To call an entry on the Call List:
• Open the list and select the contact you would like to call and press the Info soft key. When the
Details screen displays, press the Dial soft key.
Searching and Saving with the Corporate Directory
Your system administrator may have enabled access to the Corporate Directory that resides on the call
server used by the entire facility. You can search for contacts in the corporate directory, view their
contact information, call them, and add them to your contact directory.
Searching the Corporate Directory
Corporate directory contacts are usually sorted by last name. When you select the Corporate Directory
option, the list displays and a search box opens.
To search for a contact in the Corporate Directory:
You can perform a quick search or an advanced search. A quick search allows you to search using the
contact’s last name (if the directory is alphabetized by last name) or first name (if the directory is
alphabetized by first name). An advanced search will search using any combination of the contact’s first
and last name, phone number, address, and title.
1 Navigate to the Contacts/Call Lists > Corporate Directory and press OK.
2 Do one of the following:
a To perform a quick search, enter the first few characters of the contact’s last name, and then
press the Submit soft key. The screen displays a list of contacts, starting with any successful
matches.
b To perform an advanced search, press the AdvFind soft key. From the Advanced Find screen,
enter your search criteria, and then press the Submit soft key. The screen displays any
successful matches.
3 To erase your search criteria and enter new criteria, press the Clear soft key.
Saving Corporate Directory Search Results
You can enable your handset to save Corporate Directory search results, and to remember the last
person you viewed in the directory. Whenever you re-display the Corporate Directory, the results of
your last search, or the last person you selected, will display. If you don’t enable your handset to save
search results, each time you access Corporate Directory, a blank search screen will display.
