Restricting Outgoing calls

[KWessels]

We have found the need to restrict outgoing calls on a certain extension as the telephone system is being abused. We still need to be able to have a few people able to make outgoing calls from that extension. Is it possible to restrict outgoing calls with a password assigned to those who need to use the phone?

Thanks for your help.

Yes, create a 'restiction filter' that restricts outside dialing and apply to that set. Then under Passwords/COS create a 6-digit pswd and assign set filter and line filter to be used w/COS pswd. After this is done you can use FEATURE 68 + 6digit pswd at the restricted phone to override its programming.
Hope this helps.

Thanks DueE, would you be able to give me a step by step rundown of how to create a 'restriction filter' please?
