Mitel Version 5.7 SP1 Grouping device criteria by column headers, Making multiple changes, Changing the YourSite Explorer view

YourSite Explorer 77
Grouping device criteria by column headers
You can group devices by column heading in the grid view. For example, if you click the Site column heading
on the Employees window, you can group employees by site. Grouping enables you to quickly select like
devices and make changes to them simultaneously. For example, if you click the Media server column
heading on the Extensions window (to group the extensions by media server), you can then readily select the
extensions associated with a particular media server and change their attributes, such as licensing or failover
media server. See “Making multiple changes” on page77.
To group device criteria by column headers
1. Open the device with the criteria to be grouped.
2. Click Group by.
3. Select the method of grouping.
Making multiple changes
In one action, you can edit common information across multiple devices of the same type. If, for example, you
recently set up your system to be resilient, you must configure your employees as resilient. You assign
resiliency to multiple employees by selecting multiple employees and then selecting the This employee is
resilient check box.
You can change information that is common across multiple devices only. For example, you cannot change
Name and Reporting number across multiple employees because they are specific to each device item.
You can make multiple changes to
• Employees
• Trunk groups
• DNIS
Changing the YourSite Explorer view
You can select from three window orientations or views: horizontal, vertical, and data grid. The horizontal view
displays information in a horizontal layout. The vertical view displays information in a vertical layout.
The data grid view contains a table in which you can readily edit device attributes. Pressing the Tab key
enables you to move from column to column. When viewing a device group in grid view, you can associate
members within the same window.
When you close YourSite Explorer and then restart it, YourSite displays the view and device windows that
were open the last time you used YourSite Explorer.
To select a particular view
1. On the ribbon, click the View tab.
2. In YourSite Explorer, click YourSite.
3. Select Horizontal, Vertical, or Data grid.
