Enterprise
• TT3331916 Enhancement – Provide ability to “join call” function on calls arriving from Finesse Implemented support for shared line calls.
• TT3331927 Enhancement – Need ability to edit Note Field. In order to use this feature the External Directory Service and VPConsole versions must match.
• TT3332000 Enhancement – Add support for InformaCast Mobile to allow Consoles to send Text Messages to devices

Build 4.4.78.21
Enterprise
• TT3331762 Fix – Google Calendar Plugin - ID Generator installer not included in recent builds
• TT3331975 Fix – Callers are not being redirected when No Agents are available Regress bug fixed. There was an issue: ACD rule "if all agents busy" is applied to the parked call, thus causing unwanted redirection.
• TT3332018 Build .20 May have affected support of Custom Attributes in CSV files
• TT3332022 VPLicSrv Fix – Crash when licenses are removed
• TT3332020 VistaTDS Fix – Service has stopped running (4.4.78.20 testing). Following issues have the same cause and are fixed by single change in VistaTDS ACD module:
o TT3331803 VistaTDS Service has stopped running LAB testing 4.4.77.21
o TT3331994 4.4.78.18 Server became unavailable message seen several times in testing
• TT3331831 Enhancement – Add support for 10-digit numbers in CPS. See compatibility notes
• TT3332011 Enhancement – Make search fields name font adjustable

Compatibility Notes
-------------------
1. CPS MyExt, Ext, Caller and Line properties were changed to string. Scripts included with the consoles were not affected by this change, but scripts written in previous versions that specifically utilized these properties as a number and not as a string could be not working as intended.
2. For example:
a. Let's say cps.MyExt is 5020 and we want to make a call like this cps.MakeCall( cps.MyExt + 1 ). Before the change cps.MyExt + 1 would mean 5021 after this change the number it will try to call will be 50201.
b. If we would try cps.MakeCall( 1 + cps.MyExt ) before the change it would call 5021 after the change it will try to call 15020.

Build 4.4.78.20
Enterprise
• TT3331916 Enhancement – Need ability to join calls arriving from Finesse
- Applied additional modifications to the already implemented enhancement.
- An internal solution will be used for joining calls for devices (88xx series phones) where joining across lines is no longer support by those devices.
- NOTE: Additional enhancements for joining Finesse calls will be in .21
• TT3331976 Enhancement - Provide method for checking how many times a call that has been AutoParked loops (VistaPoint ACD Module)
• TT3332006 Enhancement - Finesse Panel Failover using Primary/Secondary tags. Description:
o Url format in WebWiggets and WebView configuration supports tagged and alternative addresses.
o Tags and alternatives are written between braces in following formats:
o {item}
o {item1,item2}
o where item is any text except '{', '}' and ',' possibly containing tags:
 Server - follows currently connected VistaTDS server (primary or secondary)
 PrimaryServer - currently configured VistaTDS primary server
 BackupServer - currently configured VistaTDS backup server
Note: item2 is used when connection to the item1 is lost or item1 has incorrect name. This works both ways from item1 to item2 and vice versa

o All tags are case insensitive.
o There can be only one variable part '{xxx}' in url
o Variable part may contain more than just ip address or server name.
o Examples:
o http://{Server}:8008/agentStatusWidget
o http://{Server,10.10.1.1}:8008/agentStatusWidget
o http://{10.10.1.1,VistaPoint2}:8008/agentStatusWidget

o Entered busy code will be visible for use by agents
o There are two default busy codes:
 id_not_answering (if agent not answering)

o System->Service parameters->Server(Choose)->Service(Cisco CallManager)->Join Across Lines Policy-> should be set to ON
o Device specific settings may also need to be changed.
NOTE. Not all devices support Join across lines feature. Refer to Cisco documentation for device compatibility.
This update only requires that the CiscoSIM be updated as the older consoles will be able to join calls. However in the older consoles, the “Remove” (from conference) button may not work properly for such calls, so it is recommended to update Consoles as soon as possible
KNOWN ISSUE. If "Join call" is used on calls that are from two secondary lines, there may be an extra call with line showing as a conference member.

• TT3331844 VPConsole misses first entry of multi-page ExternalDirectory service responses
• TT3331840 ExtDir VPConsole freezing during large directory refresh (100K entries)
Optimizations:
• Initial optimization: eliminate multiple calls to the same function inside loop and unnecessary copying of memory objects. Tab switch time reduced to ~10 seconds form 20-30 seconds)
• use binary format for ExteDir cache (loads/saves 10 times faster)Tab switch time reduced to ~8 seconds
• move ExtDir cache saving to separate (non-GUI) thread Tab switch time reduced to ~5-6 seconds
• void duplicate operations (Sort, MakeVisibleLst) Tab switch time reduced to ~2.5 second
• Pre-load telephone type strings instead of computing each time. Time for ordering by telephone type reduced

NOTE. Format of external directory cache file (external_directory.cache) has changed. When VPConsole with this update runs for the first time old saved cache file cannot be used, so external directory tabs will be empty until refreshed from server. Cache is saved in new format after refresh and subsequent runs will load cache correctly.

Agent Greeting Enhancements (TT3331808)
--------------------------------------
• TT3331779 – Fix: Agent Greeting not working with VistaPoint ACD AutoParked Calls. Additional configuration options were added to the agent greeting dialog.

• Agent Greetings are separated into three (3) types:
o Personal Greeting - Greeting is configured based on dialed number (DID) and redirected from fields. It is played when a call for the agent matches the specified fields.
o Personal Direct Greeting - Greeting is played when the agent's number was dialed by the caller.
o Global Greeting - Played when no other greeting is applicable based on configuration.
• TT3331807 – Enhancement: Ability to record voice through Media Service. An additional button, named "Record greeting,” was added to the "Media" toolbar. When clicked, allows the user to specify the name of a recording and either start recording a greeting with the specified name or listen to the greeting.
o Buttons are provided for both recording a greeting and playing it back.
o Recording or playback state is specified inside the dialog during selected procedure.
o If a recording name matches an existing one - recording will not be available.
o In this case a "Delete" button is provided to erase a greeting if it is no longer needed.
o Both recording and playback procedures can be stopped by either using the provided buttons or manually dropping the call on the phone.
• TT3331779 and TT3331807 – Enhancement: Additional Media Service configuration options. Several options were added to the "Agent Greeting" section inside the Configurator.
o Ability to restrict greeting playback to ACD Route-Points.
 If option is selected, no greeting will be played unless configured for use with ACD Route-Point numbers. This means that "Personal Direct Greeting" and "Global Greeting" types will never be used, even when configured.
o The "Voice recorder" section was added to the Media Service properties. Similar to "Agent Greeting,” it is required to specify which CTI devices will be used for both recording and playback.
• TT3331813 – Fix: Audible crackling during agent greeting eliminated any undesirable noise during "Agent Greeting" playback.
• #8877 Media Service crashes on PCE message.

Other changes
Messages on the PCE were processed in an incorrect way, which could have led to future processing issues. This has been fixed to process messages the same way as CiscoSIM. NOTE: Due to this change, the updated Media Service cannot be used with previous versions of VistaTDS.

#8970 Occasionally, VistaTDS.log file is created in Windows folder.
• TT3331764 Fix: The InformaCast plugin is not working in VistaPoint. Error logging, and use RecipientGroupServiceV1 endpoint.
• TT3330984 Fix: Enterprise Directory - LdapAdmin.asp is omitting a couple of tables necessary to complete configuration. Log error if ODBC connection fails.
• #8930 Fix: Crash in number-translation dialog when regex pattern is invalid.
• #8915 Fix: AutoAnswer function does not reset its status after missed call.
• TT3331738 Change: Need to have CUCM option for 12X in SIM configuration.
• TT3331818 Enhancement - Need ability to send DTMF from Console to support alphanumeric pagers.
• #8892 Change: ExtDir - reduce logging (follow logging guidelines).
• #8975 Fix possible crash of VPConsole when removing device comments:
Client side bug (Possible crash of console when VistaTDS/PCE sends uninitialized member vars)). Server side bug (VistaTDS/PCE sends uninitialized member vars)).

WebConsole 4.4.78
Issue when Finesse agent does not logout after WebConsole exit.
Fix which should logout Finesse agent during WebConsole close operations already was added in WebConsole v4.4.77.23. We also added new minor changes related with Finesse widget logoff operation in updated WebConsole v4.4.78.0.
Issue when Finesse agent does not work after phone reset.
We tested scenario when reset phone using CUCM administration GUI. In result of phone reset widget showed “Not Ready” agent status. After that we tried to set phone to ready status and it was successfully changed. It is possible that issue was fixed in version 4.4.77.23. That version had few changes related with agent status handling.
In case customer still reproduces issue with updated WebConsole v4.4.78.0 then we need browser network log (HAR) when user resets phone and after that fails to change agent state to “Ready.”

Build 4.4.77.23
• TT3331683 Fix: Jabber plugin migrated to Jabber SDK v11.8.2. Implementation. Notes: Jabber plugin of WebConsole 4.4.77.23 supports only Chrome browser. Firefox browser to be supported at a later date.

Build 4.4.77.13
• TT3331709 Enhancement: Cells forwarded to internal numbers, should display the name along with forwarded ext. info inside the BLF Cell [Implemented in Console Companion]

Build_4.4.77.12
• T3331705 Enhancement - Arrow Keys must allow user to move up and down inside Ext Dir
• TT3331611 Enhancement - Add ability to auto clear search fields after call transfer using right-click inside directory.
• TT3331693 Console Companion, External Directory. Custom attributes data no longer appearing.
• TT3330079 Personal group name pre-appended "~" reduces efficiency of call processing. Partial: Except Outlook. After update VPConsole will no longer appends or removes "~" automatically, instead it will allow to do this manually.
So, if user already has local groups, then these groups will look like before (with ~).
o If user edits local BLF group then the ~ will be present as regular character, and can be removed or added manually.
o If user creates new groups the ~ will not be added.
o To avoid possible name conflict with global groups, VPConsole adds space to the end of local group name. Global groups coming from CUCM does not have space at the end (CUCM strips spaces), however with older consoles it was possible to enter space at the end.
o If this is the case (global group name contains one space at the end, and matches local group's name) then only global group will be shown. To see local group you need to rename global group (BLFAdmin) without spaces at the end.
o New version of BLFAdmin won't allow spaces at the end of group name.

Known issues
1. DB export/import tool (VPDBExchange.exe) and DB export/import option in VPConfigurator may fail to import user password into new database.
Reasons:
1. Password hashes are converted to binary data and stored in SQL server's NVARCHAR field.
2. Binary data is not compatible with default SQL Server's UNICODE/ANSI translation rules. This depends on actual characters used in password.
3. Database access library that was used for this tool losses some binary characters when reading and/or writing binary data.
