Hello, [I am not a teacher, neither an English],

but I believe, make 'a phone call' is approaching the sense you are looking for.

Have a nice day.:-D

Life is full of variety.

The supermarket clerk rang up Mrs. Smith's purchases and told her she owed $33.

They had already rung up the sale so I decided not to get the extra items.

Business was bad Tuesday; we didn't ring up a sale all morning.

ring up = 1. to add and record on a cash register; to total and record esp. by means of a cash register
2. accomplish, achieve <They rang up many social triumphs.> <They rang up an impressive string of victories.>


Regards,


V.
