Available settings
Call with
Choose between click to call and softphone for outgoing calls from the switchboard. Click to call generates a call to your mobile phone or IP device, then answered before calling the recipient. You call directly from the switchboard with a headset connected to the PC with a softphone.
Transfer with (shortcut)
Select the default method for forwarding calls when clicking on the telephone number of colleagues in the Company Directory. This is by default set to forward with a return, but you can select forward without return or assisted forwarding. You can always open a contact and choose between the different methods regardless of this choice.
Number routing
Determine where incoming calls should be directed when they come to your mobile and/or fixed number. In the example screenshot, the user is registered with two phone numbers. Using the toggle, they have configured calls to the mobile number to be sent to both the mobile phone and the softphone, while calls to the fixed number are also routed to Teams.
Caller ID allows you to choose which number is displayed when making an outgoing call, such as your company’s main number.
With Time Management, you can specify that the selected Caller ID is used only during the defined opening hours. Outside of these hours, your standard Caller ID will be displayed.
Settings
SMS sender allows you to define the sender number or name for SMS messages sent from the switchboard.
Click to call agent allows you to choose whether the mobile phone or IP device is to be applied for click to call.
Retrieving queue calls to agent allows you to choose whether the mobile phone or IP device should be the default recipient when you retrieve queue calls manually in the switchboard.

Notification for log in and log out
