Account codes can be changed during a call. However, only the person
who entered the original account code can enter a different account code.
SMDR prints changed account codes as follows:
For optional or forced account code entry
without
a Forced Account
Code List, the call report prints the last account code entered.
For forced account code entry
with
a Forced Account Code List, the
call report prints the last valid account code entered. If the changed
account code is not valid, the report prints the original account code.
If a Forced Account Code List exists, you can check to see if an account
code is valid when entering or changing an account code by pressing
f 1 2 after entering the account code. If the account code is not
valid, you will hear a denial tone.
The Lucent Technologies Call Accounting Terminal uses less than 16 digits
for an account code. Refer to the device’s documentation to determine the
maximum digits supported.
You can program the Account Code Entry feature code on a button on a
system phone. It is recommended that you use a button with lights. (This
button can be used for optional Account Code Entry or Forced Account
Code Entry.)
