Hi

Can UCA link the Company address book? I can't see any settings to link any contacts except for your own Outlook contacts.
 
Where would the company address book be stored? The UCA can retrieve names and numbers from the 3300 or I believe from Active Directory. Maybe that is what you would be referring to???

I'd tell you a UDP joke but I'm afraid you won't get it. TCP jokes are the best because you always get them.
 
Hi

I think i have the same trouble.
With UCA (it was different in YA) you cannot import any group or global contacts into the UCA client, only personal contacts that are in the default folder for Outlook. If you want to import anything other than the personal user contacts, you must copy them from the global address book (or any other address book hosted on the Exchange server or in a address book that is not the default user one) to the user's default personal address book, then sync..


 
The corporate addresses will be what's retrieved from the sync source setup in UCA. That can be the 3300 or it can use LDAP to get an address book from AD. Did not do it myself but have one customer linking to AD for their address book.

AD/LDAP Synchronizers tools in the UCA administrator interface (MSL) is used ONLY for sync UCA users accounts..

We will syncronize UCA Client with one or multiple public address book on a 2010 Exchange Server (so user can perform people search inside UCA client)

UCA client (5.0 SP1) is able to sync ONLY with personnal adresse book (user PIN).. i think..

So if anyone have a solution ?



 
Well all I can tell you is the site I am thinking of uses a corporate address book that is obtained from the AD server. We do not use the sync for creating user accounts. The customer uses the UCA based console rather then 5550 IP consoles and did not have to update the UCA directory and the corporate directory. I can't be 100% sure because as I said I didn't do the work but I believe we use the directory from AD. I will see if I can track down the guy who did the work so I can be sure.
