Make Teams call without assigned number
Hi community, do you know if a user with a phone system license and calling plan can make outgoing calls without having an assigned number himself?

nc-novelt I don't think that is possible. The system must have something to send out for Caller-ID on PSTN.
Here is the link to the MS Docs.
I have both the PSTN for DID and making & receiving phone calls and also have the Conference Add-on.
I can tell you a little trick to make outgoing calls but if you expect to receive in-bound calls direct it doesn't work.
If you only want to make outbound calls you can purchase Conference Add-on and get the pooled minutes that come with that subscription. Then when you want to call out, you can use the Add Participants and dial out to a number. The number that is displayed on Caller-ID is the number of the bridge line.
