Mailbox Names and SAA Recognition

If you are using NuPoint UM as your data source, when you configure mailbox settings you must add a name to the mailbox Name field. If the field is blank, the mailbox cannot be used for the SAA user.

NOTE: In order for SAA to ring the extension of the recognized called party, you must configure both the phone number and a pronounceable name.

Special Considerations for Department Names

SAA supports a maximum of 15 departments within its Department List. SAA can support additional departments if they are defined as Mailbox Users. In that case, the additional departments would not appear in the Department List playback, but would be available for speech recognition, similar to system users. Since the department would defined using a mailbox, the mailbox name would need to consist of two words to be recognized by SAA.
