Area Code Band Table (Long Distance Calls)
Description:
The system compares the long distance calls that do not match entries in zone call band
tables to entries that you have made in area code band tables. Area code band tables are
the third priority level of costing for long distance calls. Area code band tables 1–7 are
associated with call rate costing tables 11–17. Use area code band tables to cost calls
based upon the area code of the called number. Assign any or all area codes nnn
(200–999) to one of seven different bands. Group area codes into bands based on
frequently called areas, distance from the caller, or any other desired category.
Example: Assign area codes 703 and 804 to area code band table 1. Assign area code
415 to area code band table 7. Calls made to numbers such as 1-703-nnn-nnnn and
1-804-nnn-nnnn are costed with values assigned to call rate table 11. Calls made to
numbers such as 1-415-nnn-nnnn are costed with values assigned to call rate table 17.
