Code Description
Phone number The phone number(s), if any, routed to this user. If a number has not yet been assigned, see Change Phone Number Destination.
Extension The dialable extension the user can be reached at on the account. This field is required.
Caller ID

The phone number and name sent with outbound calls from this user which is displayed on the phone of the person being called. Users can choose the main account number, their phone number, or choose None to not send out any caller ID at all. This field is required.

It is important to choose a number here, even if you choose to disable caller ID (below). If this field is set to None, outbound calls—even to 911—will be sent out as Anonymous, and the carrier may reject the call.

Enable Caller ID This toggle determines if the caller ID name is or is not sent with outbound calls. This setting can also be managed by star code.
  • On: Caller ID will be sent on all outbound calls.
  • Off: Caller ID will be sent as BLOCKED . The phone number selected in the Caller ID field will still be sent with calls to 911.

Call Screening

Call Screening can help block unwanted calls from reaching you, and you can decide what happens to the calls you turn away. Are they hung up on automatically, or do they hear a message first? Do you forward them to another number, or do you send them to your voicemail?

Choose how calls from anonymous numbers, toll-free numbers, and other callers will be handled. For each category, choose an action (behavior) from the menu. The options for each category are Allow, Allow with priority ring, Block, Block with message, Forward, and Voicemail. See Call Screening for more information.
