Feature Prefixes

Feature prefixes can be found under Features Advanced - Feature Prefixes.

This is used to create a dialling code before a number to enable a feature like custom Caller Identification or Set Call Forward.

Click ‘new’ at the bottom right to create a new feature prefix.   Enter the new feature prefix number you wish to use. You can set a minimum and a maximum number of expected digits to follow. This could be useful, for example, by only allowing the call forward option to be set to the 4-digit internal Extension number of another Extension. Put in a description to help describe the purpose of the prefix code and then set the desired feature.

Default Feature Prefixes

There are some default feature prefixes, as follows:

Code	Usage
*71	Plus, dial your forward number - call forward on unconditional
*72	Plus, dial your forward number - call forward on busy
*73	Plus, dial your forward number - call forward on no answer
*74	Plus, dial your forward number - call forward on unregistered
141	Plus, the number you wish to call - Withhold
142	Plus, the number you wish to call - display your phone number

You can create your codes within a customer’s feature prefixes,prefixes and you can also override the standard default ones.
