# Users

This view is used to create new users and assign a number of properties to them.

## General user settings

Table 1. User details
Parameter | Explanation
Call number | Unique, internal call number of the user, which is specified in the internal numbering plan. This is the key and identification element of a user.
Name | Name of the user
PIN | Terminal PIN. This is valid for all phones assigned to this user. Default value is ‘0000’. The PIN must be between 2 and 8 digits. Note: When using SIP-DECT, a PIN length of 4 digits must be used.
Windows user name | User name of the user’s Microsoft Windows workstation. The Windows user name is used by various client applications and by Microsoft Exchange. Note: OIP synchronises the Windows user name between OIP and communication server. This picture shows the synchronisation pattern. The full circle means that an input is available, the empty circle means that the input is empty. The direction of the arrow indicates the synchronisation direction. If OIP (and TWP) is/are deployed via the application card, the Windows user name is automatically entered in the user configuration of OIP (and TWP) client applications.
Use PIN instead of password | On the BluStar 8000i phone or on a BluStar client application log on with Windows user name and PIN instead of with Windows user name and password.
Password | Windows password. Used to log on to a BluStar 8000i phone or to a BluStar client application together with the Windows user name.
Password confirmation | Enter the password again.
E-mail address | E-mail address of the user It is used firstly as destination address for the notification on receipt of a voice message and, secondly, it is automatically entered in the configuration of this user’s OIP and TWP client applications, provided OIP and TWP are operated via the applications card.
User language | Select here the user language for the Self Service Portal and fax server. The user can change this at any time using the language setting in the Self Service Portal.

Table 2. Settings
Parameter | Explanation
Licence / Role | If you wish to set up this user for MiCollab, in the first options menu select a UCC licence and assign it a MiCollab role in the second options menu. You can find more information on how to set up MiCollab users here "BluStar / MiCollab".
Permission set | The permission set specifies a user’s permissions with regard to telephony features.
Authorization profile | The authorization profile specifies a user's access rights to the communication server for configuration or servicing purposes.
Route | The route uses the trunk group allocation to determine which network interface is used to route an outgoing call.
Allow call forwarding on terminating KT lines | A call forwarding is executed in any case, even if a key telephone (KT) line on a phone is marked as Terminating KT line.
Number of private contacts | Specifies the upper limit for this user’s number of private contacts (regardless of the phones assigned).
Cost centre | User’s charge counter.
Connection | Normal: Normal, personal phone (standard value) Phone booth: Public, non-personal phone, e.g. in a hotel phone booth. The setting results, among others, in different inputs in the outgoing connection data recording (OCL).
Use for CTI | If several terminals are assigned to the user, you can select here the terminal to be used for CTI (e.g. for Mitel Dialer).
Re-enable user account for Self Service Portal and Blustar 8000i | With valid authentication, the user has access to their phone settings and phones through the Self Service Portal and can log in on an Mitel BluStar 8000i. The user account can be locked manually or automatically after four incorrect login attempts.

## Terminals

Several phones or terminals can be assigned to a user. Lets you add a new phone or modify ones that have already been added. During this time you will automatically switch to the terminal view. You can assign a user at most 16 phones/terminals; at most 2 of them may be DECT wireless phones. The following phones/phone applications may be assigned only once to a user:

- Operator phone, PC attendant

- MiVoice 2380 IP IP softphone

- Mitel SIP-DECT cordless phone

## Terminal profiles

Terminal profiles contain all the personal settings of a terminal (e.g. audio settings, idle text, key configuration, etc.) To facilitate the configuration for many users with a lot of terminals, you can preconfigure these settings.

Lets you add a new terminal profile or modify ones that have already been added. More or less personal settings can be configured, depending on terminal type.

You can assign a user several terminal profiles of different terminal types, but also of the same terminal type. The advantage of the latter possibility is that you can preconfigure and, if need be, assign different terminal profiles for different situations. (In the User list under Terminals appears in the Terminal profiles column an options menu where you can select the terminal profile to be used.)

## Multimedia

Here you can assign the user the right to use various OIP and TWP CTI applications. Except for the PC operator console setting the settings appear only if you configure an Mitel 470 communication server with integrated applications card. The settings are used to set up the integrated fax service and to preconfigure the OIP and TWP CTI servers integrated on the applications card with user-specific data. The settings are irrelevant if you use OIP and TWP servers discreetly and not via the applications card. The configuration is then made manually in each particular server application.

## Voice mail

Allows you to assign a voice mailbox to any user.

Table 9. Voice mail settings
Parameter | Explanation
Voice mailbox | A voice mailbox is assigned to the user. No voice mailbox is assigned to the user.
Automatic call forwarding to voice mail | An incoming call is automatically forwarded to the user's voice mailbox if the user does not answer the call, is busy, rejects the call.
Forward call to last mailbox in the call forwarding chain | If the call forwarding chain begins with this user and ends on the voice mail system, the call is forwarded to the mailbox of the last user in the call forwarding chain. If the call forwarding chain begins with this user and ends on the voice mail system, the call is forwarded to the user’s mailbox.
E-mail notification | Newly recorded voice messages generate an e-mail to the user’s e-mail address, provided it is configured under the User heading, and also to the e-mail addresses entered under Notification destinations (message waiting indication via e-mail). Note: This function presupposes the Enterprise Voice Mail licence.
Additional notification destinations (comma separated e-mail addresses) | E-mail notifications are sent to the user’s e-mail address as standard. If the e-mail notifications are to be sent to other destinations, enter the e-mail addresses here. Separate the individual e-mail addresses with a comma.
Attach voice message | An audio file with the recorded voice message is also sent as an e-mail attachment. Note: If the size of the audio file exceeds the maximum size specified, it is not sent along too. You can set the maximum size under Configuration/IP network/SMTP Server. Audio files are only sent along if the G.711 codec is set.
Delete voice message after sending | Deletes the voice message from the phone and the system after the successful email transmission. hint: MiVoice Office 400 verifies that the email can sent to the SMTP server. MiVoice 400 does not validate if SMTP server has delivered the email to the receiver. Make sure that the receiver email address is valid and can receive emails from MiVoice Office 400. Voice message is kept in the system in accordant with the settings under Configuration > Services > Voice mail > General (Retention period field)
Number of rings before answer | CFU delay until the voice mail system answers the call. With Call Forwarding on No Reply (CFNR) the configured delay must also be added.
You can set up the e-mail service under Configuration / IP network.

## Call recording

A user can record an internal or external conversation, with the necessary rights. The recorded data are stored as wave file (in G.711 format) and sent to one or more e-mail addresses. Once they have been sent, wave files are deleted on the communication server.

Note:

Conversation recording may violate existing data protection regulations in your country, or may only be allowed on certain conditions. Notify your correspondent in advance if you wish to use the conversation-recording function.

The maximum recording time for each wave file depends on the configuration of the parameter Maximum e-mail size [Mbyte] with SMTP server. The setting 2 MByte corresponds to approximately 2 minutes recording time. The recording time increases by approx. 2 minutes for each additional MByte. If the maximum recording time is reached, the system stops recording and sends a wave file to the defined e-mail address(es). At the same time the system automatically starts a new recording and stores it in a second wave file, etc. This way no conversation information is lost, and recordings overlap each other by about 2 seconds.

The following conditions must be fulfilled before a user can start recording a conversation:

- The SMTP server is configured in the system configuration.

- A valid e-mail sender address for the SMTP server has to be defined in the system configuration.

- At least one e-mail address is configured at the user's.

- The user is assigned a permission set, on which the authorisation for Conversation recording is set to Manual. (If authorisation is set to Automatic, conversation recording cannot be started manually).

- The Enterprise Voice Mail licence is available and at least one audio channel is available for conversation recording.

- Internal DECT-DECT connections cannot be recorded.

- If the recording is made on an IP or SIP phone, additional VOIP channels may sometimes be required to convert voice data.

Table 10. E-mail destinations for call recordings
Parameter | Explanation
Send call recordings to user | Each recorded conversation is sent as an e-mail wav attachment to the user's e-mail address. If no e-mail address is recorded for the user, the e-mail is not sent.
Send call recordings to the following recipients (comma separated) | Each recorded conversation is sent as an e-mail wav attachment to the e-mail addresses listed here. List the e-mail addresses, separated by commas.

## Call forwarding

Here you can see also directly modify a user's current, activated call forwarding operations.

Table 11. Active
Parameter | Explanation
Call forwarding type | Call forwarding type.
Call forwarding destination | Call number of the user to which the call is being forwarded.
Name | Name of the user to which the call is being forwarded (destination user).

Additionally, preconfigured call forwarding and standard call forwarding can be specified here if required.

Table 12. Call destinations
Parameter | Explanation
Hotline | To activate the hotline for this user, select one of the preconfigured hotline destinations. As soon as the user seizes the line, the stored hotline call number is dialled automatically after the global hotline delay has expired. Note: The hotline destinations can also be defined individually for each phone in the telephone settings. The configuration on the phone takes precedence over the user configuration.
Preconfigured call forwarding unconditionally (CFU) | Preconfigured call forwarding is one forwarded to the destination configured here, and can be switched on and off by the user (*22/#22). It is also used for forwarding to text messages if callers cannot read the text message (e.g. no internal system device with display or external destination).
Preconfigured call forwarding on no reply (CFNR) | Preconfigured call forwarding on no reply (CFNR) is one forwarded to the destination configured here, and can be switched on and off by the user (*62/#62).
Coded call | Here, this user can be assigned a preconfigured coded ring pattern for the personal ring settings using the general bell.
Forward call to last mailbox in the call forwarding chain | Last sentence completes (br59301) f the call forwarding chain begins with this user and ends on the voice mail system, the call is forwarded to the mailbox of the last user in the call forwarding chain. If the call forwarding chain begins with this user and ends on the voice mail system, the call is forwarded to the user’s mailbox. These settings can be found in the Voice mail section.
DECT Follow me (call number) | “DECT Follow me” is a feature that allows cordless phones in a PISN to be contacted in up to 4 DECT systems (A...D) (roaming). A DECT Follow me (call number) is configured on every communication server for the corresponding user which will be called automatically as soon as the phone is registered in the system. This diverts the call to the communication server to which the cordless phone is logged in at the time. The previously activated forwarding will be deactivated when the phone logs back into the original communication server. Note: Detailed information and tips on the configuration can be found in the Knowledge Base in an application note (TI 0847). An AIN guarantees the availability of the cordless phones at all nodes even without the "DECT Follow me" feature (Network Wide Roaming).

Standard call forwarding cannot be switched on and off by the user. They are activated as soon as a forwarding destination has been defined and provided no other CFUs have been activated by the user or system.

Standard call forwarding does not apply to calls that are offered to the user via a user group.

Table 13. Default call forwarding if no answer
Parameter | Explanation
Internal call delay (s) | Delay in seconds for activating standard call forwarding if the user does not answer an internal call.
CFNR destination for internal calls | Enter the call number of the forwarding destination here. With the entry, this standard call forwarding is activated at the same time.
External call delay (s) | Delay in seconds for activating standard call forwarding if the user does not answer an external call.
CFNR destination for external calls | Enter the call number of the forwarding destination here. With the entry, this standard call forwarding is activated at the same time.
Priority over activated CFNR | If the user has activated call forwarding on no reply, then either the CFNR or standard call forwarding is made depending on which delay is shorter. If the user has activated call forwarding on no reply, then standard forwarding is not made.

Table 14. Default call forwarding if busy
Parameter | Explanation
CFB destination for internal calls | Enter the call number of the forwarding destination here. With the entry, this standard call forwarding is activated at the same time.

Internal call: Satellite in offline mode or port inactive | Enter here the call number of the forwarding destination for calls that do not reach the user for the following reasons: The user is on a satellite that is currently in offline mode. The phone is connected to a terminal port that is no longer active. This can occur when an interface card is not inserted, for example.
External call: Satellite in offline mode or port inactive

## Presence and personal call routing

Presence Profiles

The presence profiles allow a user to manage his incoming calls individually, taking his presence status into account. When he leaves his workstation for example, he can activate the presence profile provided for absences.

When activated, the presence profile can either activate a CFU, select one of the predefined personal call routings, or both.

The presence profiles contain action commands that are executed when activated.

Here you can configure the presence profiles. A presence profile can also be activated directly.

Table 17. Presence profiles
Parameter | Explanation
Active (option button) | Activates a presence profile
Description | Lets you enter an additional text to be displayed to the caller. Example: If you add the text "On holiday until the end of the week" to the absence profile, the internal caller will see the following status message on his phone: "Absent - On holiday until the end of the week". The text can also be entered and edited on the phone by the user himself.
Action | Lets you define the routing response for an active presence profile: No profile specific actions: A call is routed in accordance with the user settings. Call forwarding: A call is routed to the defined forwarding destination. Personal call routing: A call is signalled in accordance with the selected personal call routing. Personal call routing and call forwarding: A call is signalled in accordance with the selected personal call routing. The call is also forwarded to the defined call destination.
Int./Ext. | You can configure two call destinations: Int: This call destination is used for internal, incoming calls. Ext: This call destination is used for external, incoming calls. Note: This configuration is only possible via WebAdmin or Self Service Portal, but not via a terminal. Only one call forwarding operation is visible on the terminal. If both call destinations are configured, the destination for external calls is displayed on the terminal.
Call forwarding / Destination number | You can forward calls to the voice mail system or to another user. You can choose between call forwarding unconditional (CFU) or call forwarding on no reply (CFNR).
Personal call routing | Here you can select one of the five possible personal call routings. You configure them in the next configuration section.
Voice mail greeting | Here you define which voice mail greeting is to be activated: No profile specific actions: The greeting used is the one currently set with the user. Absence information: The caller obtains predefined, non-modifiable absence information. It also contains a date and time indication, providing the user has entered this information via his system phone. Global greeting: The caller is played the global greeting. Personal greeting 1...3: The caller obtains one of the personal greetings (this setting is provided only if personal greetings have been set up for this particular user).

Personal call routing:

Personal call routing lets you specify which phones assigned to the user should ring with incoming calls.

Here you can configure the five available personal call routings. You can also select which profile should currently be activated:

- Use the check boxes to select for each personal call routing the phones that should ring ().

- The text fields let you specify a name for the personal call routings, e.g. “Office”, “Home office”, “Silence”, “On the move”. The text can also be entered and edited on the phone by the user himself.

- The option button is used to activate one of the personal call routings. The personal call routing can also be entered and edited on the phone by the user himself.

## Other settings

A user can use the menu prompting on his system phone or function codes #/* to protect himself from other users using telephony features on him. Lets you set the defaults.

Table 19. Call identification (CLIP)
Parameter | Explanation
The CLIP numbers of outgoing calls can be influenced by the settings in the trunk group configuration. The link between the settings for outgoing call identification at the user's and the present settings are shown in a graphical overview (hyper link below this table).
Create CLIP number automatically | The call number display at the called party is determined automatically by the communication server based on the dialling-in number and other parameters. You can define the transmitted call number presentation yourself under CLIP number and determine Numbering plan identifier (NPI) and Type of number (TON).
Numbering plan identifier (NPI) | The numbering plan is used to analyse numbers and allocate them to an addressable destination. Unknown: The NPI attribute is not set. E.164: Thus type of numbering type is used in a public network that is defined and standardised by ITU-T. PNP: This type of numbering plan is used in the private sector (PNP=Private Numbering Plan). The internal numbering plan of a communication server or a private network is also of the type PNP, as is a private numbering plan offered by public network operators.
Type of number (TON) (for numbering plan type = E.164) | The Type of number (TON) must be made to match the CLIP number and the dialling-in number format (the examples in brackets are dialling-in numbers that refer to the call number “+41 32 624 1344”): Unknown: (standard setting): The CLIP number is not entered according to a specified format (example: “44”, “1344”, “0326241344”. If you select this format, you need to match the CLIP number with the user’s dialling-in number. Subscriber: Enter the CLIP number with this setting in accordance with the user number format: “6241344”. National: (Recommendation): Enter the CLIP number with this setting in accordance with the national format: “326241344”. International: Enter the CLIP number with this setting in accordance with the international format: “41326241344”. Use National or International and the corresponding dialling-in numbers if you have activated Special Arrangement (CLIP not screening) with your network provider.
Type of number (TON) (for numbering plan identifier PNP) | Unknown: The TON attribute is not set. Level 0: Regional number: Addresses destinations within the same region (Level 0). Example: 3131 Level 1: Regional number with a region prefix Addresses destinations in all Level 0 regions, located in the same, higher-order region (Region Level 1). Example: 60 3131. Level 2: Regional number with a Level 1 region prefix and another region prefix. Addresses destinations in all Level 1 regions, located in the same, higher-order region (Region Level 2). Example: 42 60 3131.
CLIP number | Enter here the CLIP number according to the dialled number type (see settings Type of number (TON).
Restrict call identification (CLIR) | Call identification during the call phase is suppressed for outgoing calls.
CLIR for redirection | Situation: A user with an active CLIR has redirected a call to the public network. Call identification during the call phase is suppressed when a call is redirected. Call identification during the call phase is not suppressed when a call is redirected.
Restrict call identification while connected (COLR) | all identification during the call is suppressed for outgoing calls.
COLR for redirection | Situation: A user with an active COLR has redirected a call to the public network. Call identification during the call is suppressed when the call is redirected . Call identification during the call is not suppressed when the call is redirected.
