Removing a user account from Skype for Business Server

You can use the Active Roles Web Interface to remove a user account from Skype for Business Server. This removes all Skype for Business Server-related attributes from the user account, including the identities of any per-user policies that have been assigned to that user account.

You can later re-add the account to Skype for Business Server as described in Adding and enabling a new Skype for Business Server user). However, you will need to reconfigure all Skype for Business Server-related information (including policy assignments) previously associated with that account.

TIP: If you want to prevent a user from logging on to Skype for Business Server, but do not want to lose all of their account information, you can temporarily disable the user account for Skype for Business Server, as described in Disabling or re-enabling a user account for Skype for Business Server.

To remove a user account from Skype for Business Server

  1. In the Active Roles Web Interface, select the user account that you want to remove from Skype for Business Server.

  2. Click Remove from Skype for Business Server.

    NOTE: This option appears only if:

    • You have sufficient rights in Active Roles.

    • The user account you selected is in the scope of the policy provided by Skype for Business Server User Management.

    • The user account is either enabled or temporarily disabled for Skype for Business Server.

Managing Skype for Business Server user properties

By using the Active Roles Web Interface, you can:

  • View or change Skype for Business Server user properties such as the user’s SIP address, telephony options and Skype for Business Server policy assignments.

  • Move Skype for Business Server users to a different Enterprise Edition Front End pool or Standard Edition server.

Viewing or changing Skype for Business Server user properties

You can view or modify the Skype for Business user settings and user policies of a user account that is enabled or temporarily disabled for Skype for Business Server with the Active Roles Web Interface.

To view or change Skype for Business Server user properties

  1. In the Active Roles Web Interface, select the user account whose properties you want to view or change.

  2. Click Skype for Business Server User Properties.

    NOTE: This option appears only if:

    • You have sufficient rights in Active Roles.

    • The user account you selected is in the scope of the policy provided by Skype for Business Server User Management.

    • The account is enabled or temporarily disabled for Skype for Business Server.

  3. On the page that appears, view or change the following settings:

    • Enabled for Skype for Business Server: Specifies whether the user can log in to Skype for Business Server.

      If you clear this check box, the user will no longer be able to log in to Skype for Business Server.

      Selecting this check box re-enables the user to log in to Skype for Business Server. The function of this check box is equivalent to the Temporarily Disable for Skype for Business Server and Re-enable for Skype for Business Server options. For more information, see Disabling or re-enabling a user account for Skype for Business Server.

    • SIP address: Specifies the user’s SIP address (SIP URI), a unique identifier allowing the user to communicate using SIP devices, such as Microsoft Skype for Business. The SIP address consists of the SIP user name on the left side of the @ symbol, and the SIP domain name on the right side. It must be prefaced by “sip:”, such as:

      sip:Sam.Smith@company.com

    • Registrar pool: Identifies the Enterprise Edition Front End pool or Standard Edition server where the Skype for Business Server user is stored. If you need to move the user to a different server or pool, see Moving a user to another server or pool in Skype for Business Server.

    • Telephony: Specifies whether the Skype for Business Server user can make PC-to-PC calls with audio and video, route incoming and outgoing calls, and control the desktop phone. The possible telephony options are as follows:

      • PC-to-PC only: The user can make only PC-to-PC audio or video calls.

      • Audio/video disabled: The user cannot make calls with audio and video.

      • Remote call control: The user can use Skype for Business Server to control the desktop phone, and can also make PC-to-PC calls.

      • Enterprise Voice: The user can use Skype for Business Server to route all incoming and outgoing calls, and can also make PC-to-PC calls.

      • Remote call control only: The user can use Skype for Business Server to control the desktop phone, but cannot make PC-to-PC audio calls.

    • Line URI: Specifies the primary phone number assigned to the Skype for Business Server user.

      NOTE: Consider the following when using this setting:

      • This setting applies to all telephony options but Audio/video disabled.

      • The line URI must use the E.164 format and have the TEL: prefix. For example:

        TEL:+12345678997

        The extension number, if any, must be added at the end of the line URI. For example:

        TEL:+12345678997;ext=65431

    • Line server URI: Specifies the URI of the remote call control telephone gateway assigned to the Skype for Business Server user.

      The line server URI is the gateway URI, prefaced by sip:. For example:

      sip:rccgateway@company.com

      NOTE: This setting applies to the Remote call control and Remote call control only options.

  4. (Optional) If you need to apply any user policies to the user, configure the following policy settings:

    • Dial plan policy: Specifies the dial plan currently assigned to the Skype for Business user, and allows you to assign a different dial plan.

      NOTE: This setting applies to the Enterprise Voice option.

    • Voice policy: Specifies the voice policy currently assigned to the Skype for Business Server user, and allows you to assign a different voice policy.

    • Conferencing policy: Specifies the conferencing policy currently assigned to the Skype for Business Server user, and allows you to assign a different conferencing policy to the user.

    • Client version policy Specifies the client version policy currently assigned to the Skype for Business Server user, and allows you to assign a different client version policy.

    • PIN policy: Specifies the personal identification number (PIN) policy currently assigned to the Skype for Business Server user, and allows you to assign a different PIN policy.

    • External access policy: Specifies the external access policy currently assigned to the Skype for Business Server user, and allows you to assign a different external access policy.

    • Archiving policy: Specifies the archiving policy currently assigned to the Skype for Business Server user, and allows you to assign a different archiving policy.

    NOTE: Consider the following when configuring any of the policy settings:

    • The Skype for Business Server user account policy settings allow you to assign specific policies to users that differ from the policy settings assigned to other users (such as global policies). These policies are referred to as "user policies".

    • In Skype for Business Server, configuring user policies is optional; you can deploy only global policies or site policies. If you configure user policies, you must assign them explicitly to users. When managing Skype for Business Server user settings, you can select the appropriate user policy from a list. The list also includes the <Automatic> entry: selecting it will apply the global policy (or, if defined, the site policy) to the user.

Moving a user to another server or pool in Skype for Business Server

You can move a user account that is enabled or temporarily disabled for Skype for Business Server to a specific Enterprise Edition Front End pool or Standard Edition server with the Active Roles Web Interface.

To move a Skype for Business Server user account to a different server or pool

  1. In the Active Roles Web Interface, select the user account you want to move.

  2. Click Move to Skype for Business Server Pool.

    NOTE: This option appears only if:

    • You have sufficient rights in Active Roles.

    • The user account you selected is in the scope of the policy provided by Skype for Business Server User Management.

    • The selected user is enabled or temporarily disabled for Skype for Business Server.

  3. On the page that appears, select the server or pool to which you want to move the Skype for Business Server user.

  4. Click Finish.
