# Unassign DID numbers from a capacity group

Unassign DID numbers from a Capacity group when they should no longer use the group's shared or metered channels.

## Before you begin

- Review the DID number's capacity mode before unassigning it from a group. A DID+0 number needs additional Capacity to receive inbound calls. See [How capacity works](../../capacity/how-capacity-works.html).
- Review the Capacity group behavior and constraints before removing numbers from the group. See [Capacity groups](../../capacity/capacity-groups.html#capacity-groups).
- If you plan to delete the group after unassigning DID numbers, see [Delete a Capacity group](../../capacity/how-to-guides/delete-capacity-group.html).

## Step 1: Filter DID numbers by capacity group

1. In the DIDWW User Panel, go to **Phone Numbers > My Numbers**.
2. Select the **Active** or **All Numbers** tab.
3. Open **Filters** and enable the **Capacity group** filter.
4. Select the pool and Capacity group.
