Forwarding
Incoming Calls
You can choose when and where to forward unanswered incoming calls.
Unanswered calls that come in directly to your extension go to a call
coverage point. You can set different call coverage points for different
conditions: default, no answer, busy, and all calls.
Unanswered calls that come to your telephone through ACD groups,
hunt groups, and calling groups follow the call coverage path that your
administrator sets up for the group. See
“Automatic Call Distribution
Groups, Hunt Groups, and Calling Groups” in Chapter 6.
When you specify call forwarding, you specify the call coverage point and
the condition under which to forward calls.
