Changing Presence Status
You can assign a presence status to control whether you want people to contact you or not. By default, your status is based on your Microsoft Teams server.
● | After n minutes (configured in the Teams server by your administrator), presence status automatically changes to ‘Inactive’. |
● | n minutes after this (also configured in the Teams server by your administrator), presence status automatically changes to ‘Away’; all calls are then automatically forwarded to the Response Group Service (RGS) if it is configured. |
➢ | To change presence status: |
1. | In the home screen, select ![]() |
2. | Select the current status displayed and from the drop-down list of statuses then displayed, select the status to change to. Use this table as reference. |
