Overriding call restrictions
You can use authorization codes to enable callers to override a station’s calling
privileges. For example, you can give a supervisor an authorization code so they
can make calls from a phone that is usually restricted for these calls. Since each
authorization code has its own COR, the system uses the COR assigned to the
authorization code (and FRL assigned to the COR) to override the privileges
associated with the employee’s phone.
Note that authorization codes do not override dialed strings that are denied. For
example, if your ARS tables restrict users from placing calls to Colombia, a caller
cannot override the restriction with an authorization code.
Before you start
Verify that the Authorization Codes field on the System Parameters Customer
Options screen is set to
y.
!
SECURITY ALERT:
You should make authorization codes as long as possible to increase the
level of security. You can set the length of authorization codes on the
Feature-Related System Parameters screen.
