Speed Dial Config on VVX601

[Baffled2019]

In December we upgraded our phones to Polycom VVX601 phones.  We were given access to an online program which allows us to manage our phone system.  One of the items we're having difficulty with is Speed Dial.  I enter the contact information into the online program, ie contact name, number, speed dial assigned (01) and I should be able to dial #01 and see the contact name, however, the only information that displays is the speed dial number assigned #01.  I've been trying to rectify this problem with the vendor for the last 2 months and am getting nowhere.  Can someone tell me 1) Is this option available and 2) how do we fix it? I'm attaching screen shots of the program we are using.
