Directory Hierarchy Configuration

The Directory Hierarchy Configuration page opens when you select System > Directory Hierarchy.

Table A-6describes the fields on the Directory Hierarchy Configuration page. Use the Directory Hierarchy Configuration page to create locations and departments that a user can use to narrow a dial-by-name directory search. For example, if you create a location called NewYork, users can tell Personal Assistant to search the NewYork location for Roger Smith. This can help callers reach the correct party when dialing a person who has a common name.

You add a node by entering the information for a node and clicking Save. The new node is added to the list of nodes in the hierarchy. The list includes the number of matches for the node in the corporate directory.

You can also view or change a node by clicking on the node in the list. Personal Assistant opens the Update Hierarchy Node page, which shows the attributes of the node (as defined in this table). To change a node, change the applicable settings, and click Update. Note that you cannot change the name or type of the node.

To delete a node, click the Delete icon on the same line as the node.
