Phones
In Phones, you may view the entire phone list for your account including Nextel
phone number, Member Name, Activation Status and Private ID Number. The
Member Name is the name used to login to nextel.com. Activation Status
designates whether or not the phone has been registered with nextel.com and
whether or not the user has completed the login from their phone. Those phones
that have completed registration and login will appear at the top of the phone
list.
Templates
A template is an Account Administrator-defined phone list (Speed Dial or
Private ID) that is assigned to a group of phones. Often referred to as a “master
list”, this template will occupy certain positions of a phone list. For example, an
Account Administrator for the Marketing Department creates a template for the
30-employee group and decides the template will occupy positions 71-100 on
each employee’s phone. The Administrator then “assigns” or sends the template
to the phones in the department. When an employee accepts the template, it will
overwrite information stored in positions 71-100. Employees cannot edit,
change, delete or modify information stored in the positions occupied by a
template.
USER TIP:
To avoid loss of information, individual users should be
notified in advance which list positions a template will
occupy.
NOTE: You may only send template data to phones that have been reg-
istered on nextel.com.
