Account Code Calls
Account Code Calls
Entered before or after a call, Account Codes can be used for a variety of reasons including billing,
tracking, and line restriction applications. Account Codes are recorded by the system and can, along
with the details of the calls, be printed on a Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR) report.
Forced Account Codes (Verified/Non-Verified)
Some applications require that you enter a Forced Account Code before dialling a telephone number.
There are Verified and Non-Verified Account Codes. If the system is set for Verified Account Codes,
you must enter specific verified codes or the call does not execute. Verified Account Codes are
established in system programming or by designated stations.
You can bypass Forced Account Code requirements with three emergency numbers, including 911.
See your System Administrator for these numbers.
1. Access an Exchange Line.
2. Enter the Forced Account Code.
3. Dial a telephone number.
Voluntary Account Codes (Verified/Non-Verified)
Voluntary Account Codes are optional and are used to track calls for client billing purposes. They can
be entered after accessing an Exchange Line or during a call. An exception is a code which is required
to change the Toll Restriction classification of your station. This voluntary code gives you access to
telephone numbers outside your usual dialling area and must be entered prior to dialling the telephone
number. For example, if your station is restricted to local area calls, you can make out-of-state calls by
using a Voluntary Account Code set in system programming.
18
You hear dial tone after accessing the line.
If you used LCR, you will not hear dial tone.
Note
Dial tone stops after entering the first digit. If the
account Code is valid, you hear dial tone again. If the
code is invalid, you hear a busy tone.
