Sent Faxes and Delivery Status
Find each outgoing attempt, understand Sent and Failed, check the page count and follow a careful retry process when delivery fails.
Check the result after sending
Open Fax → Sent. Clicking Send fax submits the request; check the outgoing record before assuming it reached its destination.
Find the correct attempt
- Use Custom search for the recipient’s phone number, name or a note.
- Choose the Fax line and Date range, then click Search. Use Reset to remove old filters.
- Check From, To, Date / Time and Notes to distinguish repeated attempts. Use Auto refresh or the refresh icon while reviewing a recent send.
Understand the status and page count
- Sent: the record reports a successful fax transmission. It does not tell you whether a person has read or processed the document.
- Failed: the attempt did not complete successfully. Check the attempt and confirm with the recipient before resending if partial receipt is possible.
- Pages: the page count reported for that record. A zero or dash is not a substitute for the delivery status or a confirmation from the recipient.
Open PDF shows the stored document. Use it to check the source pages; it does not by itself prove that every page reached the receiving device or was readable there.
If a fax fails
- Confirm the destination is the recipient’s current fax number. Ask whether the fax line or receiving device was busy or unavailable, and whether any pages arrived.
- Review your document: pages should be complete, upright and legible. If only some pages arrived, agree with the recipient on which pages to resend.
- Once the issue is addressed, prepare the needed document through Fax → Send fax. Check the new result in Sent. If it fails repeatedly, contact support instead of sending many duplicate attempts.
For support, include the sending line, recipient number, date/time, status, page count and any visible error. Avoid sharing the document’s sensitive contents unless they are needed.
Keep a useful record
Use Edit note for the case reference or follow-up, Important for priority items, and More → Labels… / Archive to organize completed work. See labels and bulk actions.
Delivery versus usage
The Fax Usage Report helps you compare activity by period and line. A status, zero pages or a blank value does not establish an invoice charge. For a billing question, compare the relevant invoice and ask support about the specific record.
