General Notes about Call Forwarding
While you can forward your existing APU Phone Extension or direct dial number to your new number, your outbound calls will use your new number, not your APU extension to callers.
Inbound calls that are forwarded through your APU extension will show the APU generic number (626-815-6000) rather than the source number of the caller.
Forward No Answer (Voicemail)
- Office Cisco IP phones are automatically programmed to forward to voicemail when there is no answer. If the “no answer forwarding” needs to be changed, please contact the IMT Support Center at support@apu.edu or 626-815-5050 to place a request.
- If you receive a call while on the line, you will hear a call waiting indicator. If you do not answer the second incoming call, the caller will be directed to voicemail.
