Trunks menu .
Configuring and Managing
Companies
Up to five companies can be config-
ured in the OpenCom 510. By de-
fault, one company with the name
“Company 1” is predefined. All con-
figuration settings, e.g. in the user
groups or in the trunk group config-
uration, apply to this predefined de-
fault company if not other company
has been selected.
Companies are set up and managed
in the
PBX Configuration: Compa-
nies menu:
■
A new company is created in this
menu using the command
New .
Each company can be given a
name up to 20 characters long.
This name is then displayed in all
configuration dialogue boxes in
which company-specific settings
can be defined.
■
In this menu a company can be
deleted again using the com-
mand
Delete . If a company is
deleted which is still used at
other places (in the user groups,
for example), the respective
configuration is changed to the
default company.
■
The name of the default com-
pany can be changed, but the
default company itself cannot
be deleted.
Assigning Users
For each user you must define the
company to which they belong. This
assignment determines, for exam-
ple, which company telephone book
the user has access to and which
company-specific configuration data
apply to them.
As the OpenCom 510 manages users
in groups, the assignment “user >
company” is also established this
way. The company to which each
user group belongs must be defined
for each group. A user group can
only belong to one company, i.e. not
to several. However, a company can
have several user groups. It is there-
fore possible, in the same way as in
the entire system, to allocate a range
of authorisation rights for the use
and configuration of features for
each company.
When setting up a new user group
(in the User Manager menu ), you
will find that the default company is
predefined; another company can
be assigned as long as no other com-
panies have been set up.
