    4. Additional settings to review:

       * **Voicemail Settings**: Enable fallback voicemail for unanswered calls.
       * **Call Recording**: Toggle recording for quality assurance or compliance.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Verify Call Forwarding">

  </Step>
</Steps>

## **Troubleshooting Common Issues**

### **Problem: Calls Are Not Forwarding**

* **Check Call Forwarding Settings**: Ensure the thinkrr.ai number is entered correctly, including the country code.
* **Network Issues**: Ensure a stable internet connection while configuring the settings. Retry the setup if necessary.

### **Problem: Calls Are Forwarded Incorrectly**

* **Incorrect Number**: Verify that the correct thinkrr.ai number is entered in the forwarding field.
* **Advanced Settings Misconfiguration**: Review advanced settings to ensure options like "Forward Calls to Business Phone Number" and "Ring User Assigned to Called Number" are turned off.

### **Problem: Calls Are Not Routed to the Correct Person**

* **User Assignments Conflict**: Check contact-specific user assignments in GHL to avoid conflicts in routing logic.

## **Testing Tips**

* **Call Each Number**: Test both the GHL Lead Connector number and the thinkrr.ai number individually to ensure they are operational.
* **Check Logs**: Review call logs in GHL and thinkrr to identify potential issues in the routing process.
