A “Short Number” is a 2-5 digit code that allows users to reach specific destinations without dialing the full 10-digit number. For example, office staff can transfer calls to a field technician’s cell phone using a short number like “02” instead of the full number. This guide provides step-by-step instructions for managing short numbers in the Omnia Admin Portal.
