Validate Account Number Specifies that the account number should be validated by 
GMS before the call can connect. If you configure the 
system to validate the account number, calls placed 
without a valid account number are not completed. If you 
do not configure the system to validate account numbers, 
calls are completed regardless of whether the account 
number is valid. Account numbers are set up in GMS by 
the GMS administrator.
Validated account numbers remain active for five minutes. 
During that time, you can add other participants to a call. 
At the end of that time, you must reenter the account 
number to add participants. If you attempt to add 
participants with an invalid account number, the call in 
progress is disconnected.
