Definition
Telephone number, consisting of area code and number, but no country code.
This is the first telephone number for the main address.
If the telephone number consists of a company number and a private extension, then you must enter the extension in the Extension field.
Use
Telephone number as dialled from within the same country.
Procedure
Enter the telephone number.
The following rules apply for the format of telephone and fax numbers:
- The length of the entries in the field Telephone and Extension (Fax and Extension) cannot be more than 24 characters in total.
- Leading spaces are not allowed in the field Telephone or Fax or in the field Extension.
- Valid characters are:
- Numbers (0123456789)
- Letters (ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ)
- Following other characters: /, (, ), - *, # and " " (space), but not as a leading space.
- If an + is entered as the first character, the system checks whether the specified number starts with a country code. If so, a warning message is displayed because the country code is automatically determined by the system and should not be stored in the Telephone number (Fax number) field.
- If an & is entered as the first character, the automatic check and formatting of the telephone number (fax number), as well as the determination of the country code, is suppressed.
