Dial by Alias

Dial an internal alias to reach a station. Allows users to call a colleague directly by dialing their alias number, without knowing the technical extension.

How it works

The caller dials an alias number (e.g., 100, 200)
The system looks up the extension associated with that alias
The call is routed to the corresponding station
If the alias does not exist, the call follows the error output

Use cases

Simplified dialing for employees
Internal directory by short number
Routing by station number rather than technical extension

What you configure

Alias: The alias number to dial to reach the station

Examples

Dial 100 to reach the reception desk
Dial 201 to reach the sales department
