If CPN Digits are used for a B2BUA call to a Response Group that contains Skype for Business users not handled by Genesys components, the CPN Digits are displayed in the ringing toast, but the CPN Digits are replaced in the Skype for Business conversation window with the conference service portal name after the call is answered.

If the SIP Server application used for Remote Recording is configured with ANI or DNIS in the recording file name, recording does not start. Here is an example of the problematic recording filename template:
recording-filename="$UUID$_$ANI$_$DNIS$_$DATE$_$TIME$_"
Workaround: Configure the application-level option recording-filename without using of ANI or DNIS in the recording file name template. For example:
recording-filename="$UUID$_$DATE$_$TIME$_"

If the application-level or DN-level option handle-direct-calls is changed dynamically during a live Workspace Desktop Edition (WDE) agent session, WDE receives no notification about the changed direct-call-processing mode for the DN.
Workaround: Restart Workspace Desktop Edition to receive the correct work mode.

In supervision scenarios where an observing supervisor executes a single-step transfer, T-Server sends EventPartyDeleted for the observer to the new destination after sending EventEstablished.

- The supervisor joins the conference with a caller and Agent1.
- Agent1 performs a two-step transfer to Agent2 that is not monitored by the supervisor.
- The supervisor remains in the conference after Agent1 completes the transfer and leaves the conference.

If both the primary and backup T-Servers unexpectedly exit at the same time, a call that was in treatment at the time of the exit might not continue correctly after the T-Servers restart.
ID: LYNC-1405 | Found In: 8.5.000.51 | Fixed In: 8.5.000.94 |
When a supervisor is engaged in an IM conversation with the agent, for which supervisor monitoring is requested, escalation of the IM to voice might produce unexpected results. Results will differ, depending on the number of IM participants in the conversation and the party that requested IM to voice escalation, but generally, incorrect call flows might be reported.
To work around this, the supervisor should cancel monitoring of the next call on the agent if that agent is established in an IM conversation with a supervisor.
ID: LYNC-1403 | Found In: 8.5.000.51 | Fixed In: 8.5.000.94 |
If an agent establishes a call with a supervisor who is already in a monitoring session, the monitoring session becomes inactive and the supervisor cannot monitor the agent, or initiate new monitoring sessions.
ID: LYNC-1388 | Found In: 8.5.000.51 | Fixed In: 8.5.000.94 |
If the backup T-Server starts when the primary T-Server is already running, there is no synchronization of agent states between the T-Servers potentially causing incorrect agent states when the backup is promoted to primary.
ID: LYNC-1202 | Found In: 8.5.000.51 | Fixed In: 8.5.000.94 |
T-Server does not support DND state synchronization between primary and backup T-Server. Previously, after T-Server switchover or failover, the DND state could become desynchronized from the Skype for Business presence state. The DND state now synchronizes when the newly appointed primary T-Server receives the first presence update from Skype for Business.
