Multi-Company Variant Configuring the Multi-Company Variant Only when this package has been activated are the fields required to configure the multi-company variant available in the other menus of the Web console, for example in the User Manager: User groups menu or in the PBX Configuration: Trunks menu. 17.1.2 Configuring and Managing Companies Up to five companies can be configured in the OpenCom 510. By default, one company with the name "Company 1" is predefined. All configuration settings, e.g. in the user groups or in the trunk group configuration, apply to this predefined default company if not other company has been selected. Companies are set up and managed in the PBX Configuration: Companies menu: ■ A new company is created in this menu using the command New. Each company can be given a name up to 20 characters long. This name is then displayed in all configuration dialogue boxes in which company-specific settings can be defined. ■ In this menu a company can be deleted again using the command Delete. If a company is deleted which is still used at other places (in the user groups, for example), the respective configuration is changed to the default company. ■ The name of the default company can be changed, but the default company itself cannot be deleted. 17.1.3 Assigning Users For each user you must define the company to which they belong. This assignment determines, for example, which company telephone book the user has access to and which company-specific configuration data apply to them. As the OpenCom 510 manages users in groups, the assignment "user > company" is also established this way. The company to which each user group belongs must be defined for each group. A user group can only belong to one company, i.e. not to several. However, a company can have several user groups. It is therefore possible, in the same way as in the entire system, to allocate a range of authorisation rights for the use and configuration of features for each company. 179

Multi-Company Variant
Configuring the Multi-Company Variant
179
Only when this package has been activated are the fields required to configure the
multi-company variant available in the other menus of the Web console, for
example in the
User Manager: User groups
menu or in the
PBX Configuration:
Trunks menu
.
17.1.2
Configuring and Managing Companies
Up to five companies can be configured in the OpenCom 510. By default, one
company with the name “Company 1” is predefined. All configuration settings, e.g.
in the user groups or in the trunk group configuration, apply to this predefined
default company if not other company has been selected.
Companies are set up and managed in the
PBX Configuration: Companies
menu:
A new company is created in this menu using the command
New
. Each
company can be given a name up to 20 characters long. This name is then dis-
played in all configuration dialogue boxes in which company-specific settings
can be defined.
In this menu a company can be deleted again using the command
Delete
. If a
company is deleted which is still used at other places (in the user groups, for
example), the respective configuration is changed to the default company.
The name of the default company can be changed, but the default company
itself cannot be deleted.
17.1.3
Assigning Users
For each user you must define the company to which they belong. This
assignment determines, for example, which company telephone book the user
has access to and which company-specific configuration data apply to them.
As the OpenCom 510 manages users in groups, the assignment “user > company”
is also established this way. The company to which each user group belongs must
be defined for each group. A user group can only belong to one company, i.e. not
to several. However, a company can have several user groups. It is therefore pos-
sible, in the same way as in the entire system, to allocate a range of authorisation
rights for the use and configuration of features for each company.
