PSTN Call Transfer
If I have a Phone System (+ Direct Routing) license in my Teams profile. Can I transfer calls that come from the PSTN to any user with MS Teams even if I don't have a Phone System license?
- Hi Benny,
As far as I understand it, the only users who will need the licence - from your explanation, would be the 50 pilot users and then the 400 users as you roll out and phase them into the solution. Am making an assumption here but taking it the other 900 are using mobiles or are on some other phone system. If they are being phased in later on they will need licences later on at that point.
I don’t believe that the recipients of a forwarded call from a direct routing user needs to have phone system if they aren’t using direct routing and using something else (I.e. mobile or on premise pbx)
Best, Chris
From how I think this should work, is that if you have one user who has Phone system license and they get a call and transfer to another user, the other user don't need it.
If you use AA and CQ, the users who get those calls does not need to have Phone system to answer the calls.
The AA need to have "virtual user - phone system" for the resource users, but the CQ resource user don't need to be licensed with anything because it use the sip address to transfer the call.
- Thank you. This means that if the receptionist passes an external call (PSTN) to a Microsoft Teams Mobile / Desktop version user (without Phone System License) then this user can receive it. Super good!
bennyplasenciaDid you ever test this as I was going to raise the same question?
We would like 10 external PTSN numbers and 50 people using Teams (These people have mobile phones so no need to make PTSN calls)
