If these states are enabled for an account (the “All” state is disabled), and the phone is in the busy state when a call comes in, the phone can forward the call to the specified phone number (for example, voicemail). If there is no answer on the phone after the specified number of rings, the phone can forward the call to a different specified number, such as a cell phone number.

6.For each account, in the “Number” field, enter the phone number for which you want the incoming calls to forward to if the phone is in the specified state.

If using the “Account” mode or “Custom” mode, you can enter different phone numbers for each account.
