Selecting Microsoft Licenses

In order to allocate the correct Office 365 features applicable in the country that the user is consuming the license, specify the default Usage Location (country) used for the site. This is mandatory for sites where Office 365 is deployed.

Extension Length

The VOSS-4-UC Number Inventory can be used to manage Direct Inward Dialling Numbers (DIDs) and/or Extension Numbers.

Numbers in the Number Inventory that start with a '+' are considered DIDs.

Features that make use of the VOSS-4-UC Number Inventory selector can derive the Extension at the selected site from the selected DID using the Extension Length configured by the Microsoft Defaults of the site.

VOSS-4-UC supports Extension Lengths between 3 to 7 digits.

Using Extension Length in Microsoft Defaults to derive Extension Numbers from DID numbers

When editing Microsoft Lync / Skype for Business LineURI of users or other features such as Conference Dial-in Access Numbers the Extension Length setting in Microsoft defaults in is handled as follows:

• When user selects an Extension from the VOSS-4-UC Number Inventory the LineURI is set to tel:+<EXT>;ext=<EXT>

• When he user selects a DID from the VOSS-4-UC Number Inventory the LineURI is set to tel:<DID>;ext=<Last 'Extension Length' digits of the DID>

• When does not change anything or enters the LineURI according to the Microsoft Lync / Skype for Business format (i.e. starting with 'T' or 't') no further processing of the LineURI will take place. This allows control of

  • the users DID (e.g. tel:+27215252020;ext=2020) as the user's E164 phone number or,
  • the Operator Number (also called PSTN published number) as the user's E164 phone number.

  Examples:

  • A user with a LineURI of tel:+27215252020;ext=2020 has been assigned a DID of +27215252020 and an Extension Number 2020.
  • A user with a LineURI of tel:+27215252000;ext=2020 has been assigned Extension Number 2020 while the switchboard operator's number +27215252000 will be presented as the user's caller ID when the user makes PSTN phone calls.
  • A user with a LineURI of tel:+27215252025 has been assigned DID of +27215252025.

Updating the VOSS-4-UC Number Inventory

When DIDs and/or Extension Numbers selected as the LineURI, Phone Number or Extension are stored in the VOSS-4-UC Number Inventory the status (used and/or available) of the Extension Numbers and/or DID numbers will be updated accordingly.
