Hunt Groups
The Hunt Groups feature allows access to a group of Business Communications Manager
telephones by entering a single extension number. This ensures that calls easily route to the
appropriate group.
Hunt Groups are used in conditions where a group of people performing the same task answer a
number of related telephone queries. Some typical uses of Hunt Groups are:
•
a sales department answering questions on product prices or availability
•
a support department answering questions describing the operation of a product
•
an emergency department answering calls for help
As an example, consider Hunt Groups that route calls to a support service such as a help line for a
software company. Specialists handling Product A can be in one group, and specialists handling
Product B can be in another group. Incoming calls hunt for the next available telephone in the
group. If no telephone is available, the call is placed in a queue or is routed to an overflow
telephone.
You need to start a Unified Manager session to program this feature. For more information about
programming using Unified Manager, see the Business Communications Manager Programming
Operations Guide.

•
members of a group and member position in a group
