Call queue: Sign in and Sign out of queue
A Skype for Business (Lync) call queue lets nominated staff members answer phone calls to a Response Group queue.Within the portal it is possible to configure the call queue and assign nominated staff (https://portal.thevoiceofo365.com).
Staff can then sign-in to the queue when "on-duty" to answer incoming calls to the queue number, and sign-out when "off-duty".
Calls to the queue will only ring on your computer if you are signed-in to the queue. You can either stay signed in all the time, or sign-in and sign-out as needed.
