--- title: Customizing Your Voice-to-Ivanti-Neurons for ITSM Integration slug: neurons-for-itsm/admin-user-help/enu/latest/customizing-your-voice-to-ivanti-neurons-for-itsm-integration createdAt: 2026-07-14T19:16:47.708Z --- The set up and configuration of users in Ivanti Voice utilizes standard Neurons for ITSM business objects and forms. Business object and field names must be maintained so synchronization can occur. With the exception of business object and field names, you can customize the integration to fit your needs. Some examples of potential customizations include the following: - Role-based forms that limit the specific data that supervisors can manage. - Adding additional auditing of fields as required to track changes. - Adding dashboards to show user dial plan and extension listings. To effectively use the information in this section, you should have experience using Neurons for ITSM and be familiar with user administration in Ivanti Voice. When Ivanti Voice and Neurons for ITSM have been properly integrated, much of the day to day administrative tasks for Ivanti Voice can be accomplished using Neurons for ITSM. Before you begin, you need to load any user profiles that require Ivanti Voice access as employee records in Neurons for ITSM. :::hint{type="info"} This section does not cover Ivanti Voice-specific settings. Refer to the Ivanti Voice online help for Ivanti Voice configuration settings. This section focuses on the settings unique to a synchronized environment. ::: ## About Administering the Two Systems Typically, different sets of people administer Neurons for ITSM and Ivanti Voice systems, so they use separate administrative interfaces. However, they do have some user management features in common. With Neurons for ITSM, you can use synchronization so that users can be administered exclusively in Neurons for ITSM. Ivanti Voice automatically synchronizes the settings, eliminating duplicated efforts. All synchronization between the two systems is from Neurons for ITSM to Ivanti Voice. No data is transferred from Ivanti Voice to Neurons for ITSM. ## Installing and Configuring Ivanti Voice For information about installing and configuring Ivanti Voice, see the *IP Communications Management Administrator Guide* in the Neurons for ITSM Knowledge Base as article 25218. ## Integrating Ivanti Voice with Ivanti Neurons for ITSM After you have configured Ivanti Voice to integrate with Neurons for ITSM, you need to configure Neurons for ITSM to integrate with Ivanti Voice. This is done through the Neurons for ITSM Configuration Database. 1. Log in to the Neurons for ITSM Configuration Database. For information about using the Neurons for ITSM Configuration Database, see the *Configuration Database Guide for *Ivanti Neurons for ITSM. 2. Navigate to the **Tenants** workspace, select the tenant that you want to integrate with Ivanti Voice, and open that record. 3. Select the **IPCM** tab at the bottom of the **Tenants** workspace. 4. Enter the following values: - **IPCM Host**: Enter the fully-qualified domain name of the Ivanti Voice server. - **IPCM Port**: 5743 - **IPCM URL**: Enter the URL in the form - https\://Ivanti\_Voice\_server/Virtual Directory name/C2TWebService.asmx where Ivanti\_Voice\_server is the fully qualified domain name of the Ivanti Voice server and the Virtual directory name for Voice application as in IIS. - **IPCM Login ID**: Enter a valid user name for Ivanti Voice. This is used by Neurons for ITSM to call web services in Ivanti Voice. No specific role is required, it just needs to be a valid Ivanti Voice user. - **IPCM Password**: Enter the password associated with the Ivanti Voice login ID. :::hint{type="info" indent="1"} It is recommended that you change the default password in Neurons for ITSM and update the same in Voice as well. ::: :::Paragraph{listStyleType="disc" indent="2"} **IPCM Url Port**: Enter the Ivanti Voice URL port. ::: :::Paragraph{listStyleType="disc" indent="2"} **Is Hybrid Voice**: Check this if you want the system to ignore all the settings above (that start with Ivanti Voice) and to use the settings that were previously set in the Configuration Console. ::: :::Paragraph{indent="2"} *IPCM Tab in the *Ivanti* Configuration Database* ::: ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/parib0MC3hVoUNdfQdnac/9pryqq_NueSzCJLxTszCe_ipcm-new.png" position="flex-start" size="40" initialPath="../../Resources/Images/help-images/IPCM-New.png" githubPath="Content/Resources/Images/help-images/IPCM-New.png" showCaption="false" indent="2"} 5. Save your changes. :::Paragraph{indent="1"} Neurons for ITSM is now configured to connect to Ivanti Voice. ::: ## Managing a Ivanti Voice User Account Management Ivanti Voice user accounts are managed as employee records in Neurons for ITSM.

In Neurons for ITSM, users can control their phone via an integrated voice toolbar. To allow a user to access this interface, check **Enable Voice Integrated Toolbar**. If they will use the **Voice Agent** dashboard instead, do not select this option. ## Configuring User Extensions In Ivanti Voice, users are assigned an extension, which is configured in the SIP Soft Switch phones section of the Ivanti Voice Management Portal. In Neurons for ITSM, this is configured as a configuration item (inventory item). Follow these steps to configure user extensions: 1. Log in to the Service Desk Console. 2. Open the **Employee** workspace, find the employee to manage, and open the employee record for that employee. 3. On the **Details** tab, check **Enable Voice** to synchronize the user to Ivanti Voice and click **Save**. 4. Click the **Voice - Agent Properties** tab. 5. In the **VOIP Device** field, select a VOIP device to associate with this user. (You can also create a new configuration item, if the user has a soft phone, or a desktop IP phone that is not already generated as a configuration item. Click **Add VOIP** to create a new configuration item of type VOIP. Enter a unique name for this device. In the **Owner** field, enter the name of the employee to which this extension is assigned.) 6. Enter the details that you would normally configure in the **SIP Soft Switch Phones** page of the Ivanti Voice Management Portal. Configure the type of device to be phone. Configure the number, which is the extension number associated with this extension. You can also configure the authentication and forwarding sections as needed. Once you have associated a VOIP configuration item with the user, their extension is displayed in the **Voice - Agent Properties** tab. 7. Click **Save**. ## Assigning Skills to a User If a user is assigned the role of Contact Center Agent, you need to assign their skills on the **Voice - Agent Skills** tab. This tab displays a list view of all of the agent's skills grouped by skill group. 1. Log in to Neurons for ITSM. 2.
