Add or Delete RSC Group Members
Use the Add_Member and Del_Member commands on the RSC Group screen to 
add and delete members within an RSC Group.
Figure 3-4   Add or Delete RSC Group Members
General ProcessAfter a group has been created through the Add command, use the Add_Member 
command to add records to the new group. When you select the Add
_Member 
command, prompts for identification of the group and the search field display. 
Phone Control searches the MCS database within the indicated search field 
parameters and displays the results. This display, from which records are selected 
for the RSC group, contains location information about each extension and 
notations that indicate the Default Restriction (D
_RSC) and the Current Restriction 
(C
_RSC) in effect for each extension. Use the Delete_Member command to 
remove records from the designated group when necessary.
Group DeletionIf all of the records in a group are deleted and the group is not scheduled through 
the RSC Scheduling option, the RSC group is automatically deleted.
WarningThe color in which a record is displayed changes once the record is selected. You 
cannot detect the change in color if the record is highlighted. Move the highlighted 
bar to another record to determine if that record has been selected. Be careful if the 
display contains only one record since you cannot move the highlight bar to another 
record. 
Note:
The color is configurable via the Set Menu Colors option on the MCS Platform 
Management menu.
