To assign the location prefix from the caller’s location on the Locations screen, complete the following steps:
Procedure
Go to the administration interface.
Enter change uniform-dialplan.
In the Insert Digits field, enter digits between 0-9 or enter an Ln string, where n is a digit between 1-11. The Ln entry accepts only the first n digits from the Prefix assigned to the calling party’s location on the Locations screen. The Ln entry is used for short-to-long mapping. For example, the Ln entry is used to convert a short number, such as 83529 to a long number, such as 1303-538-3529. However if you have more than one prefix assigned per location, use the Calltype Analysis screen.
Note:
If you are entering an Ln string, ensure that the Multiple Locations field is enabled on the system-parameters customer-options screen.
Press Enter to save your changes.
The system adds some or all the leading digits to the front of the dialed number as specified on the Uniform Dial Plan screen. The system then routes the call based on the analysis of the entire dialed string and the administration on the Dial Plan Parameters screen.
