Picking Up a Redirected Call on Your Phone
Your system administrator might enable Call PickUp for your phone if you share call-handling
responsibilities with co-workers. Call PickUp allows you to answer a call that is ringing on a
co-worker’s phone by redirecting the call to your phone. You can use Call PickUp features to handle
calls for co-workers who are in your call pickup group (PickUp), who are in another pickup group
(GPickUp), or who are in a group associated with your group (OPickUp).
Tips
When you press PickUp and GPickUp, you connect to the call that has been ringing for the longest
time.
With OPickUp, your system administrator can associate multiple call pickup groups with your
group and assign a priority to the groups. When you press OPickUp, you connect to the ringing
call in the pickup group with the highest priority.
