Toshiba Strata CS manual Personal status and your active settings, Changing your active settings

Personal status and your active settings___________________

When you select a personal status, its preferences are copied to your active settings. Your active settings are all the settings that, taken together, determine how Strata CS handles your incoming calls. They are:

n

Personal status

Where I Am (the phone that rings for your incoming calls)

Active greeting (the greeting played to callers who reach your voice mail)

Active routing list (the routing list that incoming calls follow)

Taking calls setting (whether your phone does or does not ring)

Changing your active settings

You can change your active settings in the following ways:

nChange each active setting individually by going to the appropriate view or dialog box. For example, you can set your active greeting in the Greetings view, your active routing list in the Routing Lists view, your Where I Am setting by forwarding your calls, and so forth.

nChange several active settings at once by selecting a personal status. For example, if your On Vacation personal status uses the “I’m on vacation” greeting and specifies that your phone does not ring, whenever you select the On Vacation status, “I’m on vacation” becomes the active greeting and your Taking calls setting is set to No.

nChange active settings directly by using the Active Settings dialog box (see the next section).

Each change you make to an active setting overrides the previous one.

Example: You select the personal status On Vacation, which makes the “I’m on vacation” greeting active. Then you open the Greetings view and make the “Standard” greeting active. The “Standard” greeting is now the active one, even though the On Vacation personal status is still in effect.

Changing your active settings directly

The Active Settings dialog box gives you quick access to all your active settings in one place. Changes you make in this dialog box become your new active settings, and remain active until something else changes them, for example, until you select a new personal status or change the active greeting in the Greetings view.

You can use the Active Settings dialog box in the following ways:
