Outgoing Call Restriction Button (#114)
Description
This System Programming procedure identifies a button on the system phone at extension 10 to be used to change the current Outgoing Call Restriction setting for a specific extension. This button is useful for quickly changing an extension’s restriction. For example, after a guest’s departure, a hotel manager can change the Outgoing Call Restriction setting of the room phone from No Restriction to Inside Only so outside calls cannot be made from the phone after the guest checks out. Conversely, a receptionist can change the Outgoing Call Restriction setting of a conference room phone from Local Only (which prevents users from making long distance calls) to No Restriction so a client can dial long distance.
