The Number Admin History Report displays historical information for a Toll-Free Number. This report is available to users who have successfully logged into the Somos® Portal Website (portal.somos.com) and then navigate to the "Resources" section of the website. Additionally, this report can assist Responsible Organizations (Resp Orgs) with Toll-Free Number information such as the Number Administration status and when a Toll-Free Number was changed from one Resp Org to another Resp Org. Please Note: The Number Admin History Report is updated every 15 minutes and receives its information from the TFNRegistry™ Reporting.

Questions and Answers
- What type of information is available?
- The TFNRegistry Reporting stores Number Administration historical information up to 7 years. Reporting may display information older than 7 years, if no changes have been made to the Toll-Free Number during this timeframe. Therefore, the first stored historical entry maybe a Toll-Free Number in a Working or even Disconnect status.
- Why is the Company name (Organization field) empty on some Toll-Free Numbers?
- The company is no longer an Active Resp Org with Somos.
- What happens when a Company’s name changes?
- The Toll-Free Number will be listed under the same Resp Org ID and the Organization field will only show the current Company name.
