Requesting Agent Help - Inter-Tel 8600 User Manual

EQUESTING
NOTE:
This feature is not supported on peer-to-peer (P2P) calls. Ask your system
administrator if your endpoint is configured to use P2P audio.
Your telephone system may be programmed to support the Agent Help feature, which
allows you to request help from a designated "Agent Help Extension" (usually your
supervisor) during a call. When your request call rings at the Agent Help Extension,
the supervisor can choose to join the call or reject the request.
If the Agent Help Extension is a digital endpoint, the endpoint's microphone is auto-
matically muted so that the supervisor cannot be heard unless he or she presses
. If the Agent Help Extension is a single-line endpoint, however, the supervi-
MUTE
sor can be heard as soon as the conference is established. In either case, the supervi-
sor can hear all other parties on the call.
To use the Agent Help feature while on a call:
Press
1.
ture is not available at your endpoint, you already have four parties in your call,
not enough system circuits are currently available, or the Agent Help Extension
is in DND.
2. Dial the Agent Help Extension number, if required. (Your endpoint may be pro-
grammed to automatically dial the number, or you may be required to dial it.)
If the Agent Help Extension accepts the call, you hear the Agent Help tone, if it is
enabled, and the supervisor can monitor or join your call.
If the Agent Help Extension rejects the call, you hear a confirmation tone.
