Always treat mobile calls as available

This toggle allows you to receive calls on your mobile phone even if your status in the platform is set as unavailable. It’s particularly useful if you want to ensure you’re reachable on your mobile regardless of your fixed phone’s availability settings.

Availability status

This status setting allows you to manually indicate your current availability. You can choose from various options such as “Meeting,” “Lunch,” “Vacation,” “Busy,” “Gone” or “Gone for the day.” Selecting “Available” means you are present and ready to communicate, whereas the other statuses block calls and inform your colleagues of specific conditions that might affect your ability to respond or take calls.

Message

Announcement
