Furthermore, an account code can be:
- defined: in this case, it is composed exclusively of digits (e.g. "987654")
- partially defined: in this case, it is composed of digits and asterisks (e.g.: "1345*****"), the asterisks
represent the variable part ; the number of digits in the account code entered must be equal to the
number of digits of the defined and asterisk part
- variable: in this case, it is composed exclusively of asterisks ; the number of digits in the account
code entered must be equal to the number of asterisks.
When an account code is entered, the system checks first of all, whether it exists as a "defined" code,
if not, a "partially defined" code, and finally as a "variable" code.
The installer can configure a code for activating the "Account Code" service in the main numbering
plan. The "Base" field can be either:
- empty: in this case, the user enters the code associated with the client account himself
- 4 digits long, 0000 to 9999: in this case, the base refers to an account code configured in the ac-
count code table. The four digits of the base can correspond either to the 4 digits of a defined ac-
count code or to a variable code of 4 asterisks.
Substitution
This makes it possible to authorize a user to make an external call from any station in the installation,
even barred or locked, as if he were making the call from his own station.
Substitution is a particular account code case for which:
- the user's identity is required
- barring and traffic sharing link categories are those of the "guest"
- the password may be required.
