I was clicking around the other day, and I swear I saw a "Move Number to Inventory" button somewhere. But now I can't find it again.

Is this a feature under development or something? Would love to have such a button. :)

Feature is to be considered extremely BETA, but should work fine if you simply want to place a phone number back into inventory / create a new incoming only type account / re-assign to another account as virtual number, etc.

You can find it under the 'Accounts' -> 'Phone Numbers' page (bottom).

Awesome, found it again. Thanks Brandon!

I want to ask one more question before I click on it though.

I don't see a way to select which number to send to inventory.

Is that done after I click the button? I just want to make sure it doesn't send all of my numbers to inventory or something.

Apologies, looks like the selection was not available to all users - please refresh and advise. There should now be an 'Action' column in which you can check of any desired phone numbers.

Following up on this...

Unfortunately the new button still needs some work.

Currently, it puts the number in inventory, but does not remove the associated account from the control panel... it just causes the account to say something like "you have no numbers associated with this account".

I'll look forward to any progress on this feature though. Thanks. :)

Yes this is one drawback currently - it will not automatically purge a full service line account.

So if you were to send it back to inventory it could not immediately be applied back to a full service line account without the account being manually purged.

So for the time being it is really most useful to those creating forwarding / incoming only accounts.

We are working on this process and hope to have this functionality available shortly in order that you may place back into inventory and re-create any type of account without any intervention.
