The Microsoft Quick Add Subscriber feature provides provides a simple interface for allocating supported Microsoft UC services to users that have been added to Microsoft Active Directory and synchronized into VOSS Automate from Microsoft Lync / Skype for Business.

The interface is for service additions and the detailed configuration is hidden from administrators delegated to perform these operations. The detailed configuration is typically managed by a customer administrator or above using the Configuration Templates specified in Microsoft Quick Add Groups.

The VOSS Automate user interface will disable the option of adding Microsoft Lync / Skype for Business if the user already has Microsoft Lync / Skype for Business.

Microsoft Quick Add Subscriber Workflow

The workflow supports adding the following Microsoft UC services:

If the required AD User is not in the dropdown list:

Create a user in Microsoft Active Directory

If the Skype for Business check box is selected:

Enable a user in Microsoft Lync or Skype for Business
Grant the user each of the applicable policies.
Set the Lync / Skype for Business user settings according to the user input and selected telephony options.

If the Voicemail check box is selected:

Create a mailbox for the user in Microsoft Exchange using the email address of the AD user and with options specified in the Microsoft Exchange Mailbox template in the Microsoft Defaults / Microsoft Quick Add Group.
Enable the mailbox of the user for Unified Messaging using the extension specified.

If the Office 365 check box is checked:

Below see the workflow for provisioning online services.

NOTE: If the workflow is rolled back for whatever reason and the creation of a Mailbox is reversed by disabling the mailbox then it has the effect of the AD user's email address being blanked out, which is comes from disabling the mailbox.

Microsoft Quick Add Subscriber Online

The following conditions apply when adding services to a Subscriber enabled for MS Online Services:

If the Subscriber has Voicemail or Skype for business the following options will be disabled : * Voicemail * SFB Enabled

If the Subscriber does not have Voicemail and/or Skype for Business you can choose to enable the subscriber by just checking the voicemail and/or SfB Enable check boxes. This will enable the Subscriber with on-prem services.

If the voicemail checkbox is checked and the Online Mailbox/Voicemail checkbox is checked, the Subscriber will be provisioned for online mailbox and Ummailbox services.

If the SfB Enabled checkbox and the Online Skype for Business checkbox is checked the Skype for Business service will be provisioned online.

NOTE: The Microsoft Quick Add Group selected needs to contain the MS Online Licenses required for the options selected.

Microsoft Hybrid 2-stage provisioning

In the case where Active Directory is synchronized with MS online (i.e. a Hybrid deployment) the provisioning of online service can only be completed once ADFS Dir Sync has been completed. When a Quick Add Subscriber operation is performed before a new AD user has been synchronized with MS Online, VOSS will persist the MS Online Provisioning request. Outstanding online provisioning requests can be seen in the "Services Allocated" tab of Subscribers.

A scheduled task is provided as part of sample templates that periodically synchronizes VOSS with MS Online Users. The scheduled task processes any outstanding MS Online Provisioning requests and deletes them once completed.

Microsoft Quick Add Subscriber Online Provisioning Workflow

The workflow supports adding the following Microsoft Online Services in a hybrid deployment:

If the Online Skype for Business check box is selected:

Enable a user in Microsoft Lync or Skype for Business (on premises)
Persist a MS Online Provisioning request (to be processed as specified below).

Processing Online Provisioning Requests:

Synchronize MS Online Users into VOSS (and move them to the site where the AD user exists).
If the MS Online User has been dir synced to MS online then modify the MS online user as follows:
- Set the usage location to the usage location configured in the Quick Add Group or (if not specified in the Quick Add Group) the MS Defaults.
- License the user according to the licenses specified in the Quick Add Group.
If the Online Skype for Business option had been checked when doing Quick Add Subscriber then:
- Move the on-prem Skype for Business user online.
- Update the Skype for business online user properties (which will grant the policies configured in the Skype for Business template of the Quick Add Group).
- Set the Lync / Skype for Business user settings according to the user input and selected telephony options.
If the Online Mailbox/Voicemail option had been checked when doing Quick Add Subscriber then:
- Add an online Exchange Mailbox according the configuration template in the Quick Add Group.
- Enable the Exchange Mailbox for Unified Messaging (UM) according the configuration template in the Quick Add Group.
Update VOSS view of the data in on Active Directory user and the Skype for Business Online and Onprem users, since these would have been updated with execution of above steps.
