Outgoing Routing Methods: E-mail, Store in Folder, Print, Custom

Parent Previous Next

When sending faxes and audio messages, you can configure Outgoing Routing Methods to route outgoing faxes and audio messages. Depending on the recipient's phone number, type of the call (fax or audio), and the success or failure of sending the fax or audio message, different actions can be applied to outgoing fax or audio message. These actions are defined by the so-called rules. The independent set of rules is used for each method.


The following Outgoing Routing Methods can be configured:


E-mail Delivery Receipts

An e-mail receipt can be sent to one or more e-mail addresses, to confirm whether the fax or audio message has been sent correctly.

Store in a folder

Outgoing faxes and audio messages can be copied to one or more local or network folder.

Print

This method allows to automatically print outgoing faxes.

Custom

This method allows to easy add any routing functionality by using custom application that is started after sending a fax or audio message. The using of this method is not limited by the current licences.



Outgoing Methods page contains the following information:
