Executives can enable Call Screening, which displays the incoming call notification for all filtered
executive calls on the executive's phone.
Call Screening is only available when Call Filtering is enabled.
Procedure
1. On the Home screen of the executive’s phone, select Executive.
2. Select Call Screen then select On.

Executives can view a list of assigned assistants and see which assistants have opted-in or out of
accepting filtered calls for the executive.
Procedure

2. Select Assigned Assistants.
Assistant Options
Assistants can monitor an executive's calls, place calls on behalf of an executive, filter and divert
executive calls, and opt-in or out of monitoring calls for an executive.
Answering Executive Calls
When a call is placed to an executive's line and Call Filtering is enabled, the call is displayed on the
assistant's phone only. Incoming call notifications for an executive call display with the executive's name
in the notification on the assistant's phone. Assistants can answer, reject, or ignore any executive calls.
When Call Screening is enabled, incoming call notifications also display on the executive's phone, and
the executive can choose to answer the call.
Place a Call on Behalf of an Executive
As an assistant, you can make calls on behalf of any of your assigned executives.
When a call is made on behalf of an executive, a solid red bar displays on the executive’s line key, if the
executive’s line is a shared line.
Procedure
1. On the Home screen of the assistant’s phone, select Assistant.
2. On the Overview Executive screen, select Executives then choose an executive.
