Unanswered calls go immediately to the voice messaging system through the system’s Night Service with Coverage Control feature (Release 4.1 and later systems only), which automatically deactivates Coverage VMS Off buttons during Night Service operation, then reactivates them during normal business hours. Individuals use Forward/Follow Me features occasionally.

■Cost-Effective Calling. Automatic Route Selection (ARS) for cost-effective line/trunk selection for outgoing calls.

■Restrictions on Outgoing Calls. Automatic Route Selection (ARS) with Facility Restriction Levels (FRLs); Allowed/Disallowed Lists; remote access barrier codes; authorization codes are mandatory for anyone using extensions other than their own; pool dial-out code restriction to reserve data-only lines.

■Tracking Calls and Costs for Client Billback. Call Accounting System and use of the Account Code Entry feature for tracking calls by customer account for billing purposes.

NOTE:

Partners use the Authorization Codes feature (see the section,

‘Calling‘ Restrictions’’ on page 5-21) so that they can make calls from extensions other than their own and still use their own calling privileges. However, these calls cannot be tracked for client billback using the Account Code Entry feature. When both Account Codes and Authorization Codes features are used, only the authorization code is printed on reports.

■Paging. Loudspeaker paging for certain work areas; secretaries use programmed speakerphone paging buttons to inform their bosses about calls waiting for them.
