Call Queue Basics

Body

Overview

Multiple employees can respond to calls from a shared phone number by using a call queue. Calls are distributed among a number of users according to set routing rules instead of being routed to a single individual.

Greetings and Call Routing

Before reaching an agent, callers may hear:

  • Welcome greetings
  • Recorded announcements
  • Hold music
  • Estimated wait messaging

After the greeting plays, Teams attempts to route the call to an available agent.
