Skype for Business 2015 Call forwarding issue

Question
-
What causes call forwarding to the mobile, even when all the settings are not to forward in Skype4b 2015?
We have a scenario as when the unanswered call goes to the mobile. It is very annoying at the non office times.
Workaround is to enter wrong Phone number in the skype4b mobile app, something to deal with registrations.
However is there a setting where this can be stopped ?Wednesday, March 11, 2020 4:22 PM

Hi Khoj Sahiwala,
Do you mean that the scenario of yours is the same as the link provided by you and the workaround can solve your problem?
You can reduce the static registration expiry for mobile clients manually. This article gives detailed information about how to modify the value: https://myhybridsetup.org/sfb-2015-reduce-static-registration-expiry-for-ios-and-android-clients/.

We were able to reduce this error by replacing the Enterprise Voice Numbers to E.164 and assigning proper Extensions. We are not facing this issue anymore.

Hi Khoj Sahiwala,
Do you mean that the call forwarding to the mobile even you don’t configure call forwarding in your environment?

Even after doing this the calls are getting forwarded.
This is what is happening.
Using workaround we are able to overcome it.
Is there any other way for it?
