• Call forwarding destination can be edited
• It does not have source-based call forwarding

You have created a profile "Vacation". To define exactly what this profile should do, you can either activate one of the call forwarding conditions

• Always
• Busy
• No answer
• Not registered

or you can set a rule and use source-based call forwarding (for more information, see Source-based call forwarding).

Or you can set a rule and use source based call forwarding:

Source based call forwarding means, you can choose a specific source, a telephone number, and define a rule - so what should happen if this specific telephone number calls you.

- Click on the + button in the "Vacation" tab and add a rule.

- Choose the source, the telephone number you would like to define your rule for.e.g. you choose the phone extension of a colleague Clara.

- In order to set this rule, select the condition "Always".

- Define the destination to which Clara's call should be forwarded to, e.g. your voicemail.

- Save the rule.

You can also signal a busy tone by selecting "Busy" or you can define a certain phone number to which the call should be forwarded to.

There are four call forwarding conditions, Always, Busy, No answer and Not registered.

1. Select a call forwarding condition.
2. Select a call forwarding destination via the Destination dropdown below the call forwarding condition. You can select between three options, Voicemail, Busy and Phone number.

What do the call forwarding conditions mean:

• Always

The call will always be forwarded. The caller will be forwarded directly to the defined destination.

Please note that if this forwarding condition is active, it will influence the call destination on Global DND. That means that Global DND will have the same call forwarding destination as defined here.

• Busy

The call will be forwarded if your extension is busy. The caller receives a busy signal and will then be forwarded to the defined destination.

Please note that if this forwarding condition is active, it will influence the call destination on Global DND. That means that Global DND will have the same call forwarding destination as defined here.

• No answer

The call will be forwarded if you do not answer within a defined time limit. The caller receives a waiting signal and will then be forwarded to the defined destination.

The time limit can be set to 5, 10, 15 or 20 seconds by clicking on the number dropdown.

• Not registered

The call wil be forwarded if your device is not registered on PBX (e.g. broken cable etc.). All incoming calls will be forwarded to a defined destination.
