The General settings

The General settings dialog contains settings for the client running on this machine.

Telephone Number Prefix

Telephone Number Prefix	External phone numbers should be registered with the international prefix for the external monitoring functionality function properly. When listing the external numbers on the client, the Telephone Prefix can be used to remove the international prefix. The removal is only visual and the actual number is not changed. If the Telephone Number Prefix is used to remove the prefix, then the prefix is also removed from message templates generated in the switchboard.
Replace Telephone Number Prefix With	In countries with open phone number plans (like Sweden and Finland), a digit can be added to the number if the Telephone Prefix removes the international number. This way the numbers are displayed correct in the client. The Replace Prefix With should be set to 0 for Sweden and Finland.
Use Number Prefix in mail/sms template	Switchboard only. Use the number prefix replacement rules when switchboard creates a mail/sms message from template (the [N] parameter)
Default outgoing number prefix	This prefix will be added to all numbers called, except those that are in the local number interval(described below) or numbers that start with +,@, * or 0. Normally this is not necessary and should be left blank. The format should be a + followed by the international code, e.g. +298 for Faroese numbers, +45 for Danish numbers, +47 for Norwegian numbers, …
Local number interval	Numbers in this interval, will be considered local, and hence will not get a default outgoing number prefixed.
