Advanced Call Handling
Advanced call-handling tasks involve special (non-standard) features that your system administrator
might configure for you to use on Cisco IP Communicator, depending on your call-handling needs and
work environment. You will not have access to these features by default.

Storing and Retrieving Parked Calls
You can “park” a call when you want to store the call so that you or someone else can retrieve it from
another phone in the Cisco CallManager system (for example, at a co-worker’s desk or in a conference
room). Call Park is a special feature that your system administrator might configure for you.
Note You have a limited amount of time to retrieve the parked call before it reverts to ringing at its
original destination. See your system administrator for this time limit.
