In this configuration the presence state information is sent as a dial command to the phone systems. Some phone systems support dial commands to e.g. change to DND and back to Ready for Calls. Contact your phone vendor if you do not know the codes.

 

Use the command in the Reason Code field.

 

Example

Presence State Label: Ready for Calls

Reason Code: *60

Presence Status: 1 (Online)

 

Presence State Label: Do Not Disturb

Reason Code: *61

Presence Status: 4 (DND)

 

Note - *60 is an example and is different per PBX. You have to contact the PBX vendor to get the correct dial commands.

If activated, you can change the presence state for Skype for Business in the CTI Data Connector SoftPhone. Changing the presence state in Skype for Business however does have no effect on the CTI Data Connector SoftPhone.

 

Select in Main Setup - Call Center Configuration , Call Center Presence State the pre-delivered configuration: Skype for Business - Presence State

 

 

In case Call Wrap Up time in seconds is configured, the status in Skype for Business is changed instantly after the call to Do Not Disturb. This ensures that the user will get no inbound call. Once the defined number of seconds is over, the presence state goes automatically back to Ready for Calls.

 

Call Wrap Up time is not activated for

 

phone calls with duration of 0 seconds (ring only)

internal calls

 

If you dial with the  CTI Data Connector SoftPhone the status is always set to Ready for Calls in case it is on Do Not Disturb.

 

Skype for Business needs special codes, which have to be configured as Reason Codes. There is a pre-configured Call Center Adapter for Skype for Business.

 

Find below the configuration for Skype for Business with the matching codes.
