Easy isn't what I'm after.  I was hoping for planning worksheets. 
Something to go over with a customer (I know I said this was for my 
personal system but that is the first step).  How many extensions/ 
phones/ softphones, and what their /numeric/ extension will be.  An IVR 
plan and the text that goes with it, voice-mail handling and mailboxes, etc.

This type of stuff.

So from the minimal number of responses -- yours :-) -- I'm going to 
guesstimate no one has anything like this at all or that they can or are 
able/willing to share.

Out comes the notepad and the thinking cap.  /-|


Cheers,
Rod
