User guide

When you create an association for a new manager, you need to enter a device name. When you update a
manager with an existing Unified CM Assistant record, consider these fields optional. BAT does not allow
you to assign the intercom line of a manager to a proxy line for an assistant if the number of manager lines is
greater than or equal to three.
