Conference
Consultation
If you want to add the consultation parties to the
conference, use the "Add to conference" option
instead of the "Consultation" option.
If you want to use the
phonebook
or a
call list
for a consultation call, select
Hold
instead of
Consult (and/or Add to conference) in the context
menu or press the
Hold
key and then open the
phonebook or a required call list (
page 156).
Alternatively you can select the phonebook or a
call list without using the
Hold
functions - the
conference call is automatically placed on
Hold
.
