Does anyone, or Avaya have the documentation/Best Practices to the "name" field. I have several-networked S87xx's with "Integrated Directory." I want to lead the "name" field, which I do not want to appear in the "Directory" with a leading *. I am getting mixed results. I am separating names/words with blanks, the "-" and ",” I have hyphenated first and last names. I have more then two words in the field. Any help would be appreciated.

prior to CM 4 you could hide names and keep them hidden from the directory search with more characters than ~~. You can look this up under integrated directory in the Avaya Feature Description Documentation.
In cm4 and newer loads this is under "administerable language displays" in the docs.
Enhancements for Communication Manager 4.0
Communication Manager 4.0 has enhanced the Integrated Directory feature. This Integrated Directory feature now provides the ability to look up names with international characters (Latin letter with a diacritic) when Display Character Set = Roman.
Another enhancement is the ability to search on names using Cyrillic characters (Display Character Set = Cyrillic or Ukrainian).
The following are the changes to Integrated Directory feature as a result of these changes:
- The ability to hide names (Display Character Set = Roman) can only be accomplished if the name begins with two tildes. Before Communication Manager 4.0, other symbols might have been used to hide names. This is no longer supported. If your site was using a symbol other then the tilde to hide names, the recommended upgrade procedure is to export such names to a CSV file. You must do a global change on the symbol you used replacing such symbol with two tildes. After making the change, import the data back to your Communication Manager server.
- Before Communication Manager 4.0, the asterisk was one character that when used as a wild card to skip the comma in Integrated Directory names such as "Doe, John." The comma is now supported on button 1 and so the one key should
be pressed rather then the asterisk key when you want to move past the comma in any Integrated Directory name.

(SA7578) - Integrated Directory Service over DCS? y
This is a special application that must be paid for and turned on in each
switch, by Avaya with new RFA license files.
You will need the SA turned on in the RFA license for each switch. The Directory between each switch using IDS + will be shared. After getting the Special Application for IDS + turned on, it is easily programmed on the isdn signalling
groups between the switches
