-The '''Room Management System (RMS)''' is a licensed feature which allows you to specify PBX extensions as hotel guest room extensions, and manage the rooms associated with them.  The application is found under Applications->Room Mgmt.

+Branch Offices provide a powerful tool for interconnecting PBX Systems. Through Branch Offices you can create a network of systems where dialing phones on remote systems is as easy as dialing local extensions. You can route calls inbound to a destination on any branched PBX, and outbound through the trunks of other systems networked in this way. Branch office extensions can even participate in ring groups.
