making outbound call through 3CX

[bltsai]

Hi I like to know there is anyway when users outside the office and can call back to the office phone numbers making outbound call (international phone call) through 3CX phone system (not use softephone, using regular cell phones)

Thank you

Hi,

Yes this is possible:

1. Dial into the PBX digital receptionist and dial 999 or trunk forwarded to 999.
2. Key in your personal identification number.
3. Dial 9 for options followed by 3 to get a dial tone to call out.

Thank you mfm,
My system voicemail is 9999 so I think I should dial 9999 not 999.
follow your steps, the last step options followed by 3, I get a messeage call fobiden by administrator,
How to fix it?

Thank you so much

Do the 3CX logs show you where the call attempted to route? Were there outgoing trunks available for the call?

 

[bltsai]

In server activity log, It said active calls counted toward license limit :[423]
Is it the reason?

Thank you

Hig,

This is by default switched off as it is considered a security issue. To enable it simply go to:

3CX Management Console > Settings > General > "Enable Outgoing calls in Voicemail Menu" and tick it on.

Try again now, if your outbound rules are correct it will work.

I suppose you loose this option if you use Exchange 2007 integration for voice mail?

Hi mfm,

First ,really thank you your helping. I think we are getting closer to solve the problem. After options followed by 3, I dial the phone number and it tell me the call transfer fail. Do I need to change anything in outbound rule?

Thank you,

Nothing has been defined in that rule. You need to have some digits in the Calls to Numbers Starting with (Prefix) field, otherwise 3CX has nothing to base the routing on. Do you begin your calls with "9", then you would put in 9 and further down change Strip Digits to "1', that will remove the 9 before sending the digits out to the gateway or VoIP provider. You may want to remove the extension range if you want this rule to be applied to outside users. The range that you put in will limit the rule to only those extensions.

You could create a second rule that limits the outside numbers dialled, i.e., certain long distance numbers, that is not applied to all of the other extensions.

Hi,

For testing purposes and as leeroy said do the following:

Calls to Numbers Starting with (Prefix) : 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0

 

[bltsai]

Hi mfm,

I think it is working now after I change "calls to numbers with a length of" 7-18, because we need to call international.
Am I doing right?

Thank you,

 

[leejor]

Yes, there are various ways to narrow down which numbers this particular rule will apply to, that is one of them.

Hi,

I have followed the steps:

1. Dial into the PBX digital receptionist and dial 999 or trunk forwarded to 999.
2. Key in your personal identification number.
3. Dial 9 for options followed by 3 to get a dial tone to call out.

and they work.

This ist anyway way too complicated for my user.

Is there any way to achieve this:

The user call a DID-Number.
He hears the dial tone
He enters the number and key "#"
call is set up.

This was the was we called with asterisk (PBXes).

It would be good to have the same at 3CX as well.

Thank you.

I.
