    Article Summary

    Dialpad and Polycom offer three ways to transfer calls between team members or on your Polycom device. The first method is the Warm Transfer, where you can type in the extension or number, choose from your recent dial list, and press Dial to initiate the call. Once the recipient answers, you can press Transfer Now to complete the connection. The second method is the Search Phone Book, where you select Phone Book, search for a name, press Call to initiate the call, and then press Transfer once the recipient answers. If the recipient is unavailable or doesn't want to take the call, you can press End Call and take back the original caller by pressing the active line button. The third method is transferring to voicemail, where you select VM Transfer, choose from a list or search for someone specific, and press Transfer to complete the transfer.
