Overview

  • Call group (do not confuse with Call groups (Queues) is ), configured in WMS → Dialplan → Call groups), is a list of group memberships that users belong to for call pickup purposes
  • Pickup group is a list of groups that users are permitted to pick up in

Call and pickup groups are designed to be able to pick up call group calls and prevent from creating a big amount of ACL groups to pickup purposes. Usually members of one department/ team are added to one call group. 

Scenario example:

One or more users have the value "sales" specified in the field "Call groups" in their user preferences in WMS; user 100 has the value "sales" specified in the field "Pickup groups" in his or her user preferences in WMS. By calling 88sales (88 is the Pickup Feature Code), user 100 can pick up a random ringing call in "sales" group.   

The new behavior of picking up Call group calls:

  • User A can pick up any calls belonging to a Call group specified in the user's Pickup groups (and can't pick up other calls) 
  • To pick up calls of the user A, specify the name of a Call group in the user's Call groups 

Example:

User A belongs to "Support" Call group. User B belongs to "Sales" Call group. If User A " is specified in WMS in the preferences of user A, field "Call groups". If user B wants to pick up calls of User BA, it is necessary to add "Sales" to "Pickup groups" of user A in WMS Preferences.

Configuration

To enable the new behavior:  

...

When the new functionality is enabled (means that at least one value is added to "Call groups"/ "Pickup groups" field), BLF "Group pick up" and ACL "Can - Call Pickup - Group" stop working. 

To pick up calls, you can configure BLF "Speed dial" indicating Feature Code "Pickup" 88*group name.
