      Grant-CsOnlineVoiceRoutingPolicy -Identity user@domain.com -PolicyName "ThinkTel"

      1. Users may already be enabled for Voicemail so this command might not be required:
        Set-CsOnlineVoiceMailUserSettings -Identity user@domain.com -VoicemailEnabled $true
      2. Optionally, you can verify a user was assigned the correct parameters with the following command:
        Get-CsOnlineUser user@domain.com | fl DialPlan, InterpretedUserType, TeamsUpgradeEffectiveMode, HostingProvider, EnterpriseVoiceEnabled, OnPremEnterpriseVoiceEnabled, OnlineVoiceRoutingPolicy, TeamsCallingPolicy, SipAddress, LineUri, AssignedPlan, FeatureTypes, WhenChanged

      Resource Accounts

      Set-CsPhoneNumberAssignment -Identity resource@domain.onmicrosoft.com -PhoneNumber '+1xxxxxxxxxx' -PhoneNumberType DirectRouting

      Optional, to allow the Auto Attendant or Call Queue to route calls to PSTN numbers, apply the following:
      Grant-CsOnlineVoiceRoutingPolicy -Identity resource@company.onmicrosoft.com -PolicyName "ThinkTel"
