You'll need an input file with the usernames and telephone numbers.
For example:
User,Telephone
Jim.Bo,555-555-1234
Billy.Bob,123-456-7890
You can do this in excel, save it as a .csv
Import-csv "yourfile.csv" | foreach-object ({
$user = $_.user
$tele = $_.telephone
write-host "Setting $tele on $user"
Set-ADUser $user -officephone $tele })
Save this as a .PS1 and then run this in Powershell with the ActiveDirectory Module started.
