Print the Extensions List

Generate a printable extension directory — number, display name, voicemail status, optionally device info. Hand to a new employee or post in a break room. Stop using a stale Excel sheet.

Steps

  1. Go to Reports → Print Extensions.
  2. Configure the report:
    • Sort By — Extension number, Display Name, etc.
    • Include columns — Extension, Name, Email, Department, Device, etc. Toggle what you want.
    • Filter — by department, by extension range.
  3. Click Print (or Generate PDF in some versions).
  4. Browser opens a print-friendly page — Ctrl+P to save as PDF or print.

Tips for a Useful Directory

  • Sort by department, then extension if you have department metadata in extension records (set via User Management).
  • Include cell phone column for "find me follow me" reference.
  • Hide voicemail PINs — never print these.
  • Generate from User Management instead if you need richer person-info (title, photo) — User Management has its own export/print.

Direct DB Query (alternative)

For a quick CSV with whatever columns you want:

SELECT u.extension, u.fname, u.lname, u.email, u.title, u.department
FROM userman_users u
ORDER BY u.department, u.extension;

(Schema varies by version — users table may also be in asterisk or freepbxsettings databases.)

Common Issues

  • Some extensions missing. Filter set, or those extensions don't have User Management records linked. Add them via User Management.
  • Long names truncate. Switch to landscape orientation in print dialog, or tighten font in the export.
  • Print dialog shows whole admin GUI. Click Print inside the report page (the report has a print-stylesheet) rather than browser File → Print.
