Dialing internal and external numbers _______________________

Internal calls are calls to other Strata CS extensions. External calls are calls to outside numbers,
including calls to another phone system (PBX), a Centrex extension, another Strata CS system
such as a branch office, and an Internet address.
Note:
If you encounter a delay after dialing before your calls are connected, you can press #
after the extension or number, for example, 187#. This skips the delay.

Entering account codes when placing calls

Depending on your office's configuration of Strata CS, you may be prompted to enter an
account code when you place an external call. Even if you are not prompted for an account code
by the system, your office may require you to enter one. Your Strata CS system administrator
can tell you what account codes, if any, you must use.
If you are prompted to enter an account code
If you are prompted to enter an account code when you place a call, you will hear one of the
following prompts:
A beep.

"Please enter account code."

A double beep. This indicates that you are dialing a Strata CS contact who has an
!
associated account code, so that you do not need to enter one. See "Entering a contact's
name and basic information" on page 16-5.
