Avaya 555-250-701 manual Using Selected Voice Features, Abbreviated Dialing/Automatic Dialing AD

Using Selected Voice Features

The following features are available only if your system manager has administered them as feature buttons on your 2420 telephone or has supplied you with the required feature access codes.

Abbreviated Dialing/Automatic Dialing (AD)

The Abbreviated Dialing (AD) feature allows you to store selected telephone numbers for quick and easy dialing. Each number can be a complete or partial telephone number, an extension number, or a trunk or feature access code and can contain up to 24 digits. Abbreviated Dialing offers four possible types of lists—Personal, Group, System, and Enhanced, and you can have a total of three lists. (Of these three lists, you can have only one System List and one Enhanced List.) You program numbers on a Personal List; numbers on Group Lists are programmable by the controller of the list; System Lists and Enhanced Lists are programmable only by the system manager.

Note: Calls that you make using the Abbreviated Dialing/Automatic Dialing feature are not stored in the Call Log—even if you have programmed the 2420 telephone to log outgoing calls.
