Telephone number support

Phone number support/version info

From ProCall version 8.3.0 with add-on ProCall Voice Services 2310

3-digit extensions are supported by default.
Support for 4-digit numbers is generally possible, but must be checked on a case-by-case basis.

The extensions -110, -112, -115 must not be set up as internal extensions, as these special and emergency numbers are sent directly to the exchange when dialed internally.
If these extensions are to be accessible from outside, they can be assigned to a group as a second number.

Up to ProCall versions <8.3

ProCall Voice Services support one dialing code with a 2-digit number range (e.g. +49 8151 36856 00-99) or individual numbers if they are in a closed block (consecutive numbers). Extensions 1 to 9 cannot be assigned to any user or group. A central dial-in number, if present, can be assigned to the IVR system and to a group.
