Section 700 - Operation Chapter 5. Key Telephone Features
576-13-700 DBS 576 (USA), Revised 6/11/98 113
This feature works with Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR). During a phone call, a station
user can silently enter an accounting or client billing code. The entered Code will display on the
phone’s LCD as it’s dialed, so the user can tell it’s being registered. Then later, the SMDR reports will
show the Code dialed for each call, and even sort the report by these Codes.
There are two different types of account codes you can use in the DBS 576:
Non-Verified Account Codes
Non-Verified Codes aren’t checked by the system for validity; the user can enter anything from 1-10
digits long. Individual phones can be programmed to accept forced Account Codes (the user must
enter a code for ever y call) or voluntary Account Codes (the user can enter a code, but doesn’t have
to, for each call).
Non-Verified Account Codes can be assigned to incoming and/or outgoing calls. For incoming calls,
the user can enter the Code anytime during the call. For outgoing calls, the user either enters the Code
before accessing an outside line (for forced Codes), or anytime during the call (for voluntary Codes).
Verified Account Codes
Verified Account Codes entered by phone users must match a code that has been preprogrammed into
an Account Code Table. These codes can also be either forced or voluntary. You can program these
codes with their own Toll Restriction Service (TRS) Class assignment so th at, when enter ed, they will
override the extension’s TRS Class. Thus, Verified Account Code users can “float” from phone to
phone, placing calls that would normally be restricted on that phone.
Non-Verified Account Codes
Non-verified Account codes are voluntary codes. (i.e., You do not have to ente r an accou nt code
before making a call.)
You can assign Non-verified Account codes to both incoming and outgoing calls. To assign an
account code to an outgoing call, you enter the account code before making the call or during the call.
To assign an account code to an incoming call, you enter the account code during the call.
