Call Parking

Call Parking lets you place a call in a virtual “parking bay” so any phone in your system can retrieve it.

Configure Call Parking

1. Log in and select your number in Switchboard.

2. Go to Advanced > Call Parking.

3. Configure these options:

   • Number of parking slots (e.g., 10)
   • Parking time in seconds (e.g., 50)
   • Where to return unanswered calls

4. Click Save to update your settings.

Using Call Parking

• To park a call: Press the Call Park button or transfer to *1701.

• To retrieve a call: Dial *1701 or press the flashing Call Park button.

Setting Up Call Park Buttons

1. Configure line keys as “Call Park” type with value *1701 for bay 1.

2. Add a descriptive label such as “Bay 1” or “Parking 1”.

3. Select the appropriate line (typically Line 1).

Any phone in the same group can retrieve a parked call by dialling *1701 or using a configured Call Park button. When a call is parked, the Call Park button flashes on phones monitoring that bay.

Example: In the image shown, phone extension 61-2-8970-7502 has Call Parking enabled with all extensions monitoring bay *1701. When Emma has configured her phone to monitor bay *1701, her Call Park button labelled “Bay One” flashes when a call is parked. She can retrieve the parked call by pressing this button.
