Overview

If calls to a call center's alternate number are not displaying the correct caller ID, it is possible that your alternate number configuration was not done properly. If you wish to fix this or update the call center's Alternate Number configuration, you can modify its name, phone number, caller ID, and other information through Broadcloud's Admin Portal. This article describes the steps to accomplish this.

Testing

Once the changes have been saved, the Alternate Number details and configuration will be updated. To verify this, repeat steps 2 to 8. The values that were previously entered should be displayed. If the configuration was updated because the Caller ID was incorrect, calls to the alternate number should display the correct caller ID to the agents receiving the call.
