Caller ID option missing on iPhone 11 to enable calls on Mac

I want to configure my iphone to allow calls using my mac. I went to settings after reading a guide and checked "YOU CAN BE REACHED BY FACETIME AT" with my number, but the instructions (link: Make and receive phone calls on Mac, iPad, and Apple Vision Pro - Apple Support) tell me to make sure my phone number is selected under Caller ID too, but Caller ID isn't available(?) or showing up for my IPhone 11, so what do I do? However, should checking just one be enough to allow calls on my Mac? Thank you!

The Caller ID option isn't in FaceTime. The Caller ID option is in Settings > Apps > Phone - turn on Show My Caller ID and also see Calls on Other Devices and tap that to turn on you Mac. This of course assumes your Mac and iPhone are on the same Apple Account.
