Combine Group-Page and TAC dial?

[Reffetsevla]

Hey All,

Relatively new to Avaya, been in telecommunications for 12+ years but only been on the Avaya CM for a few months. Running 7.1, never patched because the contracting company was garbage.

What I've been asked to do, is see if I can find a way to take three separate groups and combine them, WITHOUT disrupting the integrity of the current settings.
There are currently two Group-Page extensions (We'll say 58888 and 58889) and then there's a Trunk group, TAC *427.

Currently you can call either of the group extensions and page that way, or you can dial *427 and do an overhead page via the trunk group.

Is there any way we can have a single recording, get pushed out to all three locations simultaneously? Not an announcement, need it to be a "new" recording on the fly as they go.

Any guidance would be helpful, thanks!

Avaya CM software blocks conference of paging and group-page groups. Limit of group-page size is 32.
This was designed this way due to time-slots usage in cabinets and media-gateways being maxed out while paging.
Paging loudspeaker does allow combination of zones by using All zone code.

Thank you for the info! I didn't know this feature even existed. Being asked to do some very odd things with this system. Upgrade incoming, just a year or two out still.

Thanks!
