Ad Hoc Groups

Ad Hoc Groups

Your administrator can configure
PTT Pro for Android
to retrieve the complete list of groups in your department when you log in. This includes groups in which you are not a member, referred to as ad hoc groups. Refer to the
Workcloud Communication PTT Pro for Android Configuration Guide
for information regarding the Dynamice Ad Hoc Groups parameters.
When you login,
PTT Pro
retrieves the list of groups and their users belonging to the same PTT Pro department. Your group membership determines whether a PTT call to the group is a group call or an ad hoc call. If you are a member of the group,
PTT Pro
sends a group call. If you are not a member of the group,
PTT Pro
sends an ad hoc call.
