Using My Room to IM/chat with multiple contacts

Using the Business Communicator Collaboration version, you can create a dedicated group chat room, called My Room, to IM/chat with anyone in your organization who has a Business Communicator Collaboration version.

 

Add your conference bridge to your Business Communicator credentials, so you and your My Room attendees can automatically call into your conference calls. Attendees who have the Business Communicator Collaboration version can use the click-to-dial feature (dialpad) to call your conference bridge.

To use My Room to IM/chat with multiple contacts:

  1. To open a My Room chat window, from the green presence banner, click the house icon.
My Room
  1. To invite and add a contact to a My Room chat, left-click on the contact, then drag the record into the bottom of the chat window. 

Note: Only people from your contacts can be added to a My Room chat. If you want to add a contact from the directory, you’ll need to save the person to your contacts first, and then add the contact into a My Room conversation.

The person is invited (and added if available) into the conversation in the My Room chat window. 

  1. Repeat these steps to add more contacts.
  1. To join a conference call in a My Room chat window with your My Room attendees, click the handset, phone, or video icon.

Note: You need to add your conference bridge, dial-in number, moderator, and PIN information to your Business Communicator profile to automatically enter you and the My Room attendees into your bridge.
