Both Phone Management’s Phones and Base Settings tabs have a default set of columns that display information about the phones in your organization. The majority of these columns have filters.

If you have a large number of phones in your organization, you can use the column filters on the Phones and Base Settings tabs to help narrow down the the number if items in the display and make it easier to manage your phones.

You can add columns or you can remove columns to customize the display on both tabs by using the Customize feature.  See Customize the columns on the phone management tabs.

In addition to the available filters, the first column on each tab is a sortable further helping you to organize the display of phone information – just click the arrow to arrange the list in either ascending or descending order.
