Hey Guys..how are you all?? hope you're a doing great...Today i came up with another exciting topic that many people are waiting for and especially business person who are doing Forex Trading and moreover, people engaging in share market.
           
            Salesforce is a must-have business tool. This software gives you the possibility to save your clients' information in a database and manage most of your processes from one single interface. However, you need to use the right Salesforce phone number format in order to start phone calls from this interface.

           You need to access the User Interface to choose the right settings for your phone numbers. You can enter phone numbers via the API but will not be able to change the settings for these fields. You also need to set the right locale the first time you launch Salesforce.

            Salesforce works with different formats for phone numbers. In fact, the format you enter the first time you save a phone number will be automatically detected and preserved. If you save a phone with nine digits, it will be saved as is. If you enter a phone number with ten digits, it will also be saved without formatting.

Dealing With Salesforce Phone Number Format

        Saving a phone number with eleven digits, the exact Salesforce phone number format depends on what the first digit is. If the first digit is 1, the by default format will switch to a ten digit format and the 1 at the beginning of the phone number will disappear.

        If you save an eleven digit phone number that does not start with 1, Salesforce will automatically save the phone number as is with the eleven digits.

        This applies if you have set United States or Canada as your locale in Salesforce. As long as you have one of these two locales saved in Salesforce, any phone number that starts with a 1 will be automatically saved without this first digit. If you have another locale saved in Salesforce, the 1 at the beginning of your phone numbers will be preserved.

         The ten and eleven digit phone numbers you enter in Salesforce will be saved with a hyphen and parentheses. If you enter 8005553333 in Salesforce, this phone number will be saved as (800) 555-3333.

         You can use the + sign to get different Salesforce phone number format. Entering this + sign before a phone number indicates that you would like to preserve the original formatting and the parentheses and hyphens will not be added. You should use this sign for longer phone numbers since the hyphen and parentheses formatting might not be correct.

    If a phone number saved in Salesforce does not work, the first thing you need to do is check the Salesforce phone number format. Using the + sign or failing to use it when needed could be the reason behind a phone number that doesn't work.
