How can I identify a Ring Central caller? My calls are forwarded to my cell phone. How can I tell if a call is a forwarded RC call and not a direct call to my cell?

This did not work. I used "99" as my unique numbers. The result was ALL my calls were directly forwarded to voice mail. I had to undo the process to get my calls Back.
Thank you for this. However, it would be super helpful if RC did a simple fix like what's shown in my attachment. Thank you!
