If activated, you can change the presence state for Skype for Business in the CTI Data Connector SoftPhone. Changing the presence state in Skype for Business however does have no effect on the CTI Data Connector SoftPhone.

In case Call Wrap-Up time in seconds is configured, the status in Skype for Business is changed instantly after the call to Do Not Disturb. This ensures that the user will get no inbound call. Once the defined number of seconds is over, the presence state goes automatically back to Ready for Calls.

Call Wrap-Up time is not activated for

•phone calls with duration of 0 seconds (ring only)

•internal calls

If you dial with the CTI Data Connector SoftPhone the status is always set to Ready for Calls in case it is on Do Not Disturb.

Skype for Business needs special codes, which have to be configured as Reason Codes. There is a pre-configured Call Center Adapter for Skype for Business.

Find below the configuration for Skype for Business with the matching codes.
