  2. Summary:
    Improve clarity in the Service Web UI regarding how after-hours schedules are configured for Call Queues.

    Current Behavior:
    In the Service Web, the label states:
    “Schedule: These settings will apply during after hours. Edit schedule”

    This creates confusion because:

    The phrase suggests that users can directly configure an after-hours schedule.
    However, the “Edit schedule” option actually modifies the business hours only.
    After-hours are implicitly defined as any time outside the configured business hours.

    Problem:
    Customers often misunderstand this behavior and assume:

    There is a separate after-hours schedule configuration.
    They can directly customize after-hours timing independently.

    This leads to:

    Misconfiguration…

  3. Much like how "Call Queues" work, I want the manager to edit the settings of announcement only extensions as much as they please. Our workaround is giving the users the username and passwords for these extensions, but it would be much easier if the user could edit things from their profiles (i.e. preventing the need for the user to log out of their account and log into the announcement only extension).

  4. Currently setting 'When all members click ‘Ignore call’, or are busy or unavailable' on a call queue lumps busy and unavailable together. Some customers would like to have a separate use case for either scenario.

    Example:

    All members busy - continue to wait in queue until maximum wait timer expires
    No members available (logged in/accepting calls for that queue) - route to an alternative extension as a 'No Agents Available' tree

    Ideally this is separated into two separate entities as per attached image; one for all members click ignore call or are busy, and one for all members are unavailable…

  5. Request to enable specific timing intervals of 35 and 40 seconds within the "Wait time in queue" configuration. This is a business requirement for the Director of Patient Services to provide more granular control over call routing and escalation logic for center queues.

  6. There should be an option to create a workflow builder when the call is at the Call queue phase since missed calls would not be detected by the members if the calls came from the queue.

  7. While Maximum Concurrency allows agents to receive multiple queue calls, answering a second call currently forces the first caller onto hold automatically. We need a toggle to disable this Auto-Hold behavior. This would allow an agent to answer a second concurrent call and keep both audio paths active simultaneously (Instant Merge), eliminating the manual "Hold then Merge" steps and providing a seamless experience for high-volume dispatchers and receptionists.

  10. Add the length of time a caller has been on the line as a third option on the caller ID display under Call Handling & members - display settings. This would be beneficial for calls that are transferred.

  11. It would be a great feature if we had the ability to automatically turn off accept queue calls on the admin portal. Alternatively, if we could set a condition to automatically turn off accept queue calls for each member of the call queue, that would also be beneficial.

  15. Requested Enhancement:
    Please consider adding support for:

    Enabling/disabling Call Queue call forwarding directly from deskphones
    Allowing external number forwarding for Call Queue extensions without requiring Admin Portal access.
    Providing easier operational management for non-admin users handling temporary forwarding scenarios.

  16. When a Call Queue is configured to display Caller Name and/or Caller ID, the RingCentral app does not clearly show the caller’s phone number during an active queued call. Instead, the display prioritizes the caller name, which makes it difficult or impossible for agents to see the actual calling number.
    Ideally, the phone number should always be displayed alongside the caller name, similar to how direct inbound calls behave. This is especially important for:

    Verifying repeat callers

    Identifying spam or known numbers

    Supporting call handling workflows that rely on phone number visibility

    As a comparison, direct inbound calls to a…

  17. Enhanced call queue functionality in RingCentral to allow more flexible call distribution within a single batch of members.

    Example / Use Case:

    In Batch 2, there are 10 members.

    The desired call flow:

    The first call rings simultaneously to 5 members.

    Subsequent calls follow a fixed order / round-robin distribution among the remaining 5 members.

    Within the batch, there should be a simultaneous group of members and a fixed order group, allowing a mix of simultaneous and sequential call routing.

    Benefit:
    This feature would allow more granular control of call distribution in call queues, improving response times and ensuring that…

  18. Summary:
    Requesting an enhancement to increase the time window for callers to press “1” to request a callback, or to allow callback requests at any point while the caller is waiting in the queue.

    Current Behavior:
    The callback option is only available during a limited prompt window. Based on the RingCentral support article, callers must press “1” within five seconds of the callback prompt.

    If the caller presses “1” outside of this window, the system interprets the input as an extension instead of a callback request. If Extension 1 does not exist in the customer’s phone system, the caller receives…

  19. We found a situation with transferring a call to a call queue where an "ask first/warm" transfer functions differently than a "cold/blind" transfer.

    If a User "cold/blind" transfers a call to a Call Queue and nobody answers, it goes into the user's voicemail who transferred the call instead of the Call Queue voicemail. We don't approve of this. It should go into the Call Queue's voicemail.

  20. If we don't get to the customer's callback request within the maximum wait time of 30 minutes we just get a missed call notification with no phone number to call the customer back, so that means upset customers who are still waiting on a callback. If we could successfully send the callback to a different queue instead of getting a missed call notification that would fix it. I do have the ability to set the settings to do exactly what I described but it does not work, it only gives me a missed call and never transfers the callback to…
