Telephone number resource manager user interface and feature control

A computer-implemented method comprising:

• storing a database including a plurality of subscriber identifiers, wherein each subscriber identifier is associated with a telephone number and a subscriber name and address, and wherein each subscriber identifier is unique to the corresponding subscriber name and address,
• wherein a first telephone number is associated with a first subscriber identifier, and a second telephone number, different than the first telephone number, is associated with the first subscriber identifier;
• storing a database including a plurality of customer identifiers, wherein each customer identifier is associated with a subscriber identifier and a customer name and address, and wherein at least one customer identifier is associated with two of the plurality of subscriber identifiers, wherein a first customer identifier is associated with the first subscriber identifier;
• receiving a first update to the subscriber name or address associated with the first telephone number and associating a new subscriber identifier with the first updated subscriber name or address in response to receiving the first update;
• and
• associating the new subscriber identifier with the first customer identifier and the first telephone number.

A system comprising:

• a database to store a plurality of operator identifiers, wherein each operator identifier identifies an operator of a telephone number management system and is associated with a list of countries and a list of features, wherein each feature allows the operator associated with the corresponding operator identifier to add, edit, or delete certain information in the telephone number management system associated with each of the countries in the list;
• a processor to determine one of the operator identifiers, the list of countries associated with the one of the operator identifiers, and the list of features associated with the one of the operator identifiers;
• a display to display the list of countries and the list of features on a display;
• a receiver to receive a country selection by the operator associated with the one of the operator identifiers for a selected country in the list of countries, and to receive a feature selection by the operator associated with the one of the operator identifiers for a selected feature in the list of features;
• wherein the receiver is configured to receive an instruction, from the operator associated with the one of the operator identifiers, to add, edit, or delete the certain information in the telephone number management system authorized by the selected feature and associated with the selected country.

A system comprising:

• a first database to store a plurality of subscriber identifiers, wherein each subscriber identifier is associated with a telephone number and a subscriber name and address, and wherein each subscriber identifier is unique to the corresponding subscriber name and address,
• wherein a first telephone number is associated with a first subscriber identifier, and a second telephone number, different than the first telephone number, is associated with the first subscriber identifier;
• a second database to store a plurality of customer identifiers, wherein each customer identifier is associated with a subscriber identifier and a customer name and address, and wherein at least one customer identifiers is associated with two of the plurality of subscriber identifiers, wherein a first customer identifier is associated with the first subscriber identifier;
• a receiver to receive a first update to the subscriber name or address associated with the first subscriber identifier;
• and
• a processor to associate a new subscriber identifier with the first updated subscriber name or address in response to receiving the first update, wherein the processor is configured to associate the new subscriber identifier with the first customer identifier and the first telephone number.
