Interactions for Abbreviated Dialing

Last Updated : Oct 30, 2012 |

This section provides information about how the Abbreviated Dialing feature interacts with other features on the system. Use this information to ensure that you receive the maximum benefits of Abbreviated Dialing in any feature configuration.

Last Number Dialed

The Last Number Dialed feature redials the same number a user just dialed. This happens even if the user accessed an abbreviated dialing list for the previous call. However, if the last dialed string includes any special characters, these characters are ignored by last-number-dialed call. Examples of special characters might be indefinite wait, mark, pause, suppress, wait and so on.

If the previously-called number is in an AD privileged list, and if you have restricted permission to dial the number because of the class of restriction, you cannot redial the number using Last Number Dialed. To redial the number, you have to access the AD privileged list again.

Remote Access

You can access the System, Group, and Enhanced Abbreviated Dialing lists administered on the Console Parameters screen through the Remote Access feature.
