Generally, you work on extension configuration by selecting an extension
in the General window, then clicking another tab to work on the settings in
some other window. The features and functions available in the Extension
Configuration windows vary depending on the type of extension selected.
When you select an extension in the General window—the first window
you see when you first launch Extension Configuration—and work on it
under other tabs, the extension number appears in the window title bar. For
example, if you’re setting up phone answering options, the group view of
the window shows Group Handling options that do not appear in other
views.
You can print the data in any of the windows by clicking the Print button.
Apply To Button
The extension configuration windows often allow you to apply changes to
a particular extension or group or to select many extensions or groups to
which to apply the changes.
Clicking the Apply To button pops up a list of all extensions to which the
change can apply. All extensions are selected by default. You then de-
select the ones you don’t want, or de-select all and then select the ones you
want. Note that you cannot use the mouse to drag over and select multiple
items; you must use the Shift and Ctrl keys.
The Apply To button is disabled unless there is a change that can be
applied to multiple extensions, and when you use it to apply changes to
multiple extensions, it works on only those changed attributes that can be
applied. For example, if you use Apply To on the General window after
you changed the person’s name, you do not re-assign the same name to
others, because the name is not an attribute that uses Apply to.
Accessing Extension Configuration
To access Extension Configuration, either select Extension
Configuration… from the Management menu, or click the Extension
Configuration icon on the Quick Access Toolbar.
Setting up Extensions
The Extension Configuration General window provides for creating
extensions and establishing their basic attributes.
