The extension name and extension number are set in the system programming. Use manager 'e' and change them in the station view. If you are swapping people around and want them to keep their extension numbers and names, you should re-patch the cables feeding to the wall sockets rather than change the programming (if you can).

What are you using to program.

PT Programming or you are using a PC Tool?

Did you save after setting names?

Hi Amy, you can change the name for an extension, but it will change the name for the extension for all the phones.

It is best to do programming on a T7316, M7310, or an M7324

1. Feature **23646
2. Password: 266344
>>>your password may have been changed by your phone company. contact them for the password.
3. Scroll to General Admin
4. Go to Names
5. Select Set Names
6. Enter in the DN of the extension you would like to change
7. Use the dial pad to change the extension.
8. Press Rls when finished (handset with arrow facing down)

Changing the name and extension number can be done through system admin programming from a phone extension allowed by the class of service assigned to that extension by the phone system installer. Typically the attendant phone is allowed this ability. From the programming phone press **1234(1234 is the default password) to access programming. Once in programming dial 003 for extension numbering then press . Enter the current extension number of the phone you want to change followed by the new extension number then press . Lift the handset to end programming. Access programming again by pressing **1234. Dial 004 for extension name programming then press . Enter the new extension number you programmed then enter the name for the extension. Press then lift handset to end programming.

It is possible that your phone has not been assigned an extension number, in that case system installer programming would need to be accessed to assign the port an extension number. The port number the phone is connected to would have to be determined. This could require tracking the wiring back to where it is connected into the phone system. If this is the case I advise calling a qualified service technician.

Is that a name or a number?

Extension numbering and name are in system programming and that's a function of whatever system you have, not the phone. Generally, it's in system program 003 and 004 for number and name respectively.

In number change, most Pana systems require you to change one extension to a number not being used. In a TA-x24, the numbers are still assigned in software to 124, so you would change 109 to something out of the universe like 133, then change 122 to 109 and 133 to 122 :-)

If you have voice mail you may have to manually assign it via the owner's mailbox 999 or from the maintenance console or hyperterm.

If you are using this phone on a Panasonic KX-TDA 30/100/200/600 system. From the Switcboard / Main telephone or Managers phone with the handset on the cradle/hook press Program * * or Program * # followed by the system password ( default is 1234). Now press 004 and then ENTER. Enter the extension number you want to change. Now enter the name (the same way as texting on a cellphone) To save the changes press AUTO DIAL / STORE. To go to the next extension press NEXT on the screen. When you are done lift the handset and put it down to exit program mode.
PLEASE rate/vote this answer if it was helpfull.
THANK YOU

If by ID you mean name, it's done in SYSTEM programming. That location changes by system model number, but usually it's in either 004 or 604.

If you mean something else, please comment back.
