All; I have an interesting scenario where I have a small office with maybe half a dozen phones and several incoming lines. The calls are routed based on the DID that people call. What they would like is when a call comes in to a single phone to have all the phones show the CallerID. That way they can decide if they should pick up the call or not using call pickup. I've been looking at products such as the one from Camrivox that interfaces with different CRM packages or Outlook, but I was wondering if a way was available to show the calls on their phones. Thanks in Advance; John V. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I could be way off track but have you looked at ring groups. Have all of the phones ring (maybe a mute or special ring tone, if this is possible) so that everyone on the list of extensions sees the incoming call. If no one picks it up by ring x, have it go to another phone or to voice mail. https://www.freepbx.org/ring-group-and-follow-me-ring-strategies-1-of-2/ might be useful.

Hello; I certainly appreciate your response. In fact, I used that exact solution for three of the incoming lines. I setup ring groups and a silent ringtone for each phone. Unfortunately, the last incoming line is more complicated and uses an IVR with multiple input choices, so the solution is not as clear cut as for the other ones. That's why I was trying to look at other options. Best Regards; John V.
