An ACD group call can be added to a conference. The members receiving the call
can conference with another extension or with another ACD group. Both announced
and unannounced conferences are supported (see
Setting up a Conference Call).
An ACD group call can be put on hold and taken off hold without losing the caller.
If an ACD group member puts a call on hold, that member can receive other calls.
An ACD group caller on hold will hear ACD group Music on Hold.
An ACD group call can be parked and then picked up by any user on the same site.
If the VCX telephone has Hands Free enabled, an incoming call to an ACD group
will not be picked up automatically.
An ACD group member’s personal telephone settings (for example, Call Forward, Call
Coverage point, and Do Not Disturb) are not invoked on ACD Group calls.
An external call to a private user (someone not in the ACD group) can be transferred
to an ACD group.
Both attended and unattended call transfers are allowed for calls to an ACD group or
from an ACD group. After reaching an Auto Attendant, a caller can enter an ACD
group extension and be transferred to an ACD Group.
Internal and external callers that are forwarded to voice mailbox can leave a
message and navigate through the voice mailbox options.
If an ACD group call is routed to a voice mailbox or Auto Attendant call coverage
point but the routing fails (for example, because no ports are available), the call is
required for the ACD group.
