Configuring Softkey Templates
Using Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration, you can associate up to 18 softkeys
with applications that are supported by the Cisco Unified IP Phone 6921, 6941, and 6961.
Cisco Unified Communications Manager support the Standard User and Standard Feature softkey
template.
An application that supports softkeys can have one or more standard softkey templates associated with
it. You can modify a standard softkey template by making a copy of it, giving it a new name, and making
updates to that copied softkey template. You can also modify a nonstandard softkey template.
To configure softkey templates, select
Device > Device Settings > Softkey Template

Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration. To assign a softkey template to a phone, use
the Softkey Template field in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Phone
Configuration page. Refer to the “
