About Sharing Stations; Placing Outbound Calls From Shared Stations - Toshiba Strata CS User Manual

About sharing stations ____________________________________

In Strata CS you can share your internal or external station (telephone) with one or more other
users, and still use your individual settings such as personal status and dialing permissions. You
might share a station for a number of reasons, including the following:
Your office uses shifts, and you and another person use the same desk at different times
!
of the day.
Your office does not have assigned desks, and you might work at a different phone every
!
day. This is sometimes referred to as hot-desking or hotelling.
You frequently move from phone to phone during the day, placing and receiving calls
!
wherever it's most convenient.
The station you're using is a phone in a conference room, lab, or other shared location.
!
This chapter covers procedures you should use if you share a station for these or any other
reasons.

Placing outbound calls from shared stations __________________

How Strata CS handles outbound calls from a station depends on which user is currently logged
in at that station. Only one user at a time can be logged in at a station. When someone places an
outbound call from the station, Strata CS assumes it's the user who is logged in, and handles the
call as follows:
The call is subject to that user's dialing permissions and restrictions.
!
The call is logged in the Call Log as placed by that user.

If you are using a shared station, before placing calls you should make sure that you are logged
in to the station. To log on, do the following:
