When creating or editing contacts, any phone numbers are auto-formatted to match the chosen country code.

Auto-formatting: How it works
When adding or editing a contact, the phone number is formatted to a valid phone number.
- When entering a phone number manually, or copy-pasting for another source, the phone number will be formatted based on the country code. The field accepts digits, spaces and the characters + - ( ). If you type or paste anything else, such as letters, dots or slashes, nothing is entered and the field keeps its previous value.
For example, a Swedish a number with the format (+46) 8-505 806 00 will get a valid format (as displayed below) when copy-pasted into the contact.
- If you enter a phone number without country code, the phone number will be formatted based on the selected country code.
For example, a Swedish number with format 08-505 806 00 will get a valid format (as displayed below) when copy-pasted into the contact.
Phone number validation
Phone number validation is based on country code. If the phone number has the wrong number of digits, or any digit is in the wrong place (based on country code format), Upsales will highlight it in red. The highlight is a warning only: you can still save the contact with the number as entered.
