Creating a Domain
Let's now go over the steps required to create a Domain in the client portal.
-
First log into the client portal, then click on the Domains tab at the top of the screen.
-
Click on the Add Domain button at the top right of the screen.
-
Fill out the following fields in the Basic tab:
Name: The name of the Domain. Can be the actual domain of the customer but can also just be a word. (the .com is not necessary)
Description: The name of the Account (Customer). -
Click on the blue Next button and fill out the following fields in the Defaults tab:
- Language: Choose the default language for the account. If your customers want a bilingual configuration, pick the one they prefer or the one that will affect most users.
- Timezone: Choose the timezone in which the customer operates. If the customer has offices in different time zones, pick the timezone which contains most extensions.
- Area Code: The area code of the main number for the customer. If the customer has different numbers in different area codes, chose the one which contains the most extensions.
- Caller name: The name of the Account (Customer), unless specified otherwise by the customer.
-
Caller ID: The main number for the customer. If the customer has different numbers in different area codes choose the one which contains themost extensions. You must enter a number that we service (assigned by us, that a customer is porting.) The other fields may keep their default values.
