UCP Settings

The User Control Panel (UCP) is where an user can login and manage the system settings that affect their extension (and if they have permission, the settings of other extensions).

These settings include the Ability to Listen/Download Recorded Calls, View Call History, Manage Voicemail, Call Forwarding, Call Waiting, and many others.

You can access the UCP by going to the web address (URL) of your company's phone system.

Example:  https://MYCOMPANY.jjcom.com 

MYCOMPANY, would be replaced with a word specific to your company.

If you are unsure of your company's URL please see your manager/supervisor or create a support ticket. We are always ready to help.

Overview

This article explains the options found when the settings link (circled in red) is clicked on after logging in.  If you do not know your username or password for the UCP please create a support ticket and we will reset and send you your credentials.

The interface is broken down into separate sections below.
