Temporary Bridged Appearance allows multiappearance telephone users in a 
terminating extension group (TEG) or personal central office line (PCOL) group 
to bridge onto an existing group call. If a call has been answered using the Call 
Pickup feature, the originally called party can bridge onto the call. This feature 
also allows a called party to bridge onto a call that redirects to coverage before the 
called party can answer it. 

An incoming call to a TEG or PCOL group is not a call to an individual, although 
one particular member of the group can be the most qualified person to handle the 
given call. If this individual did not answer the call originally, this individual can 
bridge onto the call; the call does not have to be transferred.

A call to an individual can be answered by a call pickup group member. If the 
called party returns while the call is still connected, the called party bridges onto 
the call and the answering party hangs up.

Call Coverage provides redirection of calls to alternate answering positions 
(covering users). A temporary bridged appearance is maintained at the called 
telephone.
