  • Hi Paula. 

    No sadly as of yet it is not possible to assign cce number or Even full hybrid to Online Call Queue. But you can use a servicenumber for the Queue or AA and make a forward in your sbc.

    Kind Regards Thomas 

  • Thomas Binder can you clarify if these features are accessible for all Cloud PBX users (not just those with E3 or E5 licenses?).

     

    We're seeing (and hoping to use!) Call Queues and Auto Addendants with the Skype for Business [Plan 2] + Cloud PBX license -- but a couple pages say these features are only for E3 and E5 users.

  • Thomas Binder The individual feature pages say E3 or E5 is required (e.g. Queues and Attendants both say "Your organization must have (at a minimum) an Enterprise E3 ...").

     

    But no other features seem to be limited to E3 or E5 (you just need a Cloud PBX License), and:

     

    - The feature table says Queue and Attendant are only included with E5 (with the included PBX license) and makes no mention of them being limited to E3+E5

     

     

    - The Cloud PBX page lists these as features

     

    - Both the Queue and Attendant training videos say just Cloud PBX License

     

    -  I don't have an E3 or E5 license (just Microsoft 365 Business w/ Skype for Business (Plan 2) + Cloud PBX license) and I am seeing & using Call Queues and Auto Attendants.

    The Auto Attendant PowerPoint indicates "Voicemail" as one of the destination targets (slide 33). This is something we need but do not see it as an option when setting up an auto attendant via the Skype for Business admin portal. Can this be done via PowerShell or is it still not available?

  • Hi Thomas

     

    Whats the latest - on CCE and Call queue compatibility, it we have several offices around thw world, and some offices utilize CCE some run PSTN Main Numbers (Service number assigned to Call queue) , will the Office that run PSTN Calling be able to utilize Call queue like that - whiule others are on CCE  ?

     

    Or is it alerady so that even the CCE offices can use Call queues ?

    Kindes regards
