Exchange UM is always using the Global Lync Dial plan for calls.

Our multi-tenant exchange UM will have auto-attendants that will do response groups. For example an auto-attenant option may be "technical support" which will ring a technical support queue. We have found that when exchange places the call to the
workflow extension (example 123)) formatted as +11231231234;ext=123 in the workflow that Lync follows the Global dial plan only. This fails because the user dial-plan is what translates the 3 digit extension back to the full E164 format. We have not found
a way to tell the exchange UM which Lync dial-plan to use, and we cannot figure a way to use the exchange dial-plan to format in a proper E164 (number/extension) format. 
We worked around the issue now by using a non-important number sequence for an extension in the exchange auto-attenant, then hard-coding each extension sequence in the Lync  global dial-plan to translate it one-to-one for whatever DID;ext combo it should
map to. This cannot be the best way to do this, however. 
What are your thoughts with calls from exchange to Lync on how a dialplan should be specified?

Well, this is a very interesting article. This is really not the answer to my question, but it does open a side discussion. I have absolutely no problem using a key mapping and dial extension in my Exchange UM AA. Reading this article made me re-test my
AA. I can dial an extension and I can dial a key mapping. I also can say an extension and I can say a key mapping option. I dialed in to test all 4 scenarios and they are working fine. I really should contact Matt on this to find out what scenario made him
write that blog post.
On a different topic, that is not the issue here. My question is after a key-mapping is accepted (and it is) the call is transferred to that extension in Lync. The extension maps to a response group. The response group format is in E164 with the ext= at
the end. The Dial Plan (in Lync) that is used is always Global to translate that extension. In an Enterprise environment, this is most likely not an issue. But, in a hosted environment we cannot rely on anything Global. The dial plan that should be processed
is the user dialplan. 
As I mentioned, I do have this working, but I am stretching the use of the global dialplan to translate a fake extension back into the user dial-plan E164 format. For example:
Exchange UM AA has option '2' for the Help Desk. I have exchange dial extension 000.
In Lync's global dial plan I have a match for extension 000 which translates to +16786660121;ext=296
+16786660121;ext=296 then matches the response group needed for option 2.
Now, if Exchange read the user dial plan that the exchange UM should belong to (paired?) then the global dialplan and the fake 000 extension would not be needed, I could simply just dial 296 and let the user dial plan do the 3 digit to E164 translation it
is already programmed to do.

  • Anyone ever use the global plan for an 5c

    Going to France next week with a iPhone 5c.  Has anyone used the global plan?  How's it work, dialing numbers both in France and US?

    Roger1968,
    Traveling is always an exciting time! And being able to use your phone while traveling is definitely important.
    Our Global plan are awesome! You can get 100 minutes, 100 text to send, and 100MB for only $40. If you only want to use data you can add the $25 and receive 100Mb to use.
    While in France and you want to call the USA, just dial Plus Sign then 1 then ten digit U.S. number. To call a number in France just dial Plus Sign then Country Code then Local Number with Area Code (if applicable). For complete details you can visit http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/tripplanner/tripplannercontroller. Once there enter the country you will be visiting and your phone model. It will provide all the info you need. Keep us posted of you need further assistance.

  • Always use the default account when composing new messages box missing in Outlook 2010 after updating the product key.

    I have 2 accounts in outlook 2010. 1 is for me and the other I have delegate access to. When I am in the delegates email and want to reply it automatically uses the account the email is in. So if I am in my email, the from is me but if I am in the delegates
    email and hit reply the from is them. Now this is not working and I can't figure out how to get it to work. The only thing that changes is that office asked me to activate recently, which is weird since I have had this same computer with the same version of
    office for almost a year now. I did a ton of searching and came across an option on the internet: "Always use the deafult account when composing new messages" but this option is not there on my computer. I checked another computer I have with Office
    2010 also and the option is available so it must be something to do with the office activation because I haven't done it on this computer yet. PLEASE HELP!!!

    Seems this is a hot issue recently, I've post a reply to another thread with the similar topic, please reference that:

  • Firefox always uses the same session id

    Hi,
    our company changes standard browser from IE6 to Firefox 3.5.10 .
    Now we have  great problems with with our ColdFusion application when running it inside Firefox ,because Firefox doesn't create new session id
    when working  in two tabs or two windows. It always uses the same cfid and cftoken.
    So it is not possible to work with two different sessions.
    IE6 always creates new session id when opening new window.
    Has somebody solved this problem? It is very urgent!!!
    regards
    Claudia

    I suspect that this is browser issue, not a server-side (CF) issue.  In order to support different cookies in different tabs you will probably need to try to find a Firefox extension to change how the browser uses cookies.
    This extension is advertised as doing what you need.  Note that I have never used this product.

  • My Photosmart C309g printer ALWAYS uses the photo black cartridge

    I have a photosmart Premium C309g, wireless network connected to an iMac  running OS 10.7.2. I use the printer only occasionally to print photos - I have a smaller HP printer for photos. However the C309g always uses the Photo Black cartridge for print jobs. The printer will not operate without a cartridge fitted. But Photo Black is more expensive! How do I make the printer use the ordinary black cartridge for text jobs?

    Yeah, I did. But if I go to settings and change the standard ring tone again, the ring tone for that special contact is still the old standard tone. But I want to 'tell' my iPhone/iPad that this contact should always have the standard ringtone from settings.

  • HT5538 How do you separate multiple iOS devices using the same apple id account for Face Time calls and iMessaging?

    How do you separate multiiple ios devices using the same apple id account for Face Time calls and iMessaging?

    The only way I have seen is to have each device use a if fervent email account, if they all are on the same email the FaceTime connection is either to a phone number or to an email address.  If they ar all on the same email, it is up to the user to decide which to use.

  • Multiple iphones each with an apple id - can i use the same laptop and itunes for back up, restore and updates?

    We have two iphones each with a different apple id - can i use the same laptop and itunes for back up, restore and updates without risking having my apps overwritten.  Basically does itunes keep the two iphones as two separate entities ?  Does iTunes differentiate between the two devices and keep two different SYNCs ?

    Yes, you can use the same computer for BACK UPS, RESTORING AND UPDATING. But that is it.
    You cannot, however, use it to sync the different devices. iTunes will only recognize one device to sync with and if you sync any other devices with that iTunes library, it will replace what is on the phone with whatever is in the library. It cannot differentiate between devices. At most, it will jsut recognize that the phone has been synced with a different iTunes library.
    So if you would like to use the same computer for backing up, restoring and updating, just make sure to turn of Automatic Syncing in your iTunes Preferences.

    Hi kamfong,
    Went to Settings where?
    If you want to use your exisiting Apple ID on your iPad, you need to:
    1.     Go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and sign out the new ID, and then sign on the old one
    2.     Go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and delete the iCloud account, and the sign back onto iCloud using the old ID
    You still have not indindated why you are saying that using your old ID originally "didn't work". What do you mean by that? Did you get some sort of error when you tried to sign on with your exisiting Apple ID?
    Cheers,

  • How can you use the same e-mail address for multiple ipads?

    I have two iPads.. an iPad and an ipad 2.  I registared my new ipad 2 and now my old ipad is will not let me log on and is telling me that my e-mail address is already in use.  how can you use the same e-mail address for multiple ipads?

    And by using the same Apple ID you can also share purchases.  If you have a different Apple ID for each iPhone then you can't share purchases.

  • I currently have an ipod touch 4th generation for my daughter.  I just bought the same ipod for myself. Before I set it all up, i want to know if i can use the same email/apple id for both of them???

    My daughter has an ipod touch 4th gen.  I just bought one for myself but dont' know if I can use the same email/apple id ???  i'd like to but dont want issues w/ facetime, etc.  Please help!!

    I recommend that you
    Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure the birthdate yo specify results n an age of at least 13 years old.
      Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>GameCenter
    and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.    
    Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

Now I am wanting to know if there is a way to print the photos along with the descriptions; either photo by photo, or maybe more than one per page, or possibly in some sort of booklet format.

  • Using the same Asset Master Record for similar assets

    Dear all,
    I would like to ask if it is possible to use the same asset master record for multiple assets which are similar. The assets will be posted in different periods / fiscal years and therefore the depreciation would change and be charged according to the useful life of the individual assets posted to the same master record and which in turn will vary according to periods / fiscal year posted.
    For example, an asset master record is created for Vehicles. The 1st vehicle with a useful life of 4 years is depreciated at the start of the year for 4 years. The second vehicle is purchased on 6 months after on the 1st June using the same asset master record. However the depreciation is not worked out over the same useful life of the previous vehicle but is extended for a further 6 periods. Is this possible and how is it done.
    Many thanks for any feedback and help.
    Thanks
    PRG

    Dear Peter
    What is the issue in case you created separate Asset Master for each Vehcile ? Is there any specific need for you to accommodate all the assets in one single asset master ?
    I don't think it is correct method as per Company's Act. Over and above, how would you plan for the Fixed Assets Register in the given situation ?
    Regards
