Using The Directory - Mitel MiVoice Office 250 User Manual

Using the Directory

You can use the Directory to find internal or external contacts or find and activate system
features. The directory uses Intelligent Directory Search (IDS), which is similar to the "text on 9
keys" (T9) predictive search feature used for mobile phones. The Directory has the following
three subdirectories:



When searching the directory, dialpad buttons can represent several characters, as shown in
the following table. As you enter characters, the entries that best match the characters entered
appear. The system connects the character sequence to possible directory matches. For
example, to find the name "Jones," dial 56637.

Previous versions of your system software may be programmed to use the Basic
Search feature. With this feature, you do not have predictive search capabilities,
therefore, you may have to enter the complete contact or feature name using the
dialpad characters shown on "Using the Dialpad Buttons to Enter Characters" on
page 11.
