Agenda • Telephone Coordinator Survey Results • AT&T Cellular Contract • New Telephone Services: • Recent Calls • Voicemail Notification • Outgoing Caller ID • Telephone Bill – PDF Tips & Tricks • Other Operational Topics • Questions and Answers
Telephone Coordinator Survey Question #1 • Would you prefer the detail provided for Local and Toll Free calls or just summary data?
Telephone Coordinator Survey Question #2 • Would you prefer a more condensed version of the bill or the more readable version currently provided?
Telephone Coordinator Survey Question #3 • Are you printing the new Pinnacle telephone bills?
Telephone Coordinator Survey Question #4 • Are you able to get all the data you need from the bills?
Telephone Coordinator Survey Question #5 • Is the Pinnacle online help and other online telephone support documentation available on the Service Desk website adequate?
Telephone Coordinator Survey Question #7Question 6 Skipped – Would you like Telephone Services Review • Do you use the online PDF telephone directory (NOTE: this is not the Portal directory)?
Telephone Coordinator Survey Question #8 • Do you print the online PDF telephone directory?
Telephone Coordinator Survey Conclusions • Keep the current level of details on bills • We are adding summary detail on the bill for subcode (Pinnacle) / account (PeopleSoft) • Information available appears to be adequate • PDF Directory use is roughly 50/50 – no strong argument for maintaining over the long term. Portal online directory should be able to meet all needs identified. • 1200+ Directory updates in the past year / 100 per month average
AT&T Cellular Contract • Contract signed • AT&T installing new antenna to improve campus coverage • Sign ups to begin at AT&T on-site visit first week of November • All purchases must be approved by telephone coordinator • You may pre-authorize individuals to sign up directly with AT&T during the on-site visit by completing the preauthorization form available on Service Desk website (see address on next slide) • Please send a copy of the completed form to the Service Desk and have the individual bring the original to the AT&T booth in November • Forward forms to Service Desk by October 28 or earlier to allow AT&T to be fully prepared in November.
AT&T Cellular Contract • Consider business needs prior to approving iPhones • 2 year contracts vs. no contract • Higher equipment costs • Higher monthly plan costs • Equipment, rate plan information & pre-authorization form will be available at: http://servicedesk.calpoly.edu/telephone_support/index.html • First few months billing may be summary charges in Pinnacle with associated AT&T paper bill until electronic file is available and tested • Longer term detailed charges/usage will be billed through Pinnacle
New Telephone Services • Recent Calls – 20 button phone only • Voicemail Notification • Outgoing Caller ID • For more information and forms to sign up for Voicemail Notification or Outgoing Caller ID visit the Service Desk website at: http://servicedesk.calpoly.edu/forms/telephone_forms.html • Above new services will be processed on a first come/first serve basis as time allows after primary baseline services (e.g. Adds/Moves/Changes & Cell phone processing)
Telephone Bills – PDF Tips & Tricks • How to search within PDF • How to print out individual sections of PDF
