Is there a way to send calls out a TIE T1 trunk without having to dial an access code first?

We have a block of 4000 numbers. The problem is between two systems (Mitel sx-200 and Nortel Opt. 81c), the people being moved to the Mitel are not in one range of numbers (such as 3300-3400 or something). Instead, they have extentions in both the 3xxx range *AND* 4xxx range, as do people on the Nortel. in the 2000 range, I can just use "2" as an access code, and re-insert it when the call gets sent to the mother PBX (Nortel). However, a Mitel phone may be extention 3456, while extention 3457 is on the Nortel.

At first, an easy solution would be to use the Vacant Number rerouting to re-route the call over the TIE line, but it it seems this cannot be done, as the origional dialed digits are not retained. Is there another way to do this? I'm not worried about the same call being bounced between the two systems, as I can just disable tromboning on the Nortel side.

Also, On the Nortel side, sending single extentions over a trunk is not a problem, without the use of access codes.

So if anyone can point me to the location in the manual where it says how to do something like this, It would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I think you could put 3457 in form 26 as a leading digit. F9, digits to expect is none, digitss to follow 0. I think form 26 will only except a limited amount of entries,200 maybe. Hope this helps

In sx 2000 this can be done . In 200 I don't know but maybe is posible too :First do what DrPbx says than open the ARS form and type at leading digits 3 (not 3457 ) and you'll see the 457 in the first line . Complete the form with the others line with digits to follow needed (like 567 for instance ) with the others fields like the fields in the first line (0 at number of digits to follow and the same route number and type).
The only limitation is at digit blocks not at route numbers ,( because is the same route). In form "Dimension And Feature Display" (in the Sistem Forms) you'll see the max available digits block and number of digit blocks used- you should check this one from time to time at ading ARS.
