I am dialing from
Use the I am dialing from list box to save different sets of dialing properties. You 
can use I am dialing from when you have a computer (such as a laptop) that you use 
at different locations. You can save the settings for the different locations under 
different names in the I am dialing from list box. You can then quickly change to 
the new settings when you switch locations.
For example, you may have a laptop computer that you use at both the north and 
south locations. If the north and south locations have different dialing requirements 
(such as call waiting in the north but not in the south), you can set up two different 
sets of dialing properties in the I am dialing from list box. Then, when you switch 
locations, you can change the dialing properties by changing the name that appears 
in the I am dialing from list box.
Creating a new location
When you create a new location, you are creating the name that is used to access the 
new set of dialing properties. After you create the location, any changes made to

A dialog box appears confirming that a new location was created.
2. Select the text in the I am dialing from list box.

call (to the same area code) or a long distance call.
To enter an area code:
1. Select the characters in the Area Code box and type the area code.
In some locations, the area code must always be added when dialing a telephone 
number. To make Enterprise Edge Personal Call Manager include the area code,

box.
Dialing Rules
In some locations, calls within the same area code are considered long distance 
calls. These calls require the country code and area code (e.g. 1-403) to be added to 
the front of the telephone number before they are dialed.
The Dialing Rules feature allows you to define the prefixes (e.g. 222
-xxxx) that are 
long distance calls in your area code.
