1.5 Making Call Features

1.5.2.3Account Code Entry

Description

An account code is used to identify outgoing outside (CO) line calls for accounting and billing purposes. Account codes are appended to SMDR call records ( 1.20.1 Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR)), and have several uses. For example, a firm can use an account code for each client to determine which calls were made for which client, and can submit a bill to the client according to the client's account code as shown on the SMDR call record.

There are 4 methods of entering account codes, explained below. One method is assigned to each extension through system programming ( Account Code Mode [605]).
