Hot Desking loads your extension settings to a shared phone and use it as your own, regardless of where you physically sit.
This will be useful for Salespeople using an UP Desk and F&I floaters. The UP Desks are not able to make outbound calls if you are not hot desked into them.
To Hot Desk into a phone:
Dial *43 from a shared phone to log in.
Enter your extension number
Enter your dialable password (default 0000).
This is separate from your voicemail password and can be changed by dialing *19.
You will hear two beeps, and then the phone will reboot with the appropriate settings (this can take up to 30 sec).
If you dial emergency services, dispatch will see the Emergency Services Caller ID assigned to the phone.
Dial *43 again to log out of a shared phone.
Logging out of a shared phone automatically logs you out of any call queues you were logged in to while hot desking.
