console is unusually busy. So, the system manager, Kelly Ratliffe, programs Pat's
console to place calls on hold automatically when Pat answers another call. Pat
answers the first incoming call and asks the party to hold. Then she presses the
CALL APPEARANCE
hold.

Handling Multiple-Party Calls
This section covers features associated with connecting 2 to 5 callers on one call.
