4In the Group Name field, enter an alpha-numeric identifier for the new
group.
5In the Group Address field, enter a phone extension.
When a group member hears another group member’s phone ring, the
member dials the Group Address extension to answer the call. The value
must be unique; duplicate Group Address values are not allowed.
Note that you or the user can map a telephone button to the Call feature
and specify the extension as the number to call. When a group member
hears another group member’s phone ring, the member can press the
button mapped to the Group Address instead of dialing the extension.
6The Global Pickup Allowed check box is disabled by default. When a call
rings on a member’s phone, only other phones that are members of the
group can answer the call. If you want to allow phones that are not
members of this Group Call Pickup group to pickup member calls, enable
the check box.
When the Global Pickup Allowed check box is enabled, the Global
Pickup Allowed column on the Call Pickup Groups page displays
Yes.
When the Global Pickup Allowed check box is disabled, the Global
Pickup Allowed column on the Call Pickup Groups page displays
