The Application Status Flag (Appstat) - Avaya 1600 Series Administrator's Manual

Administering Applications and Options

The Application Status Flag (APPSTAT)

The 1600 Series IP Deskphones offer the user numerous applications like Contacts, Call Log, Redial,
and so on. Each of these applications allows the user to add, delete, or in some cases, edit entries.
You, as the administrator, might not want the user to have that level of functionality. For example, a
hotel lobby deskphone probably should not allow a user to delete the concierge's contact number.
Further, for privacy reasons, that same deskphone should not allow a Call Log display. You can use the
Application Status Flag, APPSTAT, to administer specific application functionality permission levels for
one or more deskphones.
APPSTAT consists of one number, specifying a certain level of allowed functionality. A Zero ("0") value
is the most limiting setting. Values "2" and "3" allow increasing levels of functionality, and "1" allows the
user complete application functionality.

In Table 19, "suppressed" applications are not displayed to the user. Softkey labels, application tabs,
and so on are not labeled or displayed. Options associated with suppressed applications can continue
to display unless you override them by appropriate OPSTAT parameter administration. Displayed
options have no effect while the application is suppressed.
In Table 19, "Contact changes are not allowed" means the Contact application displays and the user
can make calls as normal. Any controls that allow the user to change any aspect of the Contact
application do not display. This restriction includes the ability to add, delete, or edit any Contact name
or number.
In Table 19, "Only one-number Redial is allowed" means the user Option that allows a choice between
displaying last numbers dialed is suppressed. The Redial buffer stores only one number. The Redial
application does not display since the user can redial only one number. This restriction allows privacy
once a given user has left the deskphone.
You can:
set APPSTAT to 1, for example, in a staging area,
●
administer a given deskphone with Contact entries of your choice, like the Concierge deskphone
●
number button in the earlier example,
then move the deskphone to where it will be used, where you have administered APPSTAT to be,
●
for example, 0 (zero).
