I would add, why not just bulk add jabber for everyone who is licensed for it and then include in your normal onboarding? Does someone care if it’s configured and not used?

Also, how come Option A doesn't mention the Jabber piece? Is that implied that you would come back around and add Jabber afterwards, like you would do in option B, post DN add?

Right now, we’re deploying Jabber only to those with phones/DNs. But, we need to start deploying Jabber for those individuals without phones/DNs. Our SOPs include using Quick Add feature. (Thanks a million time Brian Meade for the pointer). My choices so far, to address Jabber for new those without phones: (a) Create a fake hardware phone first. This has many benefits, namely, all SOPs remain the same. Hardware phone would be deleted afterwards. (b) Use Directory Number admin page to create/update a DN first, then use Quick Add page to assign DN to user accordingly and then click manage devices and follow remaining SOP steps. (c) create line templates and use those when creating new extensions under quick add. The issue with this is we have so many combinations, I’d need a lot of templates. I’m leaning towards (b), since it gives me the best of both worlds. Thoughts?
