Problem with Call using Skype feature

Problem with Call using Skype feature

In my Zoho CRM, using Google Chrome, next to all of Contacts' phone numbers is a little telephone icon. I am in the United States. Hovering mouse above this icon displays "Call using Skype ". However, when using this feature, the phone number passed to Skype has a "+" symbol inserted to the beginning of it. So for example, if the phone number on a contact is (212)555-1212, the number is passed to Skype as +2125551212. To Skype, this is an invalid phone number. Since the plus is there, Skype assumes there should be a country code right after and the call fails. Skype does have a default country code setting, which seems to be bypassed by this Call using Skype feature. Now, if we enter all of our phone numbers into Zoho like this: 1(212)555-1212 it will work. Does Zoho recommend adding phone numbers in this format? Is there any known work-around?

      • How to Add Users to your Organization in ZohoMail?

        A better clarity so you can create other users to start using Zoho Mail. You can directly Add Users from the Control Panel to your Organization. You can invite users with the existing email address. If the person (user) already uses ZohoCRM, then you can import users from Zoho CRM. You can also import them using a .csv file. (if you are planning to add them in Bulk)  In this topic, We will be discussing on how to Add and Invite users only.  The Import options are self explanatory. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
