6When do my changes take effect?
Depending on the type of change, some changes take effect immediately when you click
Commit while others require the phone or system to restart before they take effect. After you
commit a change, click Changes Pending or System Changes Pending to see which
changes are not yet active and the time they will take effect. If you want the changes to take
effect immediately, click Restart Phone (for changes pending) or Restart System (for system
changes pending). Otherwise, the changes will not go into effect until the next system
maintenance window.
Online Help
Each page in the Phone Application includes a Help button that provides quick answers to
questions you may have about entering information on the associated page. Simply click the
Help button to display help for that page.
Finding Your Way Home
By default, the Phone Application opens to the Home screen. From this screen you can see
the Tab Index and go to the Key screen which explains graphical elements and visual cues
used throughout the Phone Application. To go back to the Home page from any other
location, click the Home tab.
Navigating with the Tab Index
The Tab Index is the first screen that opens when you start the Phone Application. It contains
an index of the Phone Application features. An expanded view of the tabs is located below
the row of tabs. To navigate to a different screen, click on its hyperlinked title or click on one
of the tabs on top of the Tab Index screen.
IMPORTANT: Restarting the system will
cause a brief loss of phone and data
services.
