Just as the leaves are readying to transform, so too is the SMS/800 TFN (Toll-Free Number) Registry with new enhancements! Since the completion of the cutover to the new cloud-based SMS/800 TFN Registry on June 24, 2019, there has been a whirlwind of activity around the modernized system.

To ensure that the Toll-Free industry is prepared for the future, the team has been hard at work identifying opportunities for enhancement. The result? A collage of new features, functions and capabilities, including analytics that help Responsible Organizations (Resp Orgs) increase performance and maximize efficiency. Join us on this path towards strengthening the future of Toll-Free:

13 New Feature Enhancements
Available in Sandbox for Testing September 9-20, 2019

The transition to a cloud-based platform was only the beginning of the long-term plan to modernize the SMS/800 TFN Registry and drive the future of Toll-Free. In its next release, slated for September 23, 2019, the SMS/800 TFN Registry will benefit from a series of updated features and functionality. The new features were developed to address customer requests for additional Number Administration, Customer Record Administration and new SMS/800 TFN Registry Reporting capabilities.

WBA Functionality Improved
with Addition of 6 Mass Automation Screens

In addition to the new features scheduled for release in the SMS/800 TFN Registry, the mass automation screens and functionality have been added back to the Web Based Access (WBA). These screens include the Multi-Dial Number Query, Multi-Dial Number Resp Org Change, Automation Job Review and more!
