Outgoing Call Restriction (#401)

Description
This System Programming procedure identifies the types of outgoing calls that
can be made on all lines at an extension. See
Permissions'' on page 2-12
Related Features
This restriction also applies to lines that a user has access to with Direct
n
Line Pickup—Idle Line.
To override this feature, users can dial Marked System Speed Dial
n
Numbers and numbers from an Allowed Phone Number List (#407) and
the Emergency Phone Number List (#406). Also, if a System Password
(#403) is defined, MLS-model system phone users can enter it to override
restrictions.
You can program a button on the system phone at extension 10 to be used
n
to quickly change an extension's Outgoing Call Restriction setting. See
''Outgoing Call Restriction Button (#114)'' on page 5-200
You can use Line Access Restriction (#302) to restrict extensions from
n
making or receiving calls on specific lines, Pool Access Restriction
(#315) to restrict extensions from making or receiving calls on all lines
belonging to a specific pool, and Disallowed Phone Number Lists (#404)
to specify telephone numbers that users cannot dial.
If you program an extension for Forced Account Code Entry (#307), the
n
user at that extension must enter an Account Code before accessing an
outside line. (This feature is not available on standard phones.)
If Star Code Dial Delay (#410) is active, the system checks for allowed
n
and disallowed phone numbers again beginning with the first digit after the
star code.
Considerations
While procedures that restrict dialing are very effective, absolute protection
n
against misuse cannot be guaranteed. System phones give you more
protection against such misuse than standard phones. Therefore, we
strongly recommend that you install system phones where restricting
phone use is important.
If the system is connected to a PBX or Centrex system and a dial-out code
n
(usually 9) is needed to place calls outside the PBX or Centrex system, the
control unit may not be able to prevent calls for extensions restricted to
Local Only. If dialing restrictions are needed on Centrex lines, use Centrex
restrictions instead.
