Pick up a call to a member of a Group via a Dial Plan entry
A Dial Plan entry similar to this example can be created to
allow Users to pick up the longest waiting call ringing for
a User that is a member of a Group. This will pick up any
internal call, DDI or Department call to a member of the
Group.
The name of the Group is entered in the Translate To
field.
Routing calls via a Department
A Department is used to determine how calls will be presented to a Group. By default, a Department
called Main containing MainGroup as its Distribution Group is created. All incoming calls are routed to
this Department until configured otherwise.
Creating a Department
Once a Group has been created a Department is then created to determine how calls will be presented
to the Group.
