Account Codes i-Series System
Account Codes
Account Codes are codes you enter that help keep track of outside calls. There are three types of Account Codes: Optional,
Forced and Verifiable.
Optional Account Codes
With optional codes, the Account Codes you enter are solely for categorizing your calls. For example, if you work in an account-
ing firm that must bill back customers for time on the phone, Optional Account Codes are for you.
Forced Account Codes
Forced Account Codes also let you categorize calls, but you must enter one before placing outgoing calls. If you don’t enter the
code, you can’t place the call. This ensures that calls don’t go out untracked.
Verifiable Account Codes
With Verifiable Account Codes, the system compares the user-dialed Account Code entered with a pre-programmed list of
Account Codes. If the user does not dial an Account Code or dials an invalid Accound Code, the system will not allow the call
to go through.
Check with your Communications Manager to find out if your system uses Account Codes -- and which codes you should enter.
Account Codes can be from 1-16 digits long, using 0-9 and #.
To enter an Account Code any time while on an outside call:
1. Press * + Account Code (1-16 digits) + *.
To enter an Account Code while placing an outside call:
1. Access trunk for outside call.
You can access a trunk by pressing a line key or by dialing a code. Refer to page “Outside Calls, Placing”
for more on placing outside calls.
2. Press * + Account Code (1-16 digits) + *.
3. Dial the number you want to call.
If you hear “stutter” dial tone after dialing the number, your system requires an ARS Authorization Code. Ask
your Communications Manager for your codes.
Alarm
You can use your extension like an alarm clock to remind you of appointments and important meetings. Your phone has two
types of alarms:
● Alarm 1 - which sounds only once at the preset time.
● Alarm 2 - which sounds every day at the preset time.
To set the alarm:
1. TALK + 827 + Alarm type (1 or 2).
2. Dial the alarm time (24-hour clock).
For example, for 1:15 PM dial 1315.
3. TALK to hang up.
To silence an alarm:
1. TALK twice.
To cancel an alarm:
1. TALK + 827 + Alarm type 1 or 2.
2. Dial 9999 + TALK to hang up.
