Advanced Call Handling
Advanced call-handling tasks involve special (non-standard) features that your system administrator
might configure for your phone depending on your call-handling needs and work environment. You
will not have access to these features unless your system administrator enables them for you.
Storing and Retrieving Parked Calls
You can "park" a call when you want to store the call so that you or someone else can retrieve it from
another phone in the Cisco CallManager system (for example, a phone at a co-worker's desk or in a
conference room). Call Park is a feature that your system administrator must enable for you.
If you want to...
Store an active call
using Call Park
Retrieve a parked call
Redirecting a Ringing Call to Your Phone
Call PickUp allows you to redirect a call that is ringing on a co-worker's phone to your own phone so
that you can answer the call. Call PickUp is a special feature that your system administrator might
enable for you, depending on your call-handling needs and work environment. For example, you might
use this feature if you share call-handling responsibilities with co-workers. You can handle calls for
co-workers who are in your "call pickup group," which is defined by your system administrator.
If you want to...
Answer a call that is ringing on
another extension within your group

connect to the call.
You have a limited amount of time to retrieve the parked call before it
reverts to ringing at its original destination. See your system administrator
for this time limit.
