2 - 20 Account Code – Forced/Verified/Unverified
Operator Notification
To prevent Account Code abuse, the system can notify the operator each time an Account Code
violation occurs (PRG: 20-13-20). This happens if the user fails to enter an Account Code (if Forced) or
enters a Verified Account Code that is not in the list. The notification is an automatic Intercom call to the
attendant and a
RESTRICT message in the operator’s display. (If the attendant fails to enter a valid
Account Code, the system drops the call.)
Account Codes for Incoming Calls
The system can control extension user ability to enter Account Codes for incoming calls. When this
option is enabled, a user can dial

while on an incoming call, enter an Account Code, and then dial

to
return to their caller. If the option is disabled, any digit the user dials after answering an incoming call
outdials on the connected trunk.
Hiding Account Codes
Account Codes can be optionally hidden from a telephone display. This prevents, for example, an
unauthorized co-worker from obtaining a Verified Account Code by watching the display and making
note of the digits that dial out. When hidden, the Account Code digits show as an

on the telephone
display.
Account Code Capacity
Account Codes print along with the other call data on the SMDR record after the call completes. Account
Codes can have 1~16 digits using 0~9 and
#
. Verified Account Codes can have from 3~16 digits.
Redialed Numbers Do Not Contain Account Codes
When using the Last Number Redial, Save or Repeat Dial features, the system does not retain Account
Code information. If any number is redialed with these features, the user must enter an Account Code.
 If a user enters

12345

203 926 5400

67890

, if the Last Number Redial feature is used, the system dials
the number as 203 926 5400

67890

. The

67890

is not treated as an Account Code.
Conditions

If a user enters a code that exceeds 16 digits, the system ignores it.

If the system has Account Codes disabled, the digits dialed (e.g.,

1234

) appear on the
SMDR report as part of the number dialed.

If using Forced Account Code with single line telephone you need a VRS to get the prompts
to enter the Forced Account Code.
