BLF User (Busy Lamp Field)
This provides a visual indication of the status of other phone extensions, showing whether they are available, in use, or receiving a call. This is achieved by assigning a BLF key on a handset to monitor a specific extension.
The typical light indicators are as follows:
- Green – The extension is available. Pressing the key will initiate a call to that user.
- Red – The extension is currently in use. Pressing the key will result in a busy tone or redirect to the user’s busy destination (e.g. voicemail).
- Flashing – The extension is receiving an incoming call. Pressing the key may intercept the call, depending on system permissions.
Once selected, you can set the Button Actions to a end point e.g. Reception or Julie Smith
Call Distribution Group
A Call Distribution Group (also known as a Ring Group) is a call handling method that routes incoming calls to a predefined group of extensions or users for example, a customer service team.
Once selected, you can set the Button Action to a pre-defined Call Group, you can create a group by clicking Call Groups on the left pane.
Important Note
Call groups can only handle one call at a time. If multiple calls arrive simultaneously, only the first will ring through to the group. Any additional calls will follow the group’s overflow settings (e.g. voicemail or alternative routing).
Call Park Slot
Call Parking allows a user to place an active call on hold in a shared, virtual space known as a call park slot. You can think of this as a virtual "parking lot" for calls, where any authorised extension can retrieve the parked call using a programmed feature key or by dialling a short code.
Once selected, the only option for Button Action is Call Park
Example Scenario:
A call is received by reception. The caller wishes to speak with User A, but User A is currently unavailable. Rather than keeping the caller on hold, the receptionist parks the call in park 3 and notifies User A that a call is waiting for them on park 3. While the call is parked, the caller hears hold music. When User A becomes available, they simply dial the code for park slot 3 to retrieve the call.
CLI Override
Caller Line Identity (CLI) refers to the telephone number displayed to the recipient of a call, identifying the caller. In a business context, this is a mandatory requirement and must be a valid, dialable number that clearly represents the caller.
We have the ability to configure which CLI is presented on outbound calls. This could be the business’s main number, the sales teams number or an individual user’s Direct Dial In (DDI) number, depending on operational needs.
Once selected, you can choose the number from the Button Action dropdown
