—Since “#5” was not embedded within this VFN, the destination telephone number (12125551643) will be transmitted after the WATS access code.
VF codes may be included in numbers stored in REP DIAL buttons, System Speed Dialing codes, and Personal Speed Dialing codes if the VF code is used at the beginning of these numbers. VF codes may not be assigned to FACILITY buttons and may not be embedded in other virtual facility numbers.
VFs may be used in ARS routing patterns just as if they were physical facilities.

In addition, in those systems where users are permitted dial access to VFs, user dialing of long digit strings is minimized, as are the associated dialing errors.

● Assign a virtual facility number to this code.
●Allow dial access to this virtual facility (l = Y/0 = N).
