Resolution

Note: This process will need to be completed for the phone with the BLF keys, and for the extension the user is unable to answer. This process will delete the user's voicemail. Be sure to archive all voicemails prior to applying the resolution.

  2. Deactivate the phone. Select Save.
  3. Remove the license. Select Save.
  4. Deactivate the user.
  5. Delete User. Select Save.
  6. Add the user and the user's information (First, Last name, email address, username). Select Save.
  7. Add the desired license.
  8. Add phone information such as DID, Ext#, then click Save.
  9. Add the phone device, model.
  10. Select Activate using MAC ID.
  11. Reboot phone. After the phone has fully rebooted, check the status on the BLF phone to see if the refreshed user icon is online.
  12. Place a test call to the affected extension and try to pick up the call from the BLF assigned pickup phone.
