TFNRegistry UI: Are TFNs Auto-Formatted?

Toll-Free Numbers (TFNs) provided by you are automatically auto-formatted for single entry or bulk processing. You can manually enter the TFN in the Search box, copy and paste from other sources and upload an Excel workbook containing a list of TFNs. After the TFNs are entered, you must click anywhere on the page to activate the auto-formatting of TFNs. Once the TFNs have been entered, the TFNRegistry™ will:

• Auto format all TFNs with a “Close” icon.
• Display the number of valid TFNs in a blue font.
• Display the number of invalid TFNs in a red font.
• Display “Remove” button or “Close” icon so the you can remove all the invalid TFNs.

Please Note:

• You can upload a list of bulk TFNs or Templates in an Excel workbook for the specific pages separately (see list below); however, the list of bulk TFNs and the list of Templates cannot be listed in the same Excel workbook.
• During the bulk upload, if you upload an Excel workbook incorrectly, the TFNRegistry allows you to upload another workbook with correct information and it will overwrite file with the new workbook.

Valid and Invalid TFN Formats:

The following is a list of valid TFN formats that will be auto-formatted when entered:

When you enter an invalid TFN format, the following error message will be displayed:

Must be 10 numeric or between 10 to 20 alpha numeric characters and optionally 2 dashes '-', periods '.', parentheses '()' or spaces ' '.
