phone number formatting

Noe Ramos

we want to ensure phone numbers are only entered in the correct formats without alpha characters and 10 digits only. i had created an action configuration to discover IPAs did not process correctly because it believed phone numbers with hyphens were not in the correct format. how do we write an action configuration to allow only digits? also question - what is the best way to configure this field to never allow alpha characters to be entered and only standard US phone numbers? here is a sample of my configuration i had believed to work but not allowing our process flows to complete for numbers like 123-45-6789 only wanted 123456789 

AddTelephonePagerOrFaxNumber is an ActionOverride

    effective date required

    Exit Rules

        constraint (ContactDetail.Telephone.SubscriberNumber matches "d{10}")

            "Phone_number_should_be_10_digits."

curious to know if anyone else has put measures in place to prevent alpha characters.   Thanks for looking

We also have this issue. Since we work with Tracker for our I9s, we are also concerned that the phone number has the dashes so it sends appropriately to them. Due to this we added the following constraint:

(Candidate.PrimaryContactInfo.MobilePhone.MobilePhoneNumber.SubscriberNumber matches "^[1-9]d{2}-d{3}-d{4}$")

// (have also attempted:) "([0-9]{3}-[0-9]{3}-[0-9]{4})")

             "Error:MobilePhoneNumberFormatNeededIsXXX-XXX-XXXX"

However, we learned that constraints do not work on this form since it is a wizard. After that we used the same code as an exit rule. This also has not worked for us, but figured I'd add some commentary so we can all get to the best result.

We have been told that an update is coming in October that will address this.
