upgrading or activating new equipment of differing technology. It also suggests ways that the contacts can be easily reassigned via EPB.

Notification of incompatible equipment (EUP/AE)—If the user is processing an EUP or AE on a line that currently has a Push to Talk subscription, he or she will be prompted to select new compatible equipment and continue with the Push to Talk subscription. The features will not auto-add since they are not the same (3G PTT vs. 4G LTE PTT+).

Sub lists—New with this version. Allows the user to preselect a set of contacts (25 maximum) and name the group. That set of contacts can be then assigned to many contacts. Then, when the sub list is modified in the future (either via additions or deletions), all of those that have the sub list assigned to them will be updated via single transaction. Note: Only 4G LTE phones can be assigned sub lists, but 3G phones may be a member of a sub lists.

Templates—Sub lists and groups have now been added to templates. This allows users a great way to keep all assignment requirements for a division/group within an organization all in one template. This is a great way for users to have templates available for easy assignment when new Push to Talk phones are added or upgraded. Note: Applying a template is a snapshot in time. They will not dynamically update phones with changes made after an application.

3G PTT and 4G LTE PTT+ contact management support—Allows organizations with both 3G Push to Talk (PTT) and 4G LTE Push to Talk Plus (PPT+) phones to manage them in one place.

Talker Group Priority—Talker Priority is a new feature of 4G LTE PTT+ groups. This new feature allows any members with the priority of Supervisor to “take the floor” of a group call. This can be set on the Group Detail page of any 4G LTE PTT+ group. Note: A group can only be 4G LTE if all internal contacts have a 4G LTE PTT+ phone.

Structures—Displayed on the left (if the profile has set up a structure; it will not be seen otherwise). This allows the user to view Push to Talk phones as they relate to the structure of their organization. Clicking on any of the folders will show the Push to Talk phones that roll up to it. To return to seeing all Push to Talk phones that roll up to your organization and any external contacts you may have, click on Return to All Contacts.

View—Change the view of the contacts you’re reviewing at any point by clicking All, 3G, 4G or External. It’s a quick/easy way to narrow down the Push to Talk contacts to what you want to work with at any given point.

All Contacts ACTION: Create Group—Allows the user to create a new group comprised of selected contacts. See Example 8.

All Contacts ACTION: Apply/Update Template—Allows the user to apply and/or update a template in one transaction. Templates can consist of contacts, groups and sub lists. Multiple templates may be created to easily assign contacts, groups and sub lists in one easy transaction.

Application of templates will be invaluable for large organizations upgrading to 4G LTE PTT+. When upgrading from 3G PTT to 4G LTE PTT+, all contacts on the handset are reset. Administrators can easily apply a prebuilt template after the upgrade to re-assign all of the needed contacts/groups and sub lists to the 4G LTE PTT+ phone.

Note: Sub lists are a 4G LTE PTT+–only functionality. Any template with sub lists that is assigned to a 3G phone will result in only the contacts and groups within the template being assigned to said phone. The sub lists will be ignored. See Example 9.

All Contacts ACTION: Assign/Update Sub List—Gives the ability for the administrator to assign and/or update an existing sub list. As opposed to a template (one-time assignment, no dynamic connection for future updates), a sub list automatically updates all phones to which it is assigned whenever the membership of a given sub list is modified. This 4G LTE PTT+–only functionality is VERY powerful and will cut down administrator’s time/effort within the portal to assure that all phones are correctly assigned their contacts. See Example 10.

All Contacts ACTION: Create Template—Allows the administrator to create a template consisting of contacts, groups and sub lists. A template can contain any or all of these items. Groups and sub lists are limited to five each per template for performance reasons. See Example 11.
