When the system is set up, users can place local and toll calls from all
telephones. You can restrict selected telephones from making outside calls and
allow only intercom (inside) calls—for example, telephones in a reception area
or break room. Or, to control toll abuse, you can restrict telephones from making
toll calls but still allow local and intercom calls.
If these restrictions are too limited, you can use the Allowed List feature to
permit dialing numbers such as emergency numbers from a restricted
telephone. Or, instead of restricting telephones, you can use the Disallowed List
feature to prevent dialing numbers (such as "900" numbers) from any telephone.
PLanning Form Instructions
Under the "Call Restriction" heading of Forms 4a through 5b:
1.
Check "Unrestricted" to keep the factory setting (intercom, local, and toll
calls can be placed).
2.
Check "Outward Restrict" to restrict the telephone from making outside
calls (only intercom calls can be made).
3.
Check "Toll Restrict" to restrict the telephone from making toll calls
(intercom and local calls can be made).
Forced Account Code Entry, requiring users to enter account codes (1 to
16 digits) before making outside calls, is used to associate calls with
corresponding accounts, clients, or projects, or to track personal calls.
Incoming calls can be tracked with account codes, but you can neither 'force
users to enter them nor verify them for accuracy.
