• When multiple accounts are enabled, you will be able to receive calls on all those accounts.
• You can never place a call on a disabled account. If you place a call that is only valid on the disabled
account, it will fail with a “Not found” message.
• You can never receive a call on a disabled account. If another party phones you on a number that is only
known to a disabled account, the call will never appear on your Bria.
• When multiple accounts are enabled, the account to use for an outgoing call is determined by the rules of
the dial plan determine which account is used. See “Dial Plan” on page 80. If you have not set up any dial
plans, then the default account is used.
