An empty CDB is created by selecting New.
The CDB generated in this manner has no cards inserted, i.e., the card configuration must be generated under Cards. Only then do station and line ports become visible in the corresponding dialog boxes.
To upload the customer database from the PC to the communication system, the card configuration in the Software settings (System status | System-wide) must match the actual hardware plugged into the system. If you require an actual status of the hardware, trunks, or extensions, the customer database must be downloaded from the communication system to the PC.
If you upload an automatically created customer database, you must reset the communication system.  

Customer data and system-wide  
Selecting New from the File menu opens a wizard that allows you to create a new customer database automatically.
You can enter customer-specific information in the Customer data dialog box, which appears when you select this item.
You can define system-specific information in the System-wide dialog box, which appears when you click the Next button.
