Calendar-Based Call-Routing Rules Do Not Work
If a user has set up calendar-based call routing rules, and the rules are not working properly, you might
have an incorrect messaging configuration, or the user meeting information might not yet be
synchronized (thus making it unavailable for Personal Assistant).
Check the messaging configuration (System > Messaging) to ensure that the correct calendar server
name and calendar mailbox name are configured. If you are using Cisco Unity with Microsoft Exchange,
use “Unity Messaging” in the Calendar Mailbox Name field, unless the account uses a different name.
If you are using Exchange without Cisco Unity, use the first and last name of the administrator account
on the Exchange server. See the “Messaging Configuration” section on page A-10 for more information
and for detailed instructions.
