Detailed Information about Group Functions

Important: Not available for operation on the PBX COMpact 3000 analogue/ISDN/VoIP.

If a group (subgroup) has been configured in the PBX as member of a group (main group) and a subscriber is at the same time member of these two groups, he will only be considered as a member of the main group when a call comes in.

Subgroups (i.e. groups that have been configured as members of other groups) are "permanently logged in as incoming“ and "permanently logged out as outgoing“ in the corresponding main group.

There are three different ways to login:

Only incoming

When logging into a group as "incoming", the subscriber then finds himself in the call distribution of the group in question for internal, exchange line and door calls.

Only outgoing

When logging into a group as "outgoing", the subscriber acquires a number of characteristics/access rights from the group. These replace his own characteristics/access rights as an individual subscriber for outgoing work-related calls. A subscriber can only be logged on in a single group as "outgoing" even if he is a member of more than one group.

Note: If a subscriber logs into different groups as "outgoing" one after the other, he will only remain logged in as "outgoing" in the group that he logged into last.

Incoming and outgoing

When logging into a group as "incoming and outgoing", the subscriber then finds himself in the call distribution of the group in question for internal, exchange line and door calls and also acquires a number of additional characteristics/access rights from the group. These replace his own characteristics/permissions as an individual subscriber for outgoing work-related calls.

Note: If a subscriber logs into more than one group as "incoming and outgoing", he will only remain logged in as "incoming and outgoing" in the group that he logged into last. And in all other groups, he is then only "logged in as incoming".
