Setting Sweep Options

It also removes temporary user accounts on an expiration date that you specify in the Add/Edit User dialog box. When a sweep occurs, the Vocera Voice Server performs the following tasks:

• It deletes messages regardless of whether the user has played or read them, unless they have been saved.

• It deletes all information about a temporary user from the database.

The sweeps are permanent—users cannot access messages after the Vocera Voice Server sweeps them. Similarly, temporary users who have been removed cannot log in after a sweep occurs.

Independent of the sweep mechanism, the Vocera Voice Server also limits the combined total of text and email messages each individual can store or save.

• Each user can store up to 20 combined text and email messages at a time. When a user receives a 21st message, the Vocera Voice Server deletes the oldest unsaved message.

• Each user can save up to ten of the 20 stored messages.
