Important Considerations When Using This Feature

  • To use this feature with Fuze Mobile, ensure Call Settings is set to VoIP Only. Refer to Call Settings for Fuze Mobile for additional information. 
  • If you are switching phones while on a manually recorded call, the call recording will stop. To continue the recording after switching to the new phone, dial *3 if switching to a phone. There will be two call recording entries created for the call.
