  • 1.  Forwarding to Private/Personal Number

    Forwarding to Private/Personal Number not working.

    Forwarding to Internal Users/DID is working only. Anyone knows what can be the issue?

    Hi Ajay,

    This older thread may help as a reference. In that case, the transfer-to-number failure ended up being related to the site being used, and the advice was to check whether the site/trunk could place outbound calls, along with the trunk/carrier settings. Since your forwarding works for internal/DID but not for private numbers, this may be worth checking here as well.

    https://community.genesys.com/discussion/transfer-to-number-failing

    Also worth confirming the number format being used. External transfers/forwarding typically require numbers in E.164 format (e.g. +614xxxxxxxx for AU mobile numbers), otherwise the dial plan may not route correctly.

    Additionally, this Resource Center article mentions that call forwarding will not work while the user is On Queue, and that going On Queue automatically disables forwarding, so that is another thing to check depending on how this is being used:

    Hope this helps.

    From the old Discussion I can see the pending thing can be New Site generation.  Under that do I need to do any special settings to achieve this?

    Hi Ajay,

    I have not set this up myself, but the articles below might help:

    These cover the site setup and outbound routing configuration.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Ajay,

    I can suggest to use simulate the call feature which will help you to see what is the issue while forwarding the call to Personal number.

    Hope this helps.
