Storing phonenumbers

 

Hi Devs!

I am wondering how to store phonenumbers.

Example:

Rwanda phone numbers are like this. +250783114729
Should I store 783114729, 250783114729 or +250783114729?

When I report data through the gateway DHIS2 recieves data on +250783114729
and maps it correctly to my user, but sends a message back on 250783114729
(without the '+' sign) which does not map to my user.

I tried to send a message to myself on the MTN network and it does not
accept a number without the '+' sign before 250783114729.
