When asking the question if it is possible to record forwarded calls through the phone system the vanilla response is it is NOT possible. However, there is a work around that can be implemented to actually do this!
- Setup a new extension or modify an extension extension. On the general tab put your outside number in the "mobile number field"
- Go to the forwarding rules of the same extension and under the Available or Available 2 status check the box that says "Ring my extension and mobile phone at the same time"
- Make sure under the option tab that record all calls in enabled
- Press Apply and OK
- Make a call to that extension from an outside number and have it ring through to the outside number you provided in the mobile phone field.
- Go back and check your recordings and you will find one for that call!
