Overview: Fax Number Permissions container in Users (Console)

This article explains the fax number permissions for users configurable in Console.

Overview

The Fax Number Permission container lets you assign a user access to specific fax numbers provisioned to your account. Users with an assigned fax number can manage fax communications through the fax workspace in the softphone and/or can manage fax communications in the interaction workspace if they are a queue user.

Prerequisites

• Your account must have at least one fax number provisioned.

• The user must have the Fax permission enabled in the User Permissions container in Users to have access to fax capabilities.

Assigning fax numbers to a user means they can only manage fax communications through the assigned numbers. If you don’t assign specific fax numbers to a user, the user can manage fax communications with any of the fax numbers on your account.
