Delete an RCOS

Deleting an RCOS that is in use by mailboxes causes all of those mailboxes to be assigned the default (1) RCOS. A warning message is displayed to allow you to cancel the operation. If you are deleting the default RCOS, the mailboxes assigned to it will be assigned to the next available RCOS. You cannot delete the last remaining RCOS in the system; therefore, you cannot select all RCOS for deletion.

  • Absorption Table

    This table can contain up to 16 entries of up to 10 digits each. NPA must be a 3-digit number.

  • Exact Match Table

    This table can contain up to 100 25-digit entries.

  • System-wide RCOS settings

  • NPA/NXX

    The NPA table can contain all 999 possible 3-digit numbers (except "000"). Each 3-digit string can only be added once it is in the NPA table. For each NPA entry, you can define up to 999 NXX entries, using a similar table. Selecting an NPA in the NPA table will automatically fill the NXX table with the corresponding NXX entries. The NPA and NXX starting and ending digit positions must be digits from 0-25.
