Phone Button Templates
Phone button templates let you assign speed dials and call-handling features to programmable buttons.
Call-handling features that can be assigned to buttons include Answer, Mobility, and All Calls.
Ideally, you modify templates before you register phones on the network. In this way, you can access customized
phone button template options from Cisco Unified Communications Manager during registration.
The default Cisco Unified IP Phone 9971 template that ships with the phone uses buttons 1 and 2 for lines.
Note
Modify Phone Template
The Cisco Unified Communications Manager Device Settings page contains the phone template.

Phone Button Template for All Calls
We recommend that you provision an
All Calls
button for users with multiple shared lines. When you configure
an
All Calls
button on the phone, you enable the users to do the following:
•
Press
All Calls
to display a consolidated list of current calls from all lines on the phone.
•
Press
All Calls
under Call History to displays a list of all missed calls from all lines on the phone.
