Allow handling of multiple Call Queue calls
Currently, if you are on a Call Queue call you can receive a personal (direct) call at the same time and can switch to that call, reject it, etc. We have some smaller call queues where it would be beneficial for one person to be able to pick up multiple calls at a time. E.g. They're on a call queue call, see that another is ringing, and they put the original call on hold and tell the second caller that they'll be with them shortly (etc).Clearly, this would not be suitable in every instance but having the option would be welcome.

By adding an option to disable the "After call wrap-up time" option would solve the issue.

Becky, The primary issue that call queues lack the ability for us admins to have the queue offer the user a second call while they are marked as "Busy". This is an issue for smaller companies or smaller queues where there is one maybe two guys on the phones at a particular time of the day. The problem with the Ring Group option is that the user extension incurs a monthly charge.

Hey, all - we might recommend using our ring group feature if you want to have call waiting. Here's the link to learn more. https://support.ringcentral.com/article/10183.html. If this does not address your specific use case, please share more details here in the comments and we'll update!Thanks!

We currently have a call queue and for most of the day there is only one person in the office. If they are on the phone they are unable to take a second call because they are on the phone the call does not ring at their extension. We would like to put call on hold and take second call or minimally have the call logged on the phone.
