Note
The "%" shown above indicates a parameter to be entered when assigning a message at an individual
extension.
Up to seven "%"s can be stored for each message.
Conditions
•An extension user can select only one Absent Message at a time. The selected message is displayed at
the extension while on-hook.
•The caller must use a display proprietary telephone (PT) to see the Absent Message.

1.1.2 Account Code Entry
Description
An account code is used to identify outgoing CO line calls for accounting and billing purposes. The account
code is appended to the Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR) call record. 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 two methods of entering account codes explained below.
One of the methods is selected for each extension based on Class of Service (COS) programming.
Mode Description
Option An extension user can enter an account code, but is not required to.
Forced An extension user must always enter an account code before seizing
a CO line.
Conditions
•An account code can be stored in Memory Dialing (One-touch Dialing, for example).
•Account Button
A flexible button can be customized as the Account button. The Account button is used in place of the
feature number for entering an account code. This button is useful because it can be used at any time,
while feature number entry is allowed only when hearing a dial tone before seizing a CO line.
•Extension users can enter an account code at any time during a call, including after the call has been
disconnected and a reorder tone is heard. However, if an account code is entered after there is no longer
a reorder tone, the call will not be stored in the SMDR record.
•If an account code is entered more than once, the code entered last is logged in the SMDR.
•Even in Forced mode, emergency numbers can be dialed without an account code. (® 5.1.2 Emergency
Call)
•Proprietary telephone (PT) users can also enter an account code for incoming CO line calls during a
conversation.
•Verification Code Entry
To identify who made a CO line call for accounting and billing purposes, a verification code can be used.
This code can be used at any extension. (® 19.1.1 Verification Code Entry)

1.1.3 ARS (Automatic Route Selection)
Description
Different telephone carriers charge different rates for calls placed to different areas. Your PBX may use different
telephone carriers to make calls to different areas in an effort to reduce costs.
Automatic Route Selection (ARS) is a feature which automatically selects different carriers each time a CO
line call is made. In order to use ARS effectively, various ARS-related tables must be preprogrammed to tell
the PBX which calls should be placed using which carriers, during which time of day.
If you do not activate ARS, if ARS is bypassed, or if you do not use multiple carriers, CO line calls will be
connected via the carrier contracted for each line (default carrier).

[Programming Procedures]
1. ARS Mode
ARS is turned on by selecting under which circumstances it operates – either when an extension user
makes a call using the Idle Line Access method, or when any CO Line Access method is used (® 3.1.16 CO
Line Access). ARS can also be turned off for the entire system.
® 10.1 [8-1] System Setting— ARS Mode
® [320] ARS Mode
2. Leading Number Exception Table
Once ARS is activated, store the telephone numbers that will bypass ARS in the Leading Number Exception
Table.
Note that the first few digits (leading number) of a telephone number, such as an area code or local
exchange, can also be stored, so that all calls to those areas or exchanges are exempted from ARS. Also

1.1.3 ARS (Automatic Route Selection)

note that the CO Line Access number is always ignored by ARS and does not need to be programmed
here.
Calls that are exempt from ARS are connected to the user-selected line, via the default carrier for that line.

In this example:
555, 556, and 567 are local exchanges. (555-XXXX, 556-XXXX, 567-XXXX)
These calls can be made using any carrier, and are therefore exempt from ARS.
3. Leading Number Table
Next, store the leading numbers of telephone numbers that should be routed by ARS, and assign a Routing
Plan to each leading number that will control how calls containing these leading numbers are routed.
When an extension user dials a number which contains a leading number stored in the ARS Leading
Number Table, the call will be routed the corresponding Routing Plan assigned here. Note that the CO
Line Access number is always ignored by ARS and does not need to be programmed here.
Before programming the details of each Routing Plan (explained below), you can simply assign here the
same Routing Plan number to all the different leading numbers which will be routed the same way.
If a dialed number matches two or more leading numbers stored in the ARS Leading Number Table, the
lowest numbered location will have priority.

Additional Number of Digits
In order for calls to be made using the desired carrier, telephone numbers dialed by extension users must
be modified to meet the criteria required by the carrier. (Refer to 5. Carrier Table.) This modification usually
involves removing digits and adding access codes to the beginning of the dialed number.
In situations where a preprogrammed number (such as an Itemized Billing Code) must be added
automatically after the telephone number that was dialed by the extension user, set the Additional Number
of Digits to a value greater than 0.
4. Routing Plan
18 Feature Manual Document Version 2009-12
1.1.3 ARS (Automatic Route Selection)

Since the preferred carrier may vary depending on the time of day, you can create an ARS-specific time
table and break each day of the week into different time blocks. A different carrier can then be assigned
to each time block.
Routing Plan Time Table: For each Routing Plan, a different carrier can be assigned for each time of day
and each day of the week. Each day can have up to four programmable time blocks.
Routing Plan Priority: For each Routing Plan, a different carrier can be assigned a different priority for
each time of day. Generally, the carrier assigned to priority 1 will be used, however, if the CO lines assigned
to this carrier are busy, a different available carrier will be used according to priority level.
