Speed dials act as phone number shortcuts. Speed Dials can be used to route to common internal CrazyPBX destinations, or external phone numbers.

# CrazyPBX - How to make a Speed Dial

CrazyPBX Speed dials can be used to place a call to an external number without dialing the entire number.
CrazyPBX Speed dials can also be used to save common Call Forwarding destinations, allowing them to be updated/swapped as needed.

## Making a CrazyPBX Speed Dial

1. Sign in to your Crazytel Customer Portal account and click **CrazyPBX**

2. Click **Inbound Features**, then **Speed Dials**

3. Click **Add Speed Dial** on the top-right

4. Enter the **Speed Dial Code** - this is the number CrazyPBX Extensions can dial to reach this destination

5. Enter a **Name** for the Speed Dial - this should be human readable, and logical (IE, Sales - Laura's Mobile)

6. Select *Custom Destination* in the **Destination Number** drop-down

7. Enter the external destination in the field provided (IE, 611800272998)

8. (optional) Enter a **Description** for the Speed Dial
