Primary rule: 


If the User (who logged in to send the SMS) is in the sub-account's My staff tab and has a Twilio Number assigned to himself or herself, the lead will get the SMS from the Twilio number assigned to that User. If the Twilio number is SMS incapable, we use the default number to send out the SMS instead.

Go to sub-account Settings > My staff > Edit the user



Expand Call & Voicemail Settings

If the User (who logged in to HL) is not inside that sub-account OR the User doesn't have a Twilio number assigned, we will first use


1. Channel number (first Twilio number ever used with that contact)


If that number got removed, we will then use:


2. Default outbound number



When we hover over the text messages in the conversation, we can click on the three dots to view Details. This helps to indicate which Twilio number is used when sending SMS.
