Use dialing shortcuts

Dialing shortcuts add a prefix at the beginning of a number, so you can dial an extension instead of the whole number.

1Open Phone & Videos Calls .

2Open the application menu and tap Preferences & Accounts.

3Under Dialing Shortcuts, tap Add a number.

4Set the following:

When I Dial: Tap this field and select the number of digits you need to enter to have your device add a dialing prefix.

Use This Dialing Prefix: Enter the prefix to be added at the beginning of the dialed number. The combination of prefix and digits you enter must add up to a complete phone number.

5Tap Done.

Example: A complete phone number in your company’s phone system has 11 numbers, for example, 1-408-555-1122. When dialing from a phone that’s part of the system, you need to dial only the last five digits (51122). When you create a dialing shortcut on your device, you select “5 digit numbers” for When I Dial and enter “140855” in Use This Dialing Prefix. So when you dial your co-worker’s five-digit extension (51122), your device automatically dials the whole number: 1-408-555-1122.

Set your dialing method

If you have both a Skype account and a connected smartphone (see Create a Skype account in Phone & Video Calls or Sign in to a Skype account in Phone & Video Calls), you can set whether your device dials calls using a connected smartphone or the Skype account. Alternatively, you can select to be prompted for the account to use each time you make a call.
