Contact search process

Hello All,
I am trying to understand the process of contact search.
Is it correct that the normal behavior would be:
- search in Lync adress book (by default in local GalContacts.db)
- search in Exchange GAL (via EWS)
- search for personal contacts on Exchange (via EWS)
and then do a merge of these?
And should the filters applied via ABSconfig also apply to contacts found via Exchange GAL (in my situation that doesn't seem to be the case...)?
I am also seeing a different behavior on Lync 2013 (15.0.4711.1002) and Lync for Mac (14.0.11). Is it possible that Lync for Mac doesn't look in Exchange GAL when doing a search?
Thanks in advance for the reponses, I am quite confused regarding this whole search process and cannot find much information about it.
Gael

I stand corrected. I just read this technet article, https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg429711%28v=ocs.15%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
It seems Lync 2013 gives you results for users that are not SIP enabled as well. It can be changed though. Check the above article on how to limit your search to only SIP enabled users.
"While having full contact records in the Address Book files enables you to use Lync Server to initiate email, telephone,
or Enterprise Voice calls (that is, if Enterprise Voice is enabled on the server) with users that are not configured for Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), some organizations prefer to include only SIP-enabled users in their Address Book Server entries."

  • Gnome contacts (-search provider) - high CPU usage

    Hi, my CPU is all the time on 100% usage by process gnome-contact-search-provider until I kill that process. In few minutes the process is back there and again 100% CPU usage.. my CPU fan goes crazy.
    When I run gnome-contacts the app immediately freezes without no error. No contacts visible. And the app was in the past full of contacts.
    Any idea what can be wrong?
    Thanks for any advice

    It seems that working with a lot of Gmail contacts causes problems to gnome-contacts.
    Edit: I suspect that not only that after disabling Gmail contacts sync.

  • Passing result list from Contact search to Target group

    Hi,
    I have to pass the result list of Contact serch(BP_CONT_SEARCH) to Target group creation component(SEGED_TG). Can you give me the steps that I need to follow.
    Note: Here the contact structure is different in each component.
    Thanks.

    Yes Srikanth, you need to bind context of result list to SEGED_TG using component controller binding. Let me know if you have questions.
    But the question is did you make a navigation from the contact search result to target group creation or is it a standard functionality ?
    As per my knowledge we can navigate from Profile set creation creation screen or from Trade Promotions.

  • The chat contacts search functionality is missing

    I have configured the chat in thunderbird. It looks well and better but when I searched for a specific contact in my list of contacts(more than 300) by name or Username, I am unable to search the contact and I found it manually.
    If there is any addon/extension for chat contact search, Please let me know.
    Thanks,

    I can see nothing.
    Look here https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/

  • 808 Pureview contact search not working

    Hi, i am unable to get contact search to work even after enabling it on the call screen. adaptive search under settings has also been turned on. can someone help?

    Try the soft reset and if that does not help, do a hard reset. But remember to back up your device with Nokia suite.
    Hard Reset: 
    Once backed up, enter *#7370# and when prompted, enter 12345 as the default passcode.
    Hope this helps.

  • Where is the Contacts Search feature?

    I have over 4,000 contacts in my list. I need to be able to search for contacts based on information in other fields besides first and last name. Where can I find the Contacts Search/Spotlight input field or equivalent?

    ** BUMP **
    I notice that all the reviews are highlighting how easy it is to SCROLL (browse) the contacts list in the Phone Book, I have yet to figure out how to SEARCH the contacts list. It seems like you can do this when you're entering a Text Message recipient (or, for that matter, addressing an email message), so clearly the ability to perform a "lookup" action is there, but either it's not implemented in the Phone application, or I'm just blind.
    So, to illustrate: Right now, I've sorted my Phone contacts by last name. Suppose I want to call "Michael" but I don't know his last name. In Mac OS X (along with the really good smartphones), I would typically be able to enter his first name and have all the Micahels in my contacts list show up. Not only that, I'd also get search results for anyone who worked for a company called "Michael", or even someone who had "Michael" in their notes field (perhaps I'm looking for "Michael's Secretary"?)
    I hope Apple is paying attention, because something as simple as a contact search REALLY ought to be part of their inevitable 1.1 release!!

  • Anyone tried to get Jabber to work with Domino for contact search

                       I have a customer who has recently upgraded to CUCM 8.6.2.22900-9 and Presence 8.6.4.11900-1 fom CUCM 6.x and Presence 6.x. When they were at 6.x they were able to integrate CUPC contact search with Domino server. I realize this was not supported, but they got it to work. Now they want to attempt to get Jabber to work with Domino. Again I realize that is not a supported LDAP for Jabber, but I was wondering if anyone has perhaps tried this and what their experience was.

  • Search Process HCM P&F Personalization ABAP dynpro

    Hi,
    I ahve Webdynpro ABAP iview search process inj HR admin role.
    I have a selection field called Process name .this field contains a F4 help.
    i would hide some values diplayed in the field.means i want remove few only in this drop down.
    Can this be achieved through personalization for all users.
    Thanks,
    Nachy

    it has to be done at the coding level, You need to modify the search help
    Process browser is based on the BADI implementations of POBJ_BROWSER.
    What i can see is you can enable the PROCESS field in the component
    configuration for OVS search by extending it. You would then have to
    build a WD dialog application for achieving this purpose.
    This OVS application can be triggered by implementing the BADI
    POBJ_BROWSER_OVS.

  • Contacts search function

    Any idea when contact search will be available? It would be great if one could search contacts as easy as in Address Book.

    Good Idea! But Apple may never hear of it unless you submit it!

    P.S. Remember, Apple dosen't look at these forums, so make sure to submit ideas to the above link!!

  • N6700 slide / Contact search in Contacts and Adres...

    Hallo!
    I bought Nokia 6700 slide last week. After the first setup of the exchange mail the contact search worked perfectly: when I started (in Menu/Contacts) to write a name and it was not found in contacts of my phone, nokia immediately offered the possibility to search on exchange server and in same screen returned the found contact (if any).
    Now, after yesterday´s nokia sw actualization (current version 061.004, 20-Oct-2010; User version 061.004.327.02, 14-Dec-2010) this possibility completely disappeared!
    When I now start to write a name and it is not found in contacts of the phone, nokia returns "(žádné shody)" (I have czech language version; in English it means something like "no records found") ...and that´s all. I must then go to Menu\Application\Email\Adresář (Adresář="Adress book") and write the wanted contact in the "Search in Mail for Exchange" field. Contact is then found (if any), so I think that my Exchange mail is configured correctly. Is there any possibility how to get the search function back as it worked before SW actualization (search in Contacts and Adress book in one step)? Thanks for any advice. Vera

    Ah yes, reboot had been tried but to no avail.
    Before doing a soft reset I take screen grabs of my homescreens which will make things easy to get back to how I want them.
    Doing #7780 soft reset now...
    ...done.
    Ah! Messaging threads now show my contacts and their thumbnails  
    Brill!  Contact Search in dialler is also fixed.
    @no1_slumko Thanks!! Have *stared* you.

  • Dialing and contact search lacking up

    About 3 weeks ago my 3gs started to lock up during dialing or contact searches. It wouldn't respond to pad touches, then would suddenly unlock and enter every key I had touched. Contact searches were useless. I've done complete restores. I've made 2 trips to the genius bar...they've even swapped out the phone. The new phone was fine UNTIL I restored from backup...now it's locking up. Voice dialing is fine, and generally dialing from favorites is ok. I'm running 4.2.1, but this started prior to that. I've ntocied the screens 'staggering' a bit between changes.

    So don't restore from Backup then?.
    If something is messed up in the backup then starting again will give you a nice clean functional phone - no brainer really.
    I did it last week and so far, not a single issue.
