Created page with "Click Here to return to the Sky Central Quick Start: '''Back''' Users who have similar responsibilities or who can be the backup for each other may be grou..."

New page

Click Here to return to the Sky Central Quick Start: '''[[Sky Central|Back]]'''

Users who have similar responsibilities or who can be the backup for each other may be grouped into one extension group. Extension group's phone numbers can be an extension or a Direct Inward Dialing (DID) number. All the DIDs or extensions within the extension group can be notified when a caller calls into this extension group's phone number.

Extension group configuration page can be access by:

1. Login as the company's admin user

2. Click on "Phone System" tab

3. Click on "Extension Groups" link (on the left panel)

To review or update the DIDs or extensions assigned to the extension group, click on the "Numbers" icon under Members on the right side of the page. Note: the purple color digit on the upper right of the "Numbers" icon is the indicator for the number of extensions/DIDs currently assigned to this group.

Tip: To setup the last number in the dial group to route to voicemail you can enter it as follows: <ext>*<company domain> - for example 104*company1.sky-networks.com will route the call to extension 104 at company1.sky-networks.com and if that extension is not actively registered, the call will route to voicemail.

Moving a DID or an extension's position within the group, using the Up and Down arrows, defines the sequence when the DID or the extension will ring next in the queue.

3. Click on "Extension Groups" link (on the left panel)
