Advanced Call Handling
Advanced call-handling tasks involve special (non-standard) features that your system administrator
might configure for your phone depending on your call-handling needs and work environment. You
will not have access to these features unless your system administrator enables them for you.
Storing and Retrieving Parked Calls
You can “park” a call when you want to store the call so that you or someone else can retrieve it from
another phone in the Cisco CallManager system (for example, a phone at a co-worker’s desk or in a
conference room). Call Park is a feature that your system administrator must enable for you.
Picking Up Redirected Calls 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).

You have a limited amount of time to retrieve the parked call before it
reverts to ringing at its original destination. See your system administrator
for this time limit.
