Scope:
The document will go over adding new users to an enterprise TeamMate Connector
Requirements
- Access to either the Enterprise or Reseller Provisioning Portal
Adding a User
- 1
Log into the Enterprise Provisioning Portal using the tenant's Global Administrator O365 user.
- 2
In the main menu, navigate to Users.

- 3
Select SET UP PBX USER in the upper right hand corner.
- 4
For the user details, enter in the following info:
- 1PBX Locations: The name of the configured PBX (typically PBX; usually only one option in the dropdown)
- 2Available Voice Routes: Either US East 2 or US West, depending on the client's location
- 3Teams User: the email address/ username associated with the user you're trying to add
- Note: this user needs to be assigned the correct licensure or they will not show in the dropdown
- 4SIP User: The user's portal extension (cannot already be assigned to another user)
- 5Phone Number: In this field, type in 1<Ext>, and select it once typed. For example, if the user's extension is 1000, you would type in 11000 and select that as the phone number. The system will automatically add a + to the beginning of the number.
- 6Use Voicemail in Teams: Leaving this unchecked will prevent calls from reaching the user's PBX voicemail and can also cause issues with call queue routing.
- 7Caller Name Policy: Set to Transparent
- 8Caller ID on Forwarded Calls: Set to User's Caller ID
- 9Assign Default Dial Plan Policy: Check the box
- 10User Devices: Click Add New Device and then add the following information:
- SIP Authentication ID: "tm" is our recommendation. However, any suffix, or lack thereof, may be used for teammate.
- Note: You will need to create the tm extension handle on the user/extension in question beforehand. Once this has been done, you will see the (extension)tm extension handle below. You can do this by using this document.
- Note: Please remember to leave all fields blank when creating the new extension, you will only need to add an emergency address to create the TM extension.
- Press the SELECT button next to the (extension)tm added device
- SIP Authentication ID: "tm" is our recommendation. However, any suffix, or lack thereof, may be used for teammate.
- 11Click Save User.
- 12Navigate back to the Dashboard from the Main Menu.
- 13Under Enterprise Admin Action Items, you may see an option to Sync your Teams users. If this option is present, click Sync Teams Users. Otherwise, the user was synced automatically and you may proceed to the next step.

- 14From the main menu, navigate back to Users, locate the user(s) you just added, click the three dots next to the user under the Action tab, and click Enable Calling if this option is available. If it says Disable Calling, this was enabled automatically and you can skip this step.

Troubleshooting a 365 User Not Syncing

- 2Ensure the User is in the correct Group for syncing.
