Pourquoi et quand exécuter cette tâche

Setting the Create telephone allocations and numbers checkbox as true, while creating a telephone block, creates individual numbers and telephone allocation. You can assign multiple telephone numbers to a telephone allocation. When you assign a single telephone number allocation to a telephone number block, you can assign a series of numbers to that block.

On completing this task, assigning a single telephone number allocation to a telephone number block results in assigning a series of numbers to that block.

   Remarque :

   Based on the assigned or allocated telephone numbers, the existing allocation divides into separate allocations. For example, in a series of 1-100, if 1-10 and 90–100 are assigned, then the 1–100 allocation divides into three allocations. The three allocations, 1–10 and 90–100 with availability as No and 11–89 as Yes are created.
