Next, Frank considers the areas outside the Northeastern. United States to which
Primo employees make calls. The salespeople frequently tail the firm’s Canadian
distributors. WHIZ is the only company-approved method for these calls. Frank lists
the nine Canadian area codes that the salespeople call in the Area Code/Exchange
section of Table 5. He enters a 9 for the main pool in the Pool Number section and
the WHIZ access and account codes, with the required pauses, in the Other Digits
section.
Table 5 looks like this:

Frank has now set up tables to route long distance calls within New Jersey, to other
Northeastern states, and to Canada. The company’s cross-country WATS line pool
is the least expensive method for all other long distance calls his co-workers have
to make. So he wants the system to route 10- or 11-digit calls to all area codes that
aren’t included in other tables to the pools listed in Table 8, the Default Toll Table.
Frank’s first entry in the Pool Number section of Table 8 is 895, the cross-country WATS
line pool. The second least expensive method for these calls is WHIZ. Frank records
this as his second choice by entering a 9 for the main pool in the Pool Number sec-
tion and entering the required access code and account code digits and pauses in
the corresponding Other Digits section.
The Default Toll Table looks like this:
