UC – Contacts and Phone Directory

There are two groups of contacts accessible to users:

• User specific contacts that are entered and visible for just one user:  These can be entered by the user in their user portal.  You are also able to edit and remove the shared contacts.  (The edits are only visible to the user.  Deleted contacts are removed from the shared contacts).
• Shared contacts accessible to all users in your system:  These can be entered by your office system administrator.

You will be able to see the combined list of specific and shared contacts in the Directory on your deskphone (“Remote Phone Book”), and in the ReachUC App contacts.

Dialing from the Phone Directory

Your Yealink phone will automatically start searching the directory when you start dialing.  It will search the directory and call history by name and number.

For example, if you enter 23 (ABC-DEF on the keypad),  the phone will pull up matching entries.  For example, would display any numbers starting with or containing 23, as well as names containing AD, BE, CE.  You can then use the arrow keys to find the correct entry.
