Reserved Extensions

Reserved Extensions

The customer administrator can reserve extensions for a user or a device ID. The reservation applies when automatic selection is specified for the department. A common use case for reserving an extension is for management staff. Associates can reach a manager without looking up the extension.
The process of reserving an extension is done when defining extensions. In Figure 18 the user Mary Johnson will have a reserved extension in the Manager department. Mary Johnson can be identified in the var_Location parameter in the Zebra Voice Client XML file or by leveraging the credentials passed through a connection to the customer’s identity management.
