Allows you to assign a voice mailbox to any user.

Forward call to last mailbox in the call forwarding chain	Last sentence completes (br59301) 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. These settings can also be found in the Call destinations section.
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.

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)
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.

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.

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.

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.

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).
