MiCollab Softphone - transfer calls

I have a site that wants to use Soft-phones, but keep their desk phones handy.
A direct call to the soft-phone will allow the user to place the call on hold, transfer, etc.

A call to their desk-phone that is answered on the soft-phone (twinned), does not allow the call to be transferred.

A call to a Multi-call configured on the soft-phone can answer on the soft-phone, but just like above, calls cannot be transferred.



They are considering removing the desk phones and letting the users use just their soft phones, but they have 2 issues that make the transfer issue a big deal.

1 - they have a team number - this is a DN that appears on all the department desk-phones. If I add the team number to the soft-phone, they can't transfer the calls.
Calls to their own DN are call Reroutes 1st Alternative to the team number, and 2nd Alternative to voicemail.

2 - Unless I eliminate the desk phone and renumber the soft-phone to be the desk phone, any calls to the Desk-phone DN will not allow them to transfer the call. Not even if the DP is forwarded to the SP.

The MiCollab client is version 7.3 if that helps.
 
does the extension used for the softphone have a 2nd multicall of the same number set to ring ?

If I never did anything I'd never done before , I'd never do anything.....

Yes - I configured a Multicall of another extension to the softphone.

I was thinking that the issue might have something to do with the MiCollab Client 7.3, so I attempted to upgrade mine - darned if I didn't break that.
