Conference call initiated from callthru

Hi,

Is it possible to initiate a conference call from callthru? So perhaps something like dial-in to callthru-> connect the first line->put first line on hold->dial second line->conference the two lines

Thanks a lot.

RE: Conference call initiated from callthru

Yes, that's possible now. We have been working on callback and callthru lately to make it as easy as possible and this is the recipe:

• Dial first party.
  
• Blind transfer to conference room of ext. 200 by pressing "*2 8200"
  
• You get another dialtone. Dial second party.
  
• Conference by pressing "*2 8200"
  
• New dialtone. Now dial 8200 to join the conference yourself.
