Caller ID status
File:RepPhonesCallerID.png
Caller ID column
| Icon | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Green phone | Caller ID is ready / verified for that number | Click to open Caller ID details (/caller/callerid/<phone_id>/)
|
| Red phone | Caller ID is not set up yet | Use Activate New Caller ID / Caller ID setup so CallProof can verify the number |
Tooltip examples:
- Ready: Caller ID Ready for [number]
- Not ready: Setup Caller ID for [number]
Delete a phone
Steps
- Click the trash icon.
- Confirm delete when prompted.
- Success: Rep phone deleted successfully.
If delete fails
| Message / situation | What it means |
|---|---|
| Can not delete phone number | The phone is tied to call records — it cannot be removed |
| Not a manager | Delete is blocked; ask a manager |
| Rep phone deleted failed / not found | Phone already gone or could not be removed — refresh and retry |
Good to know
- If a company Twilio number was forwarding to this rep phone, CallProof clears that forward link when the phone is deleted.
Related: Default Phone on Company Directory Edit
- Open Company Directory → Edit the user.
- Find Default Phone.
- Choose one of the rep’s phones from the dropdown.
- Use Add/Edit if you need to add numbers first on Rep Phones.
- Save the user profile.
Default phone is used for features that need “this user’s phone” (for example some call/greeting flows).
Typical workflow
- Open Company Directory → open the rep’s phones (
/user_phones/<id>/). - Add Phone for cell and/or office.
- Set Default Phone on the user edit page.
- Verify Caller ID until the column shows green.
- Edit or delete numbers as the rep’s lines change.
Tips and important notes
- Browser title is Rep Phones; the page breadcrumb starts at Company Directory.
- These are rep phones, not customer account phones.
- Add/Edit share the same popup form (title switches between Add Rep Phone and Edit Rep Phone).
- Green Caller ID means the number is verified for outbound use; red means complete Caller ID activation.
- Managers delete phones; others can still add/edit depending on how your company uses Company Directory.
- Opening from Company Directory phone links may use a new browser tab.
Need help?
- No phone number found: click Add Phone and enter type, number, and country
- Cannot open another company’s rep: you can only manage your company’s users
- Cannot delete: confirm you are a manager and the phone has no call history blocking it
- Caller ID stays red: complete Activate New Caller ID / verification for that number
- Wrong default for calls/greetings: set Default Phone on Company Directory Edit
