Custom status options
The feature is available in Softphone.Pro 3.1 and newer.
By default, there are 4 default status options in Softphone.Pro: Online, Offline, Away and Busy. In addition to the above default statuses you can define new ones like "Lunch", "Training", etc. Add [CustomStatus] section in SoftphonePro.ini configuration file for every new status option:
[CustomStatus%INDEX%] Name=%NAME% Status=%TYPE%
, where %INDEX% is status index, %NAME% is status name, %TYPE% is status type. You can use one of the following status types:
| Type | Description |
| Away | This status type indicates that the user is away from the computer and unable to take calls. |
| NA | This status type indicates that the user is on a call. When a user answers a call or makes an outbound call, the user's status is automatically changed to Busy. In terms of functionality the NA status type is similar to Busy default status. |
Every [CustomStatus%INDEX%] section must have unique numeric %INDEX% suffix starting with 1: [CustomStatus1], [CustomStatus2], [CustomStatus3], etc.
If you use provisioning server, edit the configuration file [USER].ini in configs directory, where [USER] is user login.
