[asterisk-users] Call List Campaign to an IVR

[Tech Support]

    I remember doing the testing and two calls going out at the same time don’t actually have to go out at the *exact* same time. The remote end will pick up one of the two calls, but there is no guarantee which one it will be. Also, if you let the first call ring too long, yes, the second call will go to voicemail,  but the first call will start ringing, which is something we wanted to avoid.

Not really, doing the way below you don't even have to worry about it. They both go out at the same instant and as soon as it hits voicemail it disconnects the other leg. 

 

If you wanted you could leave it ringing for twenty minutes and it would still have the same effect. 

Kind regards,





Matt

That's the basics, but you have to nail the timing just right. The timing is
really important to do it the right way.

     We were able to develop a feature to send the call to voicemail

about 90% of the time. That way, an end user could (1) not be bothered by
having to answer the call, (2)



     delete the message without listening to it, or (3) listen to the

message when it was most convenient for them. That way, they were in control
and things were done on



     their terms.

Amazing. Who knew?

So how/why does this work?

I see 2 calls going out to my cell. Does the first 'busy out' my number at
my cell provider so the second goes straight to VM? What part does the
'0111' play?
