Telephone directory + Speed calls - Mitel 3300

[Wolfmaster74]

Ok so I have an excell sheet with 12000 names and numbers and I want to add them to the telephone directory so users can access these from there handsets,

I figured out you have to add the number first as a speedcall before it will allow you to enter it into the telephone directory, that parts fine, i create my import sheet update all my records and go to import the 12000 speedcalls but the problem i face is it gets to 1000 and then says its full is this a system limitation or is there a better way of doing what i what i want to achieve.

so my way of doing it sofar is :  Company A 02081237987

So I would add system speed call 10001 - 02081237987
Telephone directory add name : Company A Number : 10001

Is this the correct way of doint it assing the external number to a speed call and then set a tlephone directoy for that nam e to that speed call number .

I need to add 12000 records !

You don't need speed dials to be able to put external number in the telephone directory.
The number just has to be dialable.
So if the company has a number of 02081237987 you need to be sure to include the ARS access code.
In the US it's typically 9.   Other countries my use a 0.   But was ever you use it needs to be included in the number in the TelDir.
An example may be 917005554141 where 9 is the outside access number.
