Importance of Broadcast Message Administrator The users allowed to send and update broadcast messages can use the Broadcast Message Administrator to do the following tasks: • Record and send one or more broadcast messages. • Define when a system broadcast message becomes active and for how long. The date and time reflect the time zone for the user who sends the message. If a sender hangs up or is disconnected while creating a broadcast message but before sending it, Unity Connection deletes the recording. Note The users allowed to update broadcast messages can use the Broadcast Message Administrator to do the following tasks: • Review active messages. If there is more than one active message, the Broadcast Message Administrator presents them in order based on the start date and time, starting with the newest messages. • Change the end date and time for active messages. • Change or add to a recording for future messages. • Change the start date and time or the end date and time for future messages. (Note that the end date and time does not adjust automatically if senders change the start date and time but do not change the end date and time.) • Delete active and future messages. Changing Broadcast Message Administrator Defaults Default behavior for the Broadcast Message Administrator is controlled by settings on the System Settings > Advanced > Conversations page in Cisco Unity Connection Administration. Following are the changes you can make to the system defaults: • Retention Period: This indicates the time for which Unity Connection retains the expired broadcast messages on the server. By default, the .WAV file and any data associated with a message purges in 30 days. To change the retention period for expired broadcast messages, enter a number from one to 60 days. • Default Active Days: This indicates the number of days that a broadcast message remains active when the sender does not specify an end date and time. The default is 30 days. To change how long a message without an end date and time remains active, enter a number from zero (0) to 365 days. A value of zero (0) days means that messages that are sent without a specified end date and time remain active indefinitely.
