Accounts Tab

Note: Some configuration fields are disabled if MiCollab Client is running in MiCollab Integrated mode.

The Accounts tab provides a table that lists all of the MiCollab Client accounts for each Enterprise.

Select the Enterprise from the list box and the following information is displayed for each account configured:
  • Type: There are two types of accounts as indicated by the accounts icons:
  • Synchronized accounts : These accounts are created automatically during synchronizations between the MiCollab Client accounts database and the AD/LDAP directory or PBX node database.
  • Manually-created accounts: These accounts are created manually using the add or copy functions (see below).
  • PRG: Yes indicates that the account has a Personal Ring Group (PRG) configured on the PBX. No indicates the account does not have a PRG.

    Note: For MiVoice Business 5.0 and later only, this field also enables Multi-Device User Groups. Note that with MDUG, once a user is busy in a call, any attempt by that user to originate a new call from another device within the MDUG group, using the MiCollab Client OR physically going off-hook from that device, results in a call failed indication.
  • Active: Indicates if the account is active. This column is only shown if there is at least one account that is not active. Inactive accounts indicate that the account is not properly licensed.
  • Last Name: Indicates the user's last name.
  • First Name: Indicates the user's first name.
  • Desk Phone: Indicates the extension for the user's desk phone.
  • Soft Phone: Indicates the extension for the user's UC Advanced softphone.

You can complete the following tasks for accounts:

    The search function is not case sensitive and it is a "contains" type search versus a "starts with" type search. For example, if you search using the search string "br", the search will return all of the accounts that include "br" in either the first or last name.

    • First Name
