Account Code Entry
Description
An account code is used to identify outgoing outside (CO) line calls for accounting and billing purposes.
Account codes are appended to SMDR call records (
1.20.1 Station Message Detail Recording Feature),
and have several uses. For example, a firm can use an account code for each client to determine which calls
were made for which client, and can submit a bill to the client according to the client's account code as
shown on the SMDR call record.
There are 4 methods of entering account codes, explained below. One method is assigned to each
extension through system programming (
Conditions
•
An account code can be stored in Memory Dialling (One-touch Dialling, Hot Line, Speed Dialling—
System/Personal, Call Forwarding (FWD) to Outside (CO) Line, etc.). In this case, the Account Code
feature number and specified account code must be entered after the Outside (CO) Line Access
number.
•
An extension user does not need to enter an account code for incoming outside (CO) line calls.
•
Even in Forced/Verify-All/Verify-Toll mode, emergency calls can be made without an account code (

Mode
Description
Option
An extension user can (but is not required to) enter a 4-digit account code
during a conversation or within 30 seconds after a conversation ends
when a record is needed.
Forced
An extension user must always enter a 4-digit account code within 5
seconds after seizing an outside (CO) line. This method ensures that
extension users will not forget to enter account codes.
Verify-All
An extension user must always enter a preprogrammed account code (
Account Code [310]) within 5 seconds after seizing an outside (CO) line.
If the entered code does not match any preprogrammed code, the user
will hear a reorder tone.
Verify-Toll
An extension user can enter a preprogrammed account code (
Code [310]) within 5 seconds after seizing an outside (CO) line to override
TRS (
1.8.2 Toll Restriction (TRS) Override by Account Code). Classes
of service (COSs) 3 through 5 will be changed temporarily to COS 2.
COSs 1 and 2 will not be affected. If the entered account code is also
registered as an extension password, the extension password feature will
be given priority. The COS of the corresponding extension will be applied.
