Chapter 5 - Monitoring an On Going Conference
5-106
Managing a Voting/Polling Session
A voting session allows participants to vote on a set of choices presented to
them by the conference chairperson or system operator.
A voting session is comprised of up to 10 choices for one item/subject. Each
choice is assigned a digit (between 0 to 9) and a title describing the option.
For example, the conference participants are asked to vote "Yes" or "No" on a
subject.
Prior to the start of the voting session, the conference moderator creates the
list of choices for the vote. The moderator must inform the conference
participants of the choices available and the digit assigned to each option.
During the voting session, each participant enters the digit of his/her choice
using the telephone's touch-tone keypad or the endpoints DTMF input device.
Each vote is counted and the statistics are presented on-line. The results of a
voting session can be sent out via E-mail.
To setup a Voting session:
1. Point to the Conference Actions menu, and then click Voting.
This feature is available only in IVR-enabled conferences. To vote, the
participant requires access to a DTMF-enabled phone or endpoint.
