Recent Communications

The Recent communication pane lists all voicemail messages you receive, and up to 50 received, initiated, or missed calls.

Calls that you make or answer using your desk phone only appear in the Recent communications list if Cisco Unified Personal Communicator is running. Calls you make appear only if phone mode is Desk Phone. Voice mail is always displayed. New voicemail messages appear in the list within one minute of being recorded.

If you log on from different computers, only calls that you make and receive while you are logged into a particular computer appear in the Recent communications list on that computer. Voice mail is always displayed.

You can filter the list by communication type or choose to view all. Icons and roll-over text also indicate the communication type. Other visual indicators help you determine the state of each communication:

•Items in italics are being processed and will be available momentarily.

•Unread voice mail items appear in bold text.

•Items that are deleted but not yet purged the deleted items list in strikethrough text.

Note If you are using Softphone Mode and you answer a call on your desk phone, the call may be displayed in your Recent communications list as a missed call.
