Multi-Company Variant

Configuring the Multi-Company Variant

 

 

Only when this package has been activated are the fields required to configure the multi-company variant available in the other menus of the Web console, for example in the User Manager: User groups menu or in the Telephony: Trunks menu.

12.1.2 Configuring and Managing Companies

Up to five companies can be configured in the Aastra 800. By default, one company with the name “Company 1” is predefined. All configuration settings, e.g. in the user groups or in the bundle configuration, apply to this predefined default company if not other company has been selected.

Companies are set up and managed in the Telephony: Extended: Companies menu:

A new company is created in this menu using the command New. Each company can be given a name up to 20 characters long. This name is then dis- played in all configuration dialog boxes in which company-specific settings can be defined.

In this menu a company can be deleted again using the command Delete. If a company is deleted which is still used at other places (in the user groups, for example), the respective configuration is changed to the default company.

The name of the default company can be changed, but the default company itself cannot be deleted.

12.1.3 Assigning Users

For each user you must define the company to which they belong. This assignment determines, for example, which company telephone book the user has access to and which company-specific configuration data apply to them.

As the Aastra 800 manages users in groups, the assignment “user > company” is also established this way. The company to which each user group belongs must be defined for each group. A user group can only belong to one company, i.e. not to several. However, a company can have several user groups. It is therefore possible, in the same way as in the entire system, to allocate a range of authorisation rights for the use and configuration of features for each company.
