Adding contact name to external number

 

Having multiple call diversion numbers can become tricky to manage. The Phonebook feature of the PBX can be used to give the external number a contact name on the PBX call flow page.

To do this, click the Phonebook setting icon on the PBX tab of the customer portal, and then add the contact name and their number.
Important: For this to work, the number needs to be entered in E164 format
