Create a simple menu choice

A menu is a collection of one or more menu entries that process calls based on the keys a caller presses. A menu presents choices to the caller. In Architect, menu choices are nodes that are tied to digits and, optionally, speech recognition, and represent a list of options for the caller.

Example: Create a menu option

Create a menu option for callers to press 2 from any menu to transfer to the Service Department, which has a separate phone number. Include speech recognition settings to help Architect guide the caller to the appropriate department, and allow callers to initiate this transfer action when they use any of the specified speech recognition terms.

2. In the Transfer design area, in the Name field type Transfer to Sales.
3. Click the DTMF button and select 2.
4. In the Speech Recognition field, do the following:
