Cisco Jabber - Dialling from Microsoft Outlook

The way you can call a contact from Outlook depends on the way you are viewing your contact. Both options are listed below:

Dialling from Individual View

The individual view has either the telephone symbol or the "three dots" which you can select.

Telepfone symbol:

  • If there is only one phone number associated with the contact, the system will dial it as soon as the symbol is clicked.
  • Should there be multiple numbers, the small triangle next to the telephone symbol will allow you to select the desired number.

3-Dots:

  • Clicking on the three dots opens a menu with multiple options, including the option to call the contact.
  • All numbers associated with the contact will be listed separately 

C,

Dial from the Views "Business Card" / "Card" / "Telephone" / "List"

In these other views the contact can be called via Right click --> Call --> Number.
