Directories accessible from the applications include: corporate directories, personal contacts and LDAP directories. Business Class Telephony The Communication Organizer Server features an interface for applications in providing business class telephony. Activity Management When an incoming communication request is received, user preferences assist the communication system in finding the appropriate user. Activity, also known as presence status, refers to what the user is doing at the time working, attending a meeting, eating lunch, etc. Preference determines how communications (voice, instant messaging or e-mail) are established for each activity type. The user can set up multiple find-me orders with each order defining the devices to call, the duration of ring signals, whether call screening will be activated, etc. Messages can be sent via IM from Communication Organizer, as text messages to mobile phones or as e- mail. Activity and preference information is displayed on the clients within Communication Organizer. An activity for a user can be set in a number of ways from Personal Assistant-PC, Personal Assistant-Web, Operator Assistant, scheduled in Outlook or Notes, with the team function (monitor feature), and with the Mobile Location Server. Instant Messages Text-based instant messaging is available and features multiple parties (chat), predefined messages and format conversion as needed (PC, SMS, e-mail). Contact Lists Users create lists of people users frequently contact. A contact list shows the current activity and the preferred method of communication for each person on a list.
Server-Based Exchange/Domino Integration Add-ins are used to integrate with Exchange and Domino. One function allows users to associate activities in calendar appointments. And with the Communication Organizer toolbar, users can: Launch Personal Assistant-PC. View online statuses of e-mail senders. Start IM sessions. Reply and forward e-mails via IM. Initiate calls to e-mail senders. Display contact lists. Server-Based Call Log The call log is shared between the Personal Assistant-PC and Personal Assistant-Web applications. The calls can be sorted with a single mouse click. Security Directory Access: For directory update requests, the Communication Organizer Directory API requires the client applications to supply a valid time-based security token. Sensitive data is encrypted. Network Transport: Both SSL and IPSec can be enabled. Interfaces Ericsson Open Application Server: An interface for client applications that relays third-party call control requests and receives extension statuses from the MX-ONE Telephony System.

VSI: Provides interface for sending and receiving VIM (Message Diversion) requests with MX-ONE Messaging.
