Summary 4
Table 4–10 illustrates the various ways that calls can be covered.
Table 4–10. Features for Covering Calls
Feature Covered by Description Example
Follow
Me Any
individual A person forwards his/her calls,
turning the feature on at the
destination phone. A supervisor is helping
someone at another desk
and remembers that he or
she wants to receive calls
there.
Forward Any
individual A person forwards his or her
calls to an inside extension,
turning the feature on at his or
her own phone. (This feature
can be activated through remote
access as well.)
In Release 4.0 or later systems,
Forward/Follow Me and Remote
Call Forward provide a Delayed
Call Forwarding option that
allows calls to ring at the
forwarding extension. This way
of covering calls need not be
temporary.
A manager is in a meeting
and wants to receive calls in
the meeting room.
In a Release 4.0 or later
system, a manager answers
some calls before they are
forwarded. When the
manager does not answer,
calls ring at his or her
secretary’s extension after a
delay.
