An instant group call rings all members of a pre-defined group simultaneously. As each member of the group answers, they are joined into a multi-way conference.
When someone wants to make an instant group call, they dial the number of the group. All members of the group are rung and, as they answer, they can see from the caller ID that it is an instant group call.
Instant group call groups can be combined with the push to talk service to broadcast a message to a group of users.
See below to find out how to create a broadcast group.
Information for administrators
Instant group call groups can have up to 20 members. Members can be people in your organisation, both at your site and at other sites, or people who are external to your organisation. Each member can belong to as many groups as required. If you need more than 20 people in a group, you can chain groups together by adding another instant group call group as a member of the group.
An instant group call group can be assigned call services, such as accepting and rejecting selected calls. An administrator can set up these services in the same way as for normal users.

To create an instant group call group that you can use to broadcast messages, prefix the phone number of each group member with the push to talk feature access code, *50. Any users who can make or receive a broadcast call need to set up their push to talk settings so that push to talk calls can be made between them.

You can delete an instant group call group when it is no longer needed. When a group is deleted, the phone number becomes available immediately for reassignment.
To delete an instant group call group
You can transfer calls to a person, to a call centre queue or to a hunt group.

The call transfer options available depend upon the application that you are using.
