Assign Access Levels when someone adds you to their Contact List
When a person adds you to his or her Contact List, you receive an alert, as shown below in Figure 4.1.
The alert enables you to add the contact to your Contact List and allows you to set the person’s level of
access to your presence information.

To assign an access level when someone adds you to their Contact List
In the Office Communicator window, select an access level in the This person’s level of
access list, and then click OK. To understand how Access Levels control what others see,
see the following ―Access Levels and Phone Numbers Example‖ section.
Access Levels and Phone Numbers Example
One of the most important aspects of access levels is controlling the exposure of your mobile and
home phone numbers to others. After all, you will want your closest co-workers to have your mobile
number, but not the entire company. In addition, you will want to make you home phone number
available only to a short list of people.
If you want to make your mobile phone number available to a contact, you assign that contact to the
Team access level. If you want to make all your phone numbers available to a contact, you assign that
contact to the Personal access level. Table 4.2 below provides an example of how access levels
assigned to a contact affect the phone numbers that they see.
