Phone number type field

We cannot currently use the Person object for adding of new contacts by our CSM’s because if they add a phone number it either strips the 0 from the start of it or doesn’t allow a + to be included for international numbers. 

 

Could we please have a phone number type field which allows for these things and allows us to write back to the phone number type fields in SF contacts.

@HollySimmons This is in our long term road-map. 


@sai_ram Can it be moved to the short-term roadmap? Currently looking at how to bring in phone numbers from SFDC contact records to GS Company Person and it looks like I can’t even view the standard SFDC phone number field, likely because it isn’t a supported data type :(


@sai_ram Was this ever solutioned for? I am having trouble writing phone numbers back to SFDC and I believe it is because SFDC has a field type of PHONE. In data management I see no options for Phone data type.

Thanks.
