Resource configuration parameters

• Description: it can be usefull to insert there the email address of the user account associated to this net.Desktop account
• Popup Escaux UCS contact on incoming call: if set to yes, the net.Desktop will perform a reverse lookup in the Escaux UCS contacts database and display the caller's number and name automatically on each new incoming call
• Application tabs: this allows the administrator to define default web pages to be visible to the users (for example the corporate intranet). Use a URL format, beginning with http:// or https://.
• Short name configuration: you can configure how the search engine should interpret your search requests ( currently not implemented)
  • first name prefix length : please enter the number of letters that will be interpreted as being part of the first name
  • last name prefix length : please enter the number of letters that will be interpreted as being part of the last name
  • separator : define the separator character between the first and last name prefix
  • Example : if you want to search Mickey Mouse by entering "mic mo", please use the following parameters :
    • Short name: first name prefix length : 3
    • Short name: last name prefix length : 2
    • Short name: separator : single space
• Dial Parameters - Prefixes:
  • Pabx: enter the prefix to make a national call (usually 0)
  • International : enter the prefix to make an international call (usually 00)
  • Country code : the country code (32 = Belgium, 33 = France, ...)
  • National: enter the prefix used to dial a number in the same country as you are dialing (e.g. 0 = Belgium, N/A = Luxembourg).

For example, to dial a number in Luxembourg from Belgium we would use 0 00 352 4xxxx. A full international number is the pabx prefix (0) + international prefix (00) + country code (352) + area code + phone number. Dialing the same number from Luxembourg, the number would be 0 4xxxx. Which is composed of the pabx prefix (0) + national prefix (N/A) + area code + phone number.

Note: In order to parse well any phone number write it, always, like this (specially those coming from Outlook data source): "+countrycode areacode phonenumber", special characters are permitted but always add a '+' sign preceding the country code (e.g. +32 2xxxxxxx is the same as +322xxxxxxx and +32 2xxx-xxxx, +352 4xx xx is the same as +3524xx.xx and +352/4xx-xx).

Avoid adding the national prefix in your phone number (e.g. +44(0)20 xxxx xxxx will be wrong parsed, +44 20 xxxx xxxx is correct).
