Performing a Search
Search functionality is applied across all the available and enabled directories. Pressing on any dialpad key initiates the
search. After entering the first few letters of the contacts first name, last name, or company name, you can then quickly
select a contact and perform the desired action. If external Directory sources are configured and enabled, you can select a
contact from the consolidated "All" folder to perform an action, or navigate to the contact in the specific Directory folder
to perform the desired action.
Use the following procedure on the phone's UI to perform a search.
