Question regarding <Park for>

[mikem501]

Can you park a call for another extension when you have normal analog extensions?

I have extension A that wants to park a call for extension B because extension B is busy. In other words Extension A wants to get rid of the incoming call and continue playing cards.

I am aware that it can be done using Phone Manager but can you do it from a shortcode?

yes, analogs should work like any other phone,
check your local system shortcodes just in case they have been changed or removed,

the default park call is *37*N#, ride call or pickup park is *38*N#,

Ok, but I want to park the call for an extension because N in this case is the slot number. When you park in the slot and the other party is free, the call is not routed to him but back to the extension that parked the call after 5 minutes.
To solve the problem you have to inform the other party to ride the call from that slot.
Is there a way you can park a call for an extension using a shortcode?

You could try the feature "DailCW"

Creat a new shortcode SC:*54*N# TN:N feature DialCW

this will ring the busy extn with call waiting, now complete the transfer by hanging up.
