Posted on by Admin

  External Voice mail access, using Unity Connection External voice mail access. Yes, often requested, hardly ever used in my experience. The solution described below is also good for VM that gets dumped on shared mail boxes, where people don’t have the extension configured on the phone (for instance IVR overflow, or no agents logged in). This access will allow a user not only to listen to messages, but also to change greetings and other…

Direct Transfer to Voicemail

Direct Transfer to Voicemail   This post describes how to configure direct tranfer of calls to a person’s voicemail.

UCCE Scripting Example

Posted on by Admin

UCCE Scripting Example OK, so UCCE scripts work differently from UCCX scripts. Because I personally hate reading manuals and configuration guides, i always like to learn new things hands on and supplement that with theoretical knowledge. This approach has always served me well, ever since I entered into IT.  So let me do some explanation around UCCE scripting using an example.
