For example, a car dealership puts all extensions for the sales staff into
Calling Group 1. To let a prospective customer talk to any salesperson, the
receptionist simply transfers the call to the group by dialing [
Transfr ] [ 7 ] [ 1 ].

first salesperson to answer. (Alternatively, the receptionist can page the
group through the speakers of their system phones by pressing [
