Each task description contains the following information:
A brief description of the task
Guidelines for planning the change
A task checklist that includes references to other system reference guides 
for additional information, if needed
Programming instructions that contain summary programming procedures 
for programming from the console and from a PC with SPM
The task descriptions fall loosely into the following categories:
System tasks (setting system date and time; backing up the system)
Extensions (adding, moving, or removing an extension; changing calling 
restrictions)
Lines (adding and removing)
Operator consoles (adding a DLC or QCC operator position and adding 
operator features)
Auxiliary equipment connections
Group assignments (calling groups, Allowed Lists, Disallowed Lists, Group 
Coverage, and Night Service with Group Assignment)
Labels (changing displays for Extension Directory, trunks, Posted 
Messages, and calling groups)
To perform a task, follow these general steps:
1.
Review the entire task description.
2.
Obtain the system planning form(s) noted in the task description.
3.
Using the planning guidelines in the task description, plan the changes and 
record them on the planning form(s). For more information, you may want 
to refer to the feature description in the 
Feature Reference
 or the 
appropriate section in
 System Programming.
NOTE:
You should become familiar with the detailed instructions in 
System 
Programming 
before you use the summary programming 
instructions provided in the task descriptions.
4.
Program the changes using either the detailed, step-by-step programming 
procedure in 
System Programming
 or the summary programming 
instructions that follow the task list. You can photocopy the task list and use 
it to check off tasks as you complete them.
