Add/Edit PIN

To manually add an IVR PIN code, click the 'Add PIN' button on top. The following options will be displayed.

PIN: Unique IVR PIN number. This PIN number is provided once requested by IVR. A correctly supplied PIN will make CloudPBX dial the 'Destination' number. (ex. John dials local IVR (1003) and is asked to provide a PIN. He enters PIN (55555) and CloudPBX dials the number provided under the 'Destination' field).

Description: Short description of the IVR PIN. This description is used for describing the Destination number (ex. 'John's cell phone', or '21255510205')

Expiry date: All PIN codes can be valid until a certain date. You are strongly encouraged to set the expiration date by clicking on the 'Calendar' icon, next to the 'Expiry date' field and selecting a desired date. The date can be provided manually in the following form 'dd-mm-yyyy'. Accessing the PIN after the 'Expiry date' will be impossible. (ex. If this field is set to expire on 31-01-2007. All IVR calls made with this PIN by this date will be passed through the Destination number. Calls after the expiration date will not be made).

Destination: Ten digit destination number dialed once the IVR PIN is provided (ex. Provide a 10 digit number here e.g. 1555102057. Once the IVR PIN is provided, a call will be made to it).
