Introduction
Introduction to Centrex Management

The Centrex Management System gives you control of your Centrex stations without placing service orders with your local exchange carrier (LEC). This software allows you to enter requests to add new stations, to disconnect existing stations, and to change the features and service option assignments on existing stations. The Centrex Management System translates these requests into appropriate messages which are ultimately processed by the switch to make the changes, either on a priority or scheduled batch basis.
What is in this Reference Manual?

This Centrex Management System Reference Manual is a generic document. Your system may not have all of the choices or options described here. Questions should be referred to your System Administrator. This manual has been divided into four sections. Section one, Getting Started, provides step-by-step instructions for launching and closing the Centrex Management System. Information concerning basic window design as well as basic navigation instructions are also detailed in this section. Section two, Station Management, discusses various station functions, such as feature manipulation and on-line service order capabilities. Moving stations, adding new telephone numbers, group management and station templates are also discussed. Section three, Administration Tools, details Authorization Code manipulation. Section four, Common Functions, discusses the Main Application Window, Request tracking, Report requests and views, as well as sending and reading Mail. These functions are common to each of the applications two main folders; Station Management and Admin Tools.
Introduction
How to use this Reference Manual

This manual was designed to replace the Centrex Management System End User Handbook. Due to improvements in the on-line help provided with the GUI, much of the procedural information found in the End User Handbook was removed. This Centrex Management System Reference Manual serves as reference material in support of the on-line help text. It was designed to help you find the information you need quickly. For detailed information, refer to the on-line help. Throughout this Manual, supplementary information is provided to assist you in using the software. You will find this information accompanied by an icon displayed in the margins. Following is a reference for these icons:
Statements that are marked with the heading Getting There which specify the path with step-by-step instructions for accessing the associated window. The (arrow) signifies an alternate starting point. If the window currently displayed is the same as the alternate starting point, start following the instructions from this point. Statements that are marked with the heading Getting There Quick which specify the path with step-by-step instructions for accessing the associated window quickly.

CHAPTER 1
Getting Started
Installing the Centrex Management System

System Requirements for optimal performance
IBM Compatible PC
Processor - Pentium 200 MHz Operating System - Windows 95 Memory - 48MB Available Hard Disk Required: 30 Megabytes Modem - minimum 28,800 - V.42 (LAPM) and NMP (2-4) Error Corrections, V.42 bis & NMP 5 Data Compression Graphics Adaptor - 800 X 600 resolution, greater than 256 colors, small fonts CD-ROM Drive Mouse Color Video Display Monitor (800 X 600)
Installation Procedures
Refer to your LEC documentation for detailed installation instructions.
Starting the application

Starting the Application through the Web
If you have not had communication from your LEC about using CCRS on the Web, you may wish to contact them to find out if they provide web access, and what is the appropriate URL. If Web access is available, and you have launched CCRS, maneuvering through the application is the same on the web as it is when using a dial-up connection. You can use this reference manual for either method of working with CCRS.
Starting the Application Using a Dial-Up Connection

You must have established a dial-up connection to your LEC database server prior to starting the application.
Click the Windows Start button and point to Programs Point to the CCRS program group, and then click on the CCRS option. The
Your User ID and Password are assigned by your LEC. Refer to your reference material or contact your LEC System Administrator if you do not have this information. Centrex Management window and a System Logon dialog box will open.
Enter your User ID, Password, and server in the fields provided. This information is case sensitive.
Click the OK button.

Each time you start the application the system verifies your User ID and Password. It queries the database and retrieves all the associated information, e.g., your custids, your user preferences, telephone numbers associated with the active custid, and much more. This process may take a few seconds. When the process is complete a Broadcast Message window will display.
Closing the application

It is not necessary to close all the open application windows, prior to exiting the system. You should, however, schedule or save any activity.
Click the Window menu option from any open window. Click the Centrex Management window from the list of open windows. The
Main Application window moves to the front of your screen.
Click System, then click Exit. Follow the instructions on the screen.
Changing an Expired Password

When you log into the Centrex Management System, a warning message will be displayed notifying you when your password is due to expire. The warning message will be displayed just before the Broadcast Message dialog window is displayed. Upon receiving the expired password notification, you should change your password in the User Preferences dialog box. The expired password warning message will instruct you to select System>Preferences from the Main Application window menu bar to access the User Preferences dialog box. Once the User Preferences dialog box is displayed, click on the General folder and change your password in the password section. For detailed information on changing your password, refer to the Password section of the General Folder in the User Preferences chapter. If you do not change your password within the specified expiration period indicated in the warning message, the Password Expired dialog box will be displayed when you log into the Centrex Management System. The dialog box will be displayed just before the Broadcast Message dialog window is displayed, and it will inform you that your password has completely expired and you must choose a new one. At that time, you must use this dialog box to change your password in order to enter the Centrex Management System. After you create a new password, click the OK button to close the dialog box and proceed with entering the application. If you click the Exit button without creating a new password, the login process will fail and the application will exit.

CHAPTER 8
Group Management
You can use the Centrex Management application to gather telephone numbers and store them as unique groups. Use this database to make efficient changes to TNs and to manipulate and apply specific feature parameters to multiple stations. There are two types of groups available: Bulk and Admin (Administrative). Administrative groups are built based on your specifications. You may gather stations that share common variables based on accounting needs, departmental requirements, etc. These groups may be saved and retrieved as needed. They can be accessed through the Include in Station List dialog box and displayed in the Station List. Bulk Groups allow you to specify feature and function sets, then apply them to a series of stations. This functionality makes feature assignments easy and efficient. Bulk Groups may be saved and reused.
