Form 6: Line Ownership

Required if VMS Line Coverage exists for one or more lines

Line #

Telephone Number

Line Owner (Subscriber Name)

Mailbox
General Information
■
Lines in the system are assigned either ownership or
Automated Attendant Service coverage—a single line
cannot
be assigned both types of coverage.
■
■
■
■
Note that more than one line may be assigned to the same
mailbox, but a single line cannot be assigned to more than one
mailbox.
Lines that are assigned ownership typically are used for
personal lines or outside access to the voice messaging
system if Automated Attendant Service is not used. If the
company has users who need to access mailboxes when no
one is around to transfer them to their mailboxes, you can set
up the system as follows:
–
Assign extension 10 as owner of the covered lines.
–
Instruct users to press [
★
] [ 7 ] when they hear the personal
greeting from extension 10.
See the communications system planning forms to determine
line numbers, telephone numbers, and line owners’ extensions.
As an alternative to VMS Line Coverage you can use Extension
Line Coverage. See Chapter 5 for more information.
