myPortal @work is an Microsoft Windows and Apple MAC OS based Telephony and UC client for OpenScape Business that can be connected either to the UC Smart or UC Suite service. It provides WebRTC based telephony and a common user interface for UC features. Depending on the UC service operation mode and the configured features within OpenScape Business the scope of available features varies slightly.

myPortal @work SW is part of OpenScape Business SW and bound to the SW version of the communication platform.

The following description refers to OpenScape Business V2R7. Deviations within the feature set may occur for previous or subsequent versions of OpenScape Business.


Overview

myPortal @work provides a common user interface for UC features. Depending on the UC service operation mode and the configured features within OpenScape Business the scope of available features varies slightly.
myPortal @work offers am embedded Voice over IP telephony client. If the VoIP option is activated voice call related features of the myPortal @work client use the VoIP function.
myPortal@work in UC Smart mode can be used instead of an existing myPortal Smart Desktop. Existing UC-Smart settings are automatically incorporated into myPortal @work after its installation. The existing UC Smart user license can also be used with myPortal @work.
myPortal @work in UC Suite Mode can be used in combination with existing myPortal for Desktop/Outlook Client (CTI, Favorites and Conversations). The existing UC Suite user license can also be used with myPortal @work.

Highlights of myPortal @work:

  • New conversation oriented graphical user interface with:
    • Flexible/scalable User Interface with different scaled views
    • Left or Right docking –fitted to customer needs
    • Minimize to tray function
    • Tray pop up on incoming / outgoing calls
    • Combined input field for search & dial function
    • Conversations view for contacts
    • Facilitated conference management
    • Click to Dial via Hotkey
    • Telephony Hyperlink Services such as tel: and callto:
  • Integrated WebRTC based VoIP client (incl. device@home support)
  • Integrated Desktop Dialing function


myPortal @work

The myPortal @ work user interface consists out of several display elements that can be expanded and collapsed in order to offer four different views to the user:

  • Details View
  • List View
  • Menu View
  • Mini View

The user can switch between the views at any time according to his requirements. Presence status, as well as information about missed calls and new voice messages is visible in every view except Mini View.
For all views except the Mini View the following applies:

  • The client can be positioned anywhere on the Desktop. It can be set always on top,
  • Tooltips display more information on objects of the graphical user interface such as icons, input fields or buttons, for example. The appropriate tool tip appears if the mouse pointer is hovered over an element for a brief period of time.
  • For calls, the appropriate call information and buttons are displayed in screen pops or in the workspace of the Conversations, if that view is currently active.
  • If myPortal @work has no connection to the communication system, the current screen will be greyed out and an information text is displayed. In this case you can still reach the menu to exit the application and to use the logout mode to select another user profile on login screen.


A Pop-up window offers a convenient way to respond to calls with a single click, beneath other call control elements in the client GUI. Phone number, name and image of the caller are displayed together with the call control buttons, depending on the call status

  • SPE configuration in networking scenarios with VoIP is not yet supported. Please check the technical release notes for information about behaviour in future versions.
  • call waiting rejection flag is not yet supported. Please check the technical release notes for information about behaviour in future versions.
