3 / Making Calls
3. Placing Outside Calls
If your company has different types of outside lines, your telephone system may use the Least Cost Routing feature to ensure calls are made using the cheapest possible route. You may be required to enter the Least Cost Routing feature code on some or all of your long distance calls. Alternatively, your system may be programmed to select the cheapest route automatically.
If your company wants to monitor outgoing calls for cost or billing purposes, you may need to enter account codes for some or all of your calls. Depending upon your system programming you may be required to enter account code or it may be optional.
Emergency 911 calls that you may make from an extension are displayed on the attendant’s keyset. The information on the display includes that it was an emergency call and the extension number that placed the call. This allows the attendant to direct emergency personnel to the exact location of the call.
Note: Consult your system administrator for any restrictions in your ability to make outside calls, or features that are not available to you.
