A.3.3 Locking Agents' Phones' Alphabetical Keys
Note: Only applies to the 405HD model.
This feature lets call center network administrators lock agents' phones' alphabetical (non-
numerical) keys so that only numerical keys are available to them. This feature provides call
centers the option to limit agents to work-specific tasks. The feature reduces private activity
on the part of agents. Agents cannot, for example, add contacts to a personal directory.
When this feature is enabled, agents can only use numbers. Only two menus are available
in agents' phone screens:
Status
Administration
To lock alphabetical keys using configuration file:
Use the table as reference.
