provide each user with their unique direct-dial phone and extension number. Assign a spare number within the Interface, or buy or port numbers and then assign the number. When a number is ported or purchased, it will populate the Spare Numbers tab. You can also set office hours strategy, office holidays, and select the way callers reach clients. . NOTE: We have also created a video describing managing numbers! You can find it here Numbers in Use This will give you a summary of the current numbers used by your account and who it is assigned to. The icons to the right of each name and number will show what settings have been enabled. You can view and edit these settings by selecting the gear to the far right. Spare Numbers This tab will display any numbers available for you to use that you have already purchased, but not yet assigned. You can assign these numbers when you set up a new user. To Purchase a Phone Number - Optional: If you want to buy a number, you can select the "Buy" icon that is displayed when the Spare Numbers tab is selected. Choose whether your number should be a toll-free or a Local number. Then you will see a dialog like below: Search for an available number by city or area code. You can then decide what and how many numbers to purchase. Add one number or multiple and then click “Buy Numbers.” The number will be added to the “Spare Numbers” tab, which you will need to assign a number to a user. To Port a Phone Number - Optional: You can also choose to Port an existing number you own to your new account. NOTE: This process can take up to two weeks, so make sure to give yourself time. The link will forward you to our Porting manager app. This steps you though every detail and provides a tracking system to monitor the port process. We strongly recommend you refer to our Porting Manager App documentation for this. The steps below are only a quick overview of the process. Adding Users Once you have your list of numbers you can add users and assign both numbers and devices. Select the "Add User" button at the top, to get started. For more details on the settings here, please refer to the companion STEP guide, HERE. NOTE: We have also created a video describing adding users! You can find it here Assign Numbers to a User Already Added If you have added users before you purchased your numbers, you can follow the steps below Within the “Users” tab, search for the user you want to add/update, and click on the “Phone Numbers” button for the specific user. Click on the “Add from Spare Numbers” button. Select what Spare Number you would like assigned to the user. Once you have chosen a spare number click “Add Selected Numbers.” This will link the number with the user in a few seconds. Manage User Features Manage what features your users can access. Turn on/ off and manage Caller ID, Call Forwarding, Hot Desking, Voicemails, Faxbox, Conference Bridge, Find Me, Follow Me, Music-On-Hold and Inbound Call Recording. To Access User Features On the “Users” tab of SmartPBX, just left of the dashboard. Within the “Users” tab, click on the “User Features” button for the specific user. This will show all available User Features, click on a specific feature and enable. Create and Manage User Groups Once you have created your users, you can begin creating user groups. This is extremely useful if you have users that work in the same department, such as a sales or marketing team. Stay organized by creating multiple groups, while simultaneously adding new users. Click on the “User Groups” tab of SmartPBX, just left of the dashboard. Within the “User Groups” dashboard, click on the “Add Group” button. The interface has a handy drag and drop. Drag the available users over to selected users, create a name for your new group, and add a number and if possible an extension. Once you have created a User Group, it will be added to the list on the Groups home page. From here you can manage the group name, members, extensions, phone numbers, and group features by selecting the name at the top of the column. Call Recording This will toggle a call recording option to on. NOTE: This call recording feature has time limits and is subject to privacy issues as the recording is saved to a local drive. It is recommended you instead use the Call Recording app. which when set up correctly, will save files in a secure external server, such as Amazon Web Services. Please contact your administrator for more information. Ringback This defines the hold sound when a caller is parked in the ring group. Next Action This allows you to set an alternate route for the caller if no-one picks up in the ring group. Allow Call-Forward When enabled this will allow the group's users to press their device "Forward" button to forward a call from this ring group. If this is disabled, the command will be ignored. Caller ID Prepend This feature enables custom "prepending" Caller ID notices for incoming calls. An example could be if a caller was from a foreign-speaking country, that country code could be set (all +34 numbers could be tagged as ESP for Spain, etc.) Main Number and Office Hours Management Set up your own office Main Number within SmartPBX. Once you've added a number, set up an office hours strategy, set office holidays, manage incoming call handling, and even set a Main Conference Number. Create a Main Number Go to the dashboard in SmartPBX and click "Main Number." Click "Main Company Numbers" and add a spare number or buy numbers. Create Office Hours Strategy You have the option to set a 24 hours Open Office or Custom Office Hours. If you want to customize, set the times during the week that your office will be open. Save changes. If you select Custom Hours, you will see the screen below. You have four options for inputting your hours: Add Hours Manually Select a Template Import a .csv file NOTE: Please click HERE for a detailed overview of this process. Set Office Holidays The office holidays section allows you to enter your company holiday schedule. If you have holidays entered, you will be able to assign specific Incoming Call Handling paths that are specific for holidays. Click if you are closed on holidays and click the button "Add Holiday." Add a specific holiday date, select a date range or select an advanced function. Add dates and save changes. Incoming Call Handling This is where. you will set where incoming calls will be directed, and apply customized greetings to different extensions. NOTE: We have also created a video describing the steps below for helping you with these settings. You can find it. HERE Click "Incoming Call Handling" and select how you would like to be reached during "Open Hours" and "After Hours." NOTE: Below is an overview of a simple call handling setup. If you want to include additional conditions and routing options, such as added extensions and conditions for different languages or using different answering services based on incoming country codes, refer to our more advanced call handling document, "How to set up a Virtual Receptionist", here. Select whether you would like incoming calls to go straight to a Virtual Receptionist, a User and then a Virtual Receptionist, or a User and then a Voicemail Box. If using a Virtual Receptionist, add call routes to contact the appropriate department or person. If using a Voicemail, select what voicemail you would like to use. Note that extension 0 is automatically assigned to the main number voicemail. Step through these settings for each of the office hours windows if you want a different call pattern for each. Select Main Conference Number. This must be assigned to use any of the conference features. Assign a dedicated number from your Spare numbers or purchase a new number. Set a custom greeting. If you want a custom greeting as a welcome to your conferences, add it here. -- Enable the greeting -- Type in a greeting and Text To Speech will convert it. Set your main Faxbox number This should be dedicated number for your Office's Main Fax. NOTE: If you select the Edit Faxbox setting, you can enter an email address for sending a notification when the main faxbox receives incoming documents. This is different than a "personal faxbox" which is defined and directed under each user feature. Provision Devices With provisioning in SmartPBX, you can handle many devices from multiple manufactures. The UI comes pre-populated with supported manufacturers and devices. If you had purchased a device through a certified manufacturer, you can provision a supported device by entering the Mac address and creating a name. If you did not, you will have to perform a few additional steps. If you do not have a supported device, you will have to manually provision your device. To Autoprovision a device: Click on the “Add Device” button within the “Devices” section of SmartPBX Select what type of device you would like to add. In this example, we will add a SIP phone. Select the logo of the manufacturer for the device (you may need to scroll or search to find yours) Select the model, which will be displayed along with a picture for easy identification. If you do not see your manufacturer or model, you will need to manually provision your device. At the bottom of the device model selection window, enter a device name and the MAC address. The MAC address is typically found on the back of your SIP device. Auto-Provision Devices varies among manufacturers, so you need to go into the manufacturer's website to auto-provision each device. To do this, turn on your SIP device and enter the IP Address into your web browser. Voicemail Boxes Voicemail Boxes can be created and managed within the SmartPBX UI. Voicemail Boxes will be populated in the "Voicemail Boxes" tab once a new user is created. From there you have advanced options such as providing pins, greetings, and adding recipients. NOTE: We have also created a video describing how to access your voicemail box. You can find it here To access Voicemail Boxes Click on the “Voicemail Boxes” tab of SmartPBX, just left of the dashboard. Within the “Voicemail Boxes” dashboard, click on the “Add Voicemail Box” button. Fill out all the pertinent information in Basic Settings. Manage PIN, Auto-Login, Greetings, Instructions, Delete after Notification, Configurable via Menu via Advanced Settings and Add Recipients. Announce-only Voicemail Box Perfect for closures and other informational messages, announce-only voicemail box enables a voicemail box to play a recorded message without allowing callers to leave a voicemail. This feature can be enabled and messages can be easily changed at any time from the Voicemail Box menu option. Select Voicemail Boxes. Find your name and number. Select the settings icon to the right. Select the Advanced Tab Select Announce-only mode SAVE !!! Enabling Voicemail transcription NEW! We have added a "Transcribe Voicemail" option. The transcriptions will be sent to the email associated with your user name. There are two ways to update this setting and turn it on (note there is an added charge of $0.05/minute for this feature as it requires significant storage and a transcription service) . NOTE: We have also created a video describing the steps below! Find it HERE. Option 1 From your user settings, under User / User Features / Voicemail box / Transcribe Option 2 From your voicemail boxes menu, select Advanced and check "Transcribe Messages". Feature Codes Feature Codes allows you to map common system-wide features to use keys you're already familiar with. Feature codes include call parking, intercom, voicemail and more. These feature codes can be utilized by your device. NOTE: In some cases, depending on your devices these feature codes may accept edits. This can be accessed by an administrator using the Callflows app. Easy Call Logs Diagnose call delivery problems with ease. Every call is tracked and every device that rings or that is attempted is shown. Call problems can also be reported with a single click. If you need help understanding an issue with a call, you can select the icon under the Actions column. A log will be inserted into a text editor for you to add any details of the call you think is relevant (e.g. bad static, unexpected hang up, no audio, etc.) This will give you data about the call you can send to our support team to help diagnose it. The call log might. look like this: We recommend you save your edits, and then email that file to your support team.

These types of rejections require our carrier to make manual changes to the order on their end. 2600Hz will contact the carrier asking them to make the changes. NOTE: If the information you are providing to the fields does not EXACTLY match the bill, this can cause a rejection. Some carriers will reject for missing or added punctuation or even a space! Some carriers also use an Account Number or PIN which should be typed into the appropriate field – if none are provided, leave these blank. You will also need to populate the BTN, or BillingTelephone Number, in the last field. 7. Select Numbers to Port Next, you will be asked to list the numbers you wish to port, and then click Add Numbers to “add” them to the port. You can port a maximum of 100 numbers in one request. NOTE: Make sure to double and triple-check the numbers you enter! Solving fat finger mistakes on the numbers is close to impossible. If you are trying to port the BTN (Billing TelephoneNumber), the system will immediately recognize it and flag as shown here: IS THIS A FULL PORT OR A PARTIAL PORT? If you are porting all numbers from the account, click Full Account Port If you are only doing a partial port (meaning not all of the numbers), select Portion of Numbers. If your partial port includes the BTN from this account, you will need to note a new BTN from the numbers that will remain with the losing carrier. You can save and continue later (you will find this order under “Suspended” when you come back in to complete) or Next – LOA Form to add the Letter of Authorization to the request. 8. Review your List of Numbers! NOTE: Be sure to double check that all of the information in the document matches what is on the bill, and to double check the phone numbers to be sure they are correct. An incorrect number, or typo, can cause the entire port to be rejected! 9. Submit your Letter of Authorization Next, you’ll need to provide an LOA (Letter of Authorization). This confirms you are both eligible to authorize the cancelation of your old account and the start of your new account with 2600hz. To do this, follow the steps from this dialog box. It includes downloading our form, filling it out, signing the form and uploading it back to this application. NOTE: Your LOA MUST be uploaded in PDF format. 10. Enter preferred porting date and contact information The last piece before the review is to let the carriers know who to notify of the changes and to request a porting date. NOTE: Your requested date is not guaranteed – the porting date is not confirmed until you received your FOC date, or Final Order Confirmation date. 11. Save or Suspend your request if you're not ready NOTE: You can choose to “save” or “suspend” your application if you want a second pair of eyes to review this. Look for a button like this, available on most screens. Once saved, the request will display on your Porting home screen and provide the option to Resume. It will then restore the data you entered. 12. REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW The final step is the review. Be sure to double check the information provided, and you must check the boxes on the right, stating your agreement, before being able to submit the port. Once the boxes are checked, you can submit your port. You will see this confirmation and agreement. You will need to check all boxes. 13. What to expect next Once submitted, you should see a screen like the one below. Please submit any questions in the Message block as shown. This is the channel for support for this process. You will be notified by email: A confirmation of the date you have requested, or alternate date proposed When the porting process is complete. You can also track the progress by clicking on the Progress tab in our application.
