Last Updated 8 years ago
This guide explains how to change your call routing preferences. Each user who has been assigned a virtual telephone extension, can change it's call routing behaviour at anytime from with-in the Self-Service User Portal web application. You can select which physical phone should ring when someone call's your extension, or you can alternatively select for your mobile phone or other number to be called instead. You may also choose to have a voicemail only service where all calls route to voicemail and not ring any device at all.
- First login into the Self-Service User Portal with your TC account details.
- Click the Telephones > Edit Extension Settings from the menu on the left. (If you don't see this option in the menu; contact I.T services to check your phone extension has been allocated correctly).

- From here you can select the physical phone you wish to configure/set as the phone that should ring when somebody calls your extension. Click the blue Save all changes button to update the phone system with your new preferences. This will take effect within 2-3 mins on making the change.
