Multi-Language Menu IVR
A full bilingual IVR where each language gets its own department menu. This is the most complex template — use it when a client needs both language selection and department routing.
When to Use
Use this when a client serves English and Spanish callers and has multiple departments under each language. If they only need one destination per language, use the simpler Simple Bilingual IVR instead.
How It Works
Incoming Call → "Press 1 for English, 2 para español"
├─ Press 1 (English) → "Press 1 for Sales, 2 for Support..."
│ ├─ Press 1 → Connect to English Sales
│ ├─ Press 2 → Connect to English Support
│ └─ ...
├─ Press 2 (Spanish) → "Oprima 1 para ventas, 2 para soporte..."
│ ├─ Press 1 → Connect to Spanish Sales
│ ├─ Press 2 → Connect to Spanish Support
│ └─ ...
└─ No input → Default to English menuFields

Tips
- This template is superadmin only due to its complexity
- If you leave the department menu prompts empty, the app auto-generates TTS from the department names (e.g., “Press 1 for Sales, Press 2 for Support”)
- English and Spanish departments don’t need to match — you can have different numbers or even different department counts per language
