say-as tag for date unneeded in AT&T engine on IVR platf

Post by support »

Unfortunately the say-as types vary based on the TTS engine. In the case of the AT&T engine which you are doing, you are best off not using the <say-as> tag in your IVR application and, instead, specifying dates with standard US date format: MM/DD/YYYY. So your date below would simply be specified as "02/16/2006".
