Caller ID allows the person being called to see the number and/or the name of the person calling them, when they have the correct equipment to receive the Caller ID information. Also, it is important to keep in mind that ultimately it is the carrier who is in control of the Caller Id name and number, see Carrier considerations.

In this Case the Caller ID name “Julio Ramirez” and Caller ID number “+16145025075” will be sent to the trunk, this is a “per user configuration” and can be overridden by the trunk configuration or dialplan configuration. Please see Method 2 Caller ID at trunk level, Method 4 - Caller ID at trunk level - Advanced, and Method 3 - Configure the Caller ID in the Dial plan.

It is possible to substitute the real user's number with false identity, both for internal and external calls. For this purpose it is possible to create in WMS virtual users to be used by employees as identity numbers. Read more about Identities feature: Identities Feature. |

In case the caller is found in the PBX phonebooks, Caller ID is displayed with “Company” field ("Organization" field in the Phonebook) for calls from trunks on Wildix devices. Additionally it's possible to customize the way caller ID name is displayed using "Set" Dialplan application. More details in Dialplan applications - Admin Guide (Dialplan application "Set"). |
Incoming Caller ID, name and number received on each incoming call, can also be manipulated if needed. Please keep in mind that incoming Caller ID name and number also depend on the carrier, please see Carrier considerations.
