IVR repetition times and extreme time delay between each repetition
Based on current settings, the IVR message is repeated 3 times till there is some action. In addition, the time delay between each repetition is more than 10 seconds, as a result the customer hangs up the phone. We suggest the following enhancements:
- provide the option to change the no of repetitions (for example 1 or 2 or 3)
- reduce the time delay between each repetition to less than 3 seconds

Option to customize timeout duration on IVR and Call Queue
Feature Request:
Ability to customize the timeout duration for user input when entering an extension number while a prompt is playing or when a call is ringing a queue or IVR.
Description:
Currently, the system enforces a fixed timeout for detecting user input when callers attempt to dial an extension during greetings, IVR prompts, or while waiting in a call queue. This can result in invalid entry errors if the input is entered too quickly or too slowly.
Requested Enhancement:
Provide administrators with the ability to configure or extend the timeout duration for user input, allowing more flexibility in how…7 votes -
Support for Pause-Based Extension Dialing (,,) in RingCentral Click-to-Dial / Teams Integration
Currently, when dialing our main company number from RingCentral (or Microsoft Teams) using a pause format such as 5087719400,,2305, the system does not automatically pass the extension. The call remains at the main IVR and does not route to the intended extension.
However, the same dialing method works correctly when calling from a mobile device, where the extension is processed as expected.
Click-to-dial is enabled in RingCentral settings, so this appears to be a limitation in how pause/delay dialing and extension handling is processed within RingCentral/Teams.
We would like this functionality to be reviewed and considered for future enhancement so…

Allow incoming calls to route the call directly depending on the user's contact list
Alllow incoming calls to be connected automatically depending on contacts. If the system recognized my contact, it should directly connect to my number. If not, it should connect to my desire queue. If Ringcentral recognizes the caller phone number to be within my current contacts, then I need the phone directed to my assistant. If Ringcentral does not recognize the number, I need the call directed to my intake team. I want the intelligent solution, not IVR

Custom Rules order priority
I would like to see a feature where the ordering of Custom Rules determines their priority in matching to inbound calls.
Here is my use case:
I have a custom rule on a site's Auto Receptionist to send calls to an answering service during the lunch hour.I also have a custom rule for Holidays set on the same Auto Receptionist.
Naturally, the lunch schedule happens every day (including holidays) so this creates a conflict. Currently I have to exclude the lunch hour from the Holiday rule to have no conflicts. This however will have calls during the lunch hour…

The IVR Loop Count Limit
RingCentral generally limits a call from hitting the exact same IVR menu more than 3 times in a single session. Once that limit is breached, the system assumes the call is broken, plays the "We are experiencing a technical problem" error, and terminates the call. We should be able to increase the IVR loop limit so it doesn't just cut off after 3 times.

Outbound Caller ID: Fixed assignment of IVR numbers to specific user
Under the Caller ID restrictions, the "Allow direct numbers as Caller ID" option currently enables end users to call out using all IVR numbers. However, the user should only be able to use the specific IVR Menu number assigned to them as their outbound Caller ID, without access to any other IVR numbers.

Display Original Caller ID of Forwarded calls to Voicemails Instead of the Forwarding extension
We have Voicemails that get forwarded to different departments but when they get forwarded from one extension to another is shows that the extension number as the callerID. We want the forwarded messages to show the original callerid of the person who left the voicemail.

Workflow IVR menu to text on screen
Hard to put in words, but it would be nice if you could have the RingCX workflow and dial choices automatically show up on caller's cell phones when they call a number, which immediately displays all the choices for the current IVR menu/workflow/dial tree they are in. This would allow them to see what choices they can pick instead of waiting for the audio greeting to read the choices to them.

Customizable Default Routing for Unassigned Numbers
Overview
Currently, the system is hardcoded to route calls made to unassigned phone numbers to the Admin Extension by default. While this ensures calls are not dropped, it creates manual overhead for administrators who prefer these calls be handled by a specific department or automated service (e.g., a Call Queue).User Requirement
The customer (Johnny) requires the ability to define a global routing rule for any phone number that holds a valid license but is not currently assigned to a specific user or entity. Specifically, he wants these calls automatically routed to a Call Queue rather than the Admin Extension.…

Adding a date and time template to custom answering rules
We would like RingCentral to add an importable date‑and‑time schedule template to the Custom Answering Rules section (Auto‑Receptionist → General Settings → Site → Call Handling → Custom Rules → Edit Custom Answering Rules → Date & Time Schedule.)
The goal of this enhancement is to eliminate the need to manually enter each date and time range by hand. Instead, administrators should be able to import a schedule generated in Excel or another scheduling platform, allowing faster updates, fewer errors, and easier management of complex or recurring schedules.

MS Teams: Ring Physical Desk Phones for Internal Microsoft Teams Calls (Direct Routing)
Description: We are using the RingCentral for Microsoft Teams (Direct Routing 2.0) integration. Currently, calls made from the PSTN (external) correctly ring both the Teams app and the user's physical desk phone.
However, when a call is initiated internally (Teams-to-Teams) or via a Teams IVR, the call stays entirely within the Microsoft cloud and does not route through the RingCentral network. As a result, the physical desk phone does not ring.
The Ask: We need a configuration option to route internal Teams calls through RingCentral (or fork the signaling) to ensure the physical desk phone rings simultaneously with the Teams…

Temporary Numbers assigned to Contact Center cannot be redirected.
Currently if you assign a temporary number to the Contact Center it cannot be reversed until the number it is associated with ports. This is an inconvenience. Also to avoid downtime, and have a quick and seamless migration, we should be able to reassign a temp number mistakenly assigned to route to a contact center. When trying to reassign, you get the message below:
Number Type: Contact Center Routing Number
This Contact Center number is being used as a temporary number for an in-progress port-in. It can't be reassigned to another number type.8 votes -

Customizable IVR Prompt Repeat Count or Additional Key Press Setting
The current RingCentral IVR configuration enforces a hard-coded limit of three (3) prompt repetitions when a caller enters no action (i.e., no key press is detected) before the system executes a final action (e.g., disconnecting the call or routing to the next destination).
Please introduce a new, configurable setting in the IVR/Auto-Receptionist setup that allows administrators to change the number of times the prompt repeats before executing the final action.
Or add an option to skip the IVR or route the caller to an extension if they hit pound (#) or star key (*).•Expected Benefits
- Improved Customer Experience: Allows…

IVR External Transfer Key Press Description Field
When configuring an IVR Menu, it would be very helpful to have the option to label an ‘External Transfer’ number with a description.
Currently, when a key press action is set to ‘External Transfer’ and includes only the phone number, other admins who review the call routing later won’t know who or what that number routes to (see attached screenshot).
Our company works with many different third-party partners, so being able to label each external number with the associated company or purpose would make call routing management much clearer and more efficient.

Enhanced Call Logging for IVR-to-Queue Routing Visibility
This request seeks to improve call log accuracy for calls routed through an IVR to a Call Queue, specifically to ensure "Missed" states are captured correctly without requiring workarounds. This enhancement will provide full visibility into the caller journey and eliminate the current technical trade-off between SMS functionality and reporting accuracy.
