VAD capabilities-Route calls based on caller pin entry

[summit3]

Does this system have the ability for callers to call in and enter a pin #. From there they will be randomly selected to hear a message.

Basically the setup is a drug trial program. People are given a telephone number and a pin. They will then call in everyday for 30 days. When they reach the automated attendant they will enter the pin #. The system will then randomly play them a message, either you have been selected or have not been selected for a trial.

I didn't see anything on the website besides the auto dialer IVR set up and wasn't sure if the system had the ability to do this.

Any assistance on this would be greatly appreciated as we are proposing on 8/25, first thing in the morning

Yes, this is something that can be done with the VAD.
Do you need to randomly choose between 2 messages? Or do you have much more messages?
What you need to do is:
1) Define a callflow or project variable, say "RandomNumber".
2) Using an External Code Execution, you can create a javascript function which returns a random number, for example:
function getRandomNumber(maxValue)
{
return Math.floor(Math.random()*maxValue);
}

3) Using a Variable Assignment component, assign the return value to the variable "RandomNumber".
4) Use a Conditional component to choose between different audio files to play, depending on the "RandomNumber" variable.

You should be able to do it following the steps.

Let me know if you need further assistance.
