LCR
LCR (Least Cost Routing) is a function of the PBX that enables the subscriber to automatically make calls using the most cost-effective phone service provider. The PBX determines the phone service provider to be used by the dialled phone number and the configured tariff tables.
*Note: Automatic LCR is not carried out for the entered emergency numbers (Public switched tel. networks > Emergency calls).
*Note: If a call is initiated via a targeted exchange line access, automatic LCR is not carried out.
