Privacy Release Groups
Description
You can program extensions into Privacy Release Groups to simplify sharing outside calls. Co-workers in
the same Privacy Release Group can easily join another group member’s outside call just by pressing the
busy line -key. The co-worker immediately joins in unannounced and uninvited. Privacy Release Groups are
a quick alternative to Conference where control over the Conference is not required. In a Customer Service
group, for example, a supervisor could just press a busy line key to monitor any agent’s call.
If desired, an extension user can prevent other members of their Privacy Release Group from interrupting
their active call. This ensures that group members will not interrupt confidential calls.
Any number of extensions can be in the same Privacy Release Group. However, an extension can only be in
a single group. Members of the Group must have line keys and access to the lines they want to share.
Privacy Release Groups utilizes a Conference circuit. The following table shows the Conference capacities:
The system’s 32 Conference circuits are dynamically allocated as users request them.
