trying to figure out how to resolve getting the right info to show up on my caller id screen. for example i have 2 clients that forward their phones to my phone number. i have 2 ways i tried in my anveo call flow to receive the calls.
the first i had the caller id set to pass the number to my phone. so what happens is the person calling my client, their phone number is showing up on my screen (my clients call forwarding just passes the call straight through). which i do want to know who is calling my client. the problem is that because both my clients send to the same number i dont know which client is being called so i dont know how to answer the phone.
so secondly i set the callerid to the receiving phone number but that doesnt help b/c its just showing my number (i wasnt sure if it was going to show me my clients number as thats the number that the original caller is dialing)
now is there a way to distinguish between the 2 clients that forward to my number and get the caller id of the person that originally called my client?
or is the only way to pull this off is to give every single client their own separate DID they forward to so i know the client that is ringing on my end?
