PBX Improvements
- Hide extension from phonebook – this new feature allows setting up an extension not to show in the PBX phonebook:
- “Returned from call transfer” indication – it is now possible to set a prefix that indicates calls that were returned from transfer so that the recipient will be able to determine whether the call is a new call or a returned call.
The setting is done in SETTINGS -> System General -> GENERAL -> Transfer settings.
- “Returned from parking” indication – this feature lets the user see if a received call is a new call or a call that came back from parking by adding a CID prefix.
It is set in PBX -> Applications -> Parking
- Service agreement expiration notification was removed from the user portal. The notification will only be shown on the admin portal.
- Grandstream IP phones provisioning – it is now possible to set custom timezones for Grandstream GRP P64.
- Hot desking extension login – it is now possible to direct-dial into an extension by using a string dialing of the feature code, extension, and password, e.g. *80*EXT*PASS.This allows, for example, setting up BLF buttons for quick login for different users on the device.
