Configuring the Alphabetic Directory
Alphabetic directory assistance enables a caller to find a subscriber using the phone keypad to spell the subscriber's
name. The system plays the name of the closest matching subscriber. If the system finds more than one match, it plays
each possibility until the caller selects one.
Subscribers can be listed in the system directory by selecting Include in alphabetic directory assistance on the
subscriber access options page. If the subscriber template has subscribers automatically listed in the directory, a
subscriber can clear Include in alphabetic directory assistance to be removed from the system directory.
To configure the alphabetic directory
