Usually a lower-case phi ($\phi$) is reserved for the PDF of a normal, while $\Phi$ is typically reserved for the CDF. Your non-standard notation may cause some confusion.

Jun 16, 2019 at 13:04 comment added Jarle Tufto The standard normal cdf can be expressed as $\phi(x)=P(Z\le x)=E 1\{Z\le x\}$ where $Z$ is standard normal. Using the law of total expectation, it then follows that for any random variable $W$, $E\phi(W)=EE(1\{Z\le W\}|W)=E1\{Z\le W\}=P(Z\le W)$.
