From MeetingTime
MeetingPlace can outdial people in three ways:
1.
Automated outdial to teams
You can select a Team and request that all the members be outdialed.
The system will dial each member using the phone number specified in
their profile.

2.
Automated outdial to missing invitees
While attending a meeting, users with outdial privileges can request that
participants who are invited but have not arrived be outdialed.
MeetingPlace searches the invited users’ list of names and marks those
that are already in the meeting. It then checks to see if enough free ports
are available and outdials each of the missing invitees (regardless of
participant notification preferences).

Screened outdial to a profile user or phone number
Any MeetingPlace user with outdial privileges can outdial to individuals
one at a time. A MeetingTime user can specify a participant or team,
then click the dial button to begin outdialing. MeetingPlace provides the
telephone number from the participants’ user profiles, and allows users
to override the phone number if necessary. The system connects the
participant who dialed out with the dialed person, allowing the two
parties to speak before being placed in the meeting.

Note: To initiate a screened outdial you must be attending the meeting by
telephone. If the participant initiating the outdial is not attending the
meeting from the phone, selecting screened outdial will result in the system
outdialing the user first.

How Are Meetings Set Up?
To set up meetings on MeetingPlace, users require a profile with the
appropriate scheduling privileges. A profile uniquely identifies a user on the
system, and it contains the user’s privileges and preferences for setting up
meetings.
