  1. Description:
    Within the Action section of the Admin Portal, fax activity is currently displayed as “Phone Call.” This makes it difficult for administrators to quickly distinguish fax activity from regular voice calls.

    Requested Enhancement:
    Update the Action field so that fax-related activity is explicitly labeled as “Fax” instead of “Phone Call.”

    Use Case:
    Administrators frequently review activity records to identify and differentiate voice calls from fax transactions. Clearly labeling fax activity would make it easier to review records, troubleshoot issues, and identify fax-related activity without having to open each individual record.

    Expected Behavior:
    When an activity is related to a…

  2. Company uses API integration for faxing. However users are still able to fax from RC desktop app and bypass. Without disabling the fax features for their users, they want to just disable access to faxing from the client

  4. Subject: Request for independent Fax/Voice routing logic on Main Company Numbers

    Description:
    Currently, when a custom call forwarding rule is applied to the Main Company Number (e.g., forwarding all voice traffic to a 3rd-party call center or external answering service), it often disrupts or breaks the fax routing protocol. This creates a conflict where faxes are either rejected or incorrectly forwarded as voice calls to the external destination.

    Proposed Feature/Functionality:
    I am requesting a "Split Routing" enhancement for the Main Company Number that allows for the following:
    Voice-Only Forwarding: The ability to apply custom rules/forwarding to 3rd-party numbers that only…

  5. Business Need:
    We would like to request the ability to upload custom fax cover page templates and map their fields to the existing cover page fields available in the RingCentral Fax interface.

    Current Limitation:
    Currently, administrators and users can upload a custom fax cover page, but the document must already be prefilled with static information. There is no option to map placeholders within the custom template to the fields that users complete when sending a fax (such as Sender Name, Recipient Name, Company, Subject, Comments, Date, Fax Number, etc.).

  7. We would like to request the ability to enable the Print to Fax feature within the RingCentral app without requiring an ATA device to be set up. Our goal is to allow RingCentral applications to send fax documents directly to designated printers so that they are printed immediately, bypassing the need for any ATA hardware.

  8. We are requesting that RingCentral modify its data retention policy to prevent the automated, permanent deletion of Sent Faxes and their corresponding recipient metadata.

    Currently, RingCentral's policy dictates that Sent Faxes are permanently purged from the servers after only 30 days, with no option for users to extend this timeframe natively within the app interface.

    This short window creates a massive issue for business continuity, tracking, and basic customer service. If an employee needs to look back at a previous transmission to confirm exactly who received a document, the record is completely wiped out if it falls outside of that…

  12. I would like to request an increase to the current three-device login limit for RingCentral Fax. Many users need access from multiple devices, such as desktops, laptops, and mobile phones, and the current limit can be restrictive. Allowing more device logins would improve flexibility and productivity while supporting today's multi-device work environments.

  13. Customer is requesting the ability to block incoming faxes that do not have Caller ID. Current system limitation: only available option is Call Screening for “No Caller ID,” which applies to both voice calls and fax traffic. Customer specifically wants fax-only Caller ID filtering without impacting incoming calls.

  15. For example, when a user accesses the Fax tab and clicks “Send New Fax,” MFA authentication should be required before they can proceed with sending the fax.
    This added security measure will help ensure that only authorized users are able to send outbound faxes.

  17. Summary:
    Request the ability to create dedicated forwarding rules specifically for fax transmissions received on company numbers, independent of voice call routing rules.

    Business Need:
    Currently, inbound faxes to a company number follow the same call routing rules as voice calls. This creates a limitation for organizations that forward their main company number to a call queue, particularly during after-hours, resulting in intermittent or unsuccessful fax forwarding to external destinations.

    Providing separate fax routing rules would allow administrators to define how fax traffic is handled without impacting voice call routing, improving reliability and flexibility for businesses that rely on fax…

  18. Description:
    Currently, phone numbers configured as Fax-only do not appear in the "Called Number" selection when creating or editing Site-level Custom Rules (Site Call Handling) in the admin portal.

    However, testing confirms that custom rules do successfully apply to fax traffic when the number is temporarily set to "Voice and Fax," added to the rule, and then reverted back to "Fax-only." This indicates that the backend supports fax interactions within custom rules, but the UI restricts selection based on number type.

    Problem Statement:
    This creates a usability gap where:

    Fax-only numbers are not selectable in the UI
    But are technically…

  19. We would like to request an enhancement to improve the compatibility and validation handling of special characters, Unicode symbols, and emojis within user extension display names, specifically for RingCentral Fax services.

    In a recent support investigation, outbound fax functionality consistently failed for a user who had an emoji included in their extension display name. After removing the emoji and refreshing the user session, outbound faxing immediately resumed normal operation.

    While emojis and Unicode characters are generally accepted in user profile names across the platform, certain backend fax services or integrations may not fully support these characters, leading to unexpected service…
