Page 15: System Overview
System Overview The messaging system simplifies the messaging process by storing communications in a universal mailbox. UM8000 provides the flexibility to manage voice, fax, and e-mail messages from any location. These topics introduce basic system concepts, explains the role of the system manager, describes how to log on to and log off the system, and how to navigate the Administration Console.
Page 16 System Manager Responsibilities System managers are responsible for the day-to-day management of the messaging system. They add and train new subscribers, operators, and other system managers, as well as answer questions about the system. Periodically, system managers might need to update greetings to reflect holidays or other circumstances. A system manager can change mailboxes and greetings using a phone or the Administration Console.
Page 17 The Administration Console is a Web-based interface used for most administration tasks. It can be accessed from the UNIVERGE UM8000 server or from a client computer that is connected to the same network as the UM8000 server. For more information about using the Administration Console, see Navigating the Administration Console.

Page 19 Assigning System IDs A system ID is a unique identification number that is used to identify a subscriber, guest, transaction box, voice detect box, or interview box. System IDs are numbers that callers dial to access subscriber extensions and mailboxes. System IDs are used to link boxes for advanced call routing and audio text.
Page 20 Understanding System and Personal IDs The messaging system listens for system IDs and personal IDs on a digit-by-digit basis. When a caller enters a system or personal ID, the system examines the first digit to see if it is a valid ID. If the first digit is not a valid ID, the system listens to the second digit and checks to see if the combination of the two digits is a valid ID.
Page 21 Internal IDs An internal ID is a special ID that cannot be entered using a phone keypad. To create an internal or hidden ID, use a $ (dollar sign) as the first character of the ID. The $ (dollar sign) cannot be entered using a phone keypad. Internal IDs are used to route callers to voice detect boxes, transaction boxes, or interview boxes and preventing callers from directly entering the voice detect box, transaction box, or interview box.
Page 22 Recording Voice Fields or Interview Prompts Use the Administration Console Media Control Tool to record voice fields and prompts. Voice fields contain names, greetings, or introductions. The length of a voice field recording appears on the buttons, in minutes:seconds as shown below.
Page 23 To record or rerecord a voice name or greeting on the Administration Console In the Administration Console click Subscribers > Subscribers > Profile or Subscribers > Subscribers > Greeting or another page that has the voice field for the name, greeting, or prompt. Click the voice field.
Page 24 Using a Phone to Change System Information System managers can change most system information using the Administration Console. However, system managers can also use a phone and the system manager conversation to change mailboxes, greetings, schedules, and operator settings. Use a phone and system manager log with the system manager personal ID and security code to hear the system manager conversation.
