Move numbers from Direct Routing to Teams Phone Mobile

To move numbers from Direct Routing to Teams Phone Mobile, you'll need to complete the following steps:

Determine if the existing Direct Routing numbers are assigned online or on-premises.
Migrate the numbers from Direct Routing to Teams Phone Mobile.
Remove the Direct Routing online voice routing policy associated with your user.
Assign Teams Phone Mobile licenses to your users.
Acquire phone numbers.
Assign phone numbers.

These steps are described in greater detail in the following sections.

Determine if the existing Direct Routing numbers are assigned online or on-premises.

How you remove your existing Direct Routing numbers depends on whether the number is assigned on-premises or online.

First, check that the user is assigned a Direct Routing number by running the following Teams PowerShell command. NumberType should be DirectRouting:
```
Get-CsPhoneNumberAssignment -AssignedPstnTargetId <user> 
```
Determine if the number is assigned online or on-premises by running the following Teams PowerShell command:
```
Get-CsOnlineUser -Identity <user> | fl RegistrarPool, OnPremLineURI, LineURI 
```
If OnPremLineUri is populated with an E.164 phone number, the phone number was assigned on-premises and synchronized to Microsoft 365.

Migrate the numbers from Direct Routing to Teams Phone Mobile

To migrate numbers, follow the steps below.

Important

During migration, the phone number will be out of service. Coordinate with your Teams Phone Mobile operator before you begin the migration.

To migrate existing Direct Routing numbers assigned online to Teams Phone Mobile, contact your operator. To find your operator's website, see Microsoft 365 Teams Phone Mobile directory. On the agreed date and time, your operator will migrate your numbers from Direct Routing to Teams Phone Mobile. This may involve removing the phone number being migrated from your tenant and add it again as a new phone number associated with Teams Phone Mobile.
To migrate Direct Routing numbers assigned on-premises to Teams Phone Mobile, run the following Skype for Business Server PowerShell command:
```
Set-CsUser -Identity <user> -LineURI $null 
```
To check if the on-premises number was removed and the changes have been synced from on-premises to Microsoft 365, run the following Teams PowerShell command:
```
Get-CsOnlineUser -Identity <user> | fl RegistrarPool, OnPremLineURI, LineURI 
```

After the changes have synced to Microsoft 365 online directory, the expected output is:

ConsoleCopy
RegistrarPool                        : pool.infra.lync.com
OnPremLineURI                        : 
LineURI

To check if the phone number was removed, run the following Teams PowerShell command:

Get-CsOnlineUser -Identity <user> | fl LineUri

Note

The amount of time it takes for the removal to take effect depends on your configuration. Removing the phone number may take up to 10 minutes, in rare cases, it can take up to 24 hours.

Remove the Direct Routing online voice routing policy associated with your user

After the number is unassigned, remove the online voice routing policy associated with your user by running the following Teams PowerShell command:

Grant-CsOnlineVoiceRoutingPolicy -Identity <user> -PolicyName $Null
