Chorus group working

Description	Equipment required	Request
Hunt groups are a method of distributing telephone calls from a single phone number to a group of several phone handsets. Phone calls can be distributed to one phone after another (in a list or longest idle) or to all the phones at once. A pickup group differs from a hunt group in that the user has to dial a number or press a button to pick up the call, where as in a hunt group the call will be delivered automatically.	Desk phone or soft phone	This can be done in Phoneman

Description	Equipment required	Request
Pickup groups allow a group of people to pick up any calls for another person in the group from their own phone (3). It differs from a hunt group in that the user has to dial a number or press a button to pick up the call, whereas in a hunt group the call will be delivered automatically. Note: a number can only exist in one** pickup group.	Desk phone	This can be done in Phoneman: Create a pick up group

Calls to the 'manager' can be automatically diverted to a 'assistant', unless the caller is on a whitelist, when the call goes straight through. One 'assistant' can monitor a number of 'managers', make and receive calls on their behalf. See key functions for how to use these features.	Desk phone	This can be done in Phoneman
