Phone numbers in edit mode

International phone numbers begin with a country code and use the following format:

+phoneCountryCode phoneNumber extensionNumber

For ease of entering phone information, it is possible to configure the GlobalPhoneInputSet widget to show a list of Region Code values in PolicyCenter from which the user can chose. For PolicyCenter to show the Region Code drop-down list, the following must be true:

Configuration parameter AlwaysShowPhoneWidgetRegionCode in config.xml must be set to true.
The user must initially enter a plus sign in the phone number field.

If the user initially enters a plus sign (+) in the phone number field, the GlobalPhoneInputSet widget issues a post-on-change event to expose a Region Code drop-down list. Application logic maps the region code to a country code by using CountryCodeToRegionCode.xml and identifies the corresponding country. PolicyCenter formats the phone number based on the user’s phone region and the country selected for the phone number. For example:

User phone region	Phone number country	PolicyCenter format
`US`	`US`	Domestic United States
`US`	`FR`	International French
FR	`FR`	Domestic French
FR	`US`	International United States

If a user enters a numeric phone number without first entering a country code, then PolicyCenter invokes only the format action on a targeted post-on-change event. Also, PolicyCenter invokes only the format action if the country code is the same as the user’s selected default, or, if none, the default configured for the server.
