Account Codes - NEC UX5000 Feature Handbook

Account Codes

Account Codes are codes you enter that help keep track of outside calls. There are two types of Account
Codes: Optional and Forced. With optional codes, the Account Codes you enter are solely for categorizing
your calls. For example, if you work in an accounting firm that must bill back customers for time on the ter-
minal, Optional Account Codes are for you. Forced Account Codes also let you categorize calls, but you
must enter one before placing outgoing calls. If you don't enter the code, you can't place the call. This
ensures that calls don't go out untracked. When forced and verified Account Codes are enabled for toll
calls only, local and toll free numbers have optional account codes.
Check with your Communications Manager to find out if your UX5000 uses Account Codes - and which
codes you should enter. Account Codes can be from 1-16 digits long, using 0-9 and #.
To enter an Account Code any time while on an outside call:
1. * + Account Code (1-16 digits) +
To enter an Account Code while placing an outside call:
1. Access trunk for outside call.
You can access a trunk by pressing a line key or by dialing a code. Refer to page 105 for more
on placing outside calls.
*
2. + Account Code (1-16 digits) +
3. Dial the number you want to call.
If you hear "stutter" dial tone after dialing the number, your UX5000 requires an ARS Authoriza-
tion Code. Ask your Communications Manager for your codes.
