Account Codes - Panasonic DBS576 Section 700 Technical Manual

Section 700 - Operation
• FF3 (Extension): Extension Class of Service Assignment
• FF8 (Maintenance): Absence Messages
Considerations
• Calling parties without a display get a busy signal, rather than the Absence Message.
• Regardless of setting an Absence Message on a DID/DIL extension, DID/DIL calls are routed
according to the trunk ringing setting.
• An absence message may also be cancelled by dialing 7**. This cancels Do Not Disturb and Call
Forwarding-All Calls as well.

Account Codes

CPC-96, CPC-288, and CPC-576 All Versions
Description
You can assign account codes to clients to facilitate billing and to track call dates and times, numbers
called, and outside line numbers used. This information is printed for each account on the System
Message Detail Recording (SMDR) record.
In addition verified account codes may be used to change the TRS level to allow calls to numbers
otherwise restricted.
Account codes may be either forced or unforced (voluntary) and either verified or unverified.
This feature works with SMDR. During a phone call, a station user can silently enter an accounting or
client billing code. The entered Code will display on the phone's LCD as it's dialed, so the user can
tell it's being registered. Then later, the SMDR reports will show the Code dialed for each call, and
even sort the report by these Codes.
There are two different types of account codes you can use in the DBS 576:
Non-Verified Account Codes
Non-Verified Codes aren't checked by the system for validity; the user can enter anything from 1-10
digits long. Individual phones can be programmed to accept forced Account Codes (the user must
enter a code for every call) or voluntary Account Codes (the user can enter a code, but doesn't have
to, for each call).
Non-Verified Account Codes can be assigned to incoming and/or outgoing calls. For incoming calls,
the user can enter the Code anytime during the call. For outgoing calls, the user either enters the Code
before accessing an outside line (for forced Codes), or anytime during the call (for voluntary Codes).
Verified Account Codes
Verified Account Codes entered by phone users must match a 4-digit code that has been
preprogrammed into an Account Code Table. (It is possible to enter up to 10 digits for a Verified
Account Code; however, only the first 4 digits will be used to verify the code.) These codes can also
be either forced or voluntary. You can program these codes with their own Toll Restriction Service
(TRS) Class assignment so that, when entered, they will override the extension's TRS Class. Thus,
Verified Account Code users can "float" from phone to phone, placing calls that would normally be
restricted on that phone.
