Extension record

When editing an extension, the following settings are available:

  • Name-This is used to label the extension. This is typically the name of the user of the extension and is displayed in the "Extensions" view of the client's presence window.
  • Department-This is used to assign the extension to a department. Extensions can be sorted by department in the "Extensions" view of the client's presence window.
  • DID Number-This is used to assist the Telephony service when calculating the destination of direct inbound calls. Enter any value as presented by the network provider (normally the last 4-6 digits) if DID calls do not appear to be correctly associated with the relevant device.
  • Ignore answer messages-This should be set for voice processing equipment, such as voice mail, if you do not want to consider a call as 'answered' even though the call is answered at this device.
  • Do not monitor-This is set when you want to ignore telephony activity at this extension.
  • Used as main number-Setting this will treat calls to this device as operator calls.
  • Use name from telephone system-Checking this box will allow the software to automatically use any new name given to an extension when the telephone system is re-programmed.
  • Analog handset/Mobex-Set this if the device is an analog handset (i.e. a fax machine, modem or non-digital or IP handset) or if it is a virtual mobex device.
  • Requires logged in user-If this box is checked then calls are prohibited from this extension unless a user using this extension is logged in to the client software.
  • Hide status-Do not show users with this value set on the 'Presence' window.
  • Keep call details private-Details of an active call the extension is engaged in will not be displayed in another user's presence view.
