What is a Goto Module?

The Goto Module The Goto Module is a Module that has a Goto as its Terminal Action. You can use the Goto Module to send your callers to another Module.Goto A Goto is an Action that sends callers to another Module. A Goto is a Terminal Action. This means it will be the last Action in an Actions List.Module Modules are the individual elements you use to create your Information System An Information System is a general term used to describe the product you are designing with this software. This could be any type of system in which you can give information to your callers, such as a Virtual Customer Service Center, a Virtual Technical Support Center, or a Virtual Help Desk.. When you create an Information System, you are crafting a conversation between a computer and a live person. Each Module represents a single, distinct portion of that conversation. The different types of Modules are: Start, List, Multilevel, Overview, Yes/No, Goto, Hangup, Transfer, Global, Global Yes/No and Goto Project Each Project you create represents a single Speech Driven Information System. So, if you want to create three separate Information Systems, you will need to create three different Projects.. Each Module has its own unique function and symbol. is a Module that has a Goto as its Terminal Action An Action is a specific command that you can add to an Action List. There are five types of Actions: Vox A Vox is an Action that plays a sound file. You can record a Vox in your own voice directly from the Speech Driven Information System. You can also use the Audio Manager to import recordings or sound effects that you have obtained from other sources., Listen, Goto, Transfer, and Hangup.. You can use the Goto Module to send your callers to another Module. is a Module that has a Goto as its Terminal Action A Terminal Action is an Action that always appears at the end of an Action List. You can only have one Terminal Action in any Action List. There are four types of Terminal Actions: Listen, Goto, Transfer, and Hangup.Listen A Listen tells the program to listen to the caller. It will then try to match what they say to the information you enter in the Grammar The Grammar contains the words and phrases for which the program will listen in a given Module. Concepts, Phrases, Confirmations, Responses, and the Phrase Library are all part of the Grammar List.. A Listen is a Terminal Action. This means it will be the last Action in an Actions List., Goto, Transfer A Transfer is an Action that will hang up on callers. A Transfer is a Terminal Action. This means it will be the last Action in an Actions List., and Hangup A Hangup is an Action that will hang up on callers. A Hangup is a Terminal Action. This means it will be the last Action in an Actions List...  You can use the Goto Module to send your callers to another Module.

You can also use the Goto Module when you are developing your Speech Application if you know you will be adding sections in the future.

Let’s say, for example, that you develop a Speech Application in which every Response A Response gives your customers an answer to their question or directs them to another Module that has the information they need. A Response can contain as many Voxes as you would like AND/OR a Goto OR a Transfer OR a Hangup. ends with a Goto to the Main A list of Actions that determine what will happen once the caller enters a Module. Each Module has its own unique Main. The Main is marked with an orange arrow. Menu.  However, in the future you eventually want to have every Response end with a Goto to a Module you haven’t created yet.

If you already programmed every module to Goto the Main Menu directly when you first developed your system, you would need to go back later and change every single Goto yourself.  This could take a lot of time.

A better solution is to initially set up every Response to end with a Goto to a Goto Module.  Then, once you have created the new Module all you have to do is change the Goto in the Goto Module, and all the Responses will automatically be updated.
