Dear Swyx Users   

Swyx latest version, ‘SwyxWare 2011’ is now available. SwyxWare 2011 is designed to optimise business processes, improve availability and increase productivity. The new version boasts extended functionality such as rich presence, voice data encryption and HD sound quality for both audio and video telephony.

Today a short introduction in Rich Presence:

Colleagues can simply see via their SwyxIt! soft-phone whether someone is ‘away’, ‘busy’ or ‘on holiday’. By updating information on availability and contact preference in real-time, SwyxWare 2011 enables callers to understand how best to contact someone, for example via phone, email, instant messaging or mobile device.

 

Away     = Away
DND= Do Not Disturb
LoggedOff= Logged Off
Busy= Busy
Free= Available


So fare so good, but did you know that you can now also update your Speed Dial information automatically with your Outlook appointment subject?

Enabling this feature is really simple:

1. click on your status icon on the left lower corner of your SwyxIt! and select Properties
SetStatusSwyxItProperties

2. Enable Show my appointment subject as status text 
SetShowAppointmentSubjectStatusText

That is it ! Now any of your colleagues which have access to your calendar information via Outlook or Lotus Notes, can mouse over your SwyxIt! Speed Dial, and get your Subject Line of your active calendar appointment displayed.

Happy Swyxing and have a good weekend :- )

Re: SwyxWare 2011 - show appointment subject

Hi Mirjam,

this is a nice short introduction but I think the screenshot below "2. Enable Show my..." is wrong. I am sure you wanted to show the properties page.

Well spotted, I have now changed it to the correct screen-shot.

Re: SwyxWare 2011 - show appointment subject

Hi Mirjam,

it is even not required that your colleagues have access to your calendar information. It is YOUR local SwyxIt! that will check the content of YOUR own calendar through YOUR local Outlook. If checkbos is activated it will get the subject from the ongoing appointment and set it as your own status text.
While doing this is will also tell the presence manager inside SwyxServer about the end of the appointment, which will be taken as expire time for this status message. So even if you end your Outlook or SwyxIt! before the appointment is finished, the server will change back the status text to the prevois text as soon as the appointment ends.

Btw, if an appointment is flagged as private, we will also just show "Appointment: Private" as status text.

Best regards
Andreas
