Feature Enhancement Request: Generate Post-Call State for Bad Number Calls
Feature Request
Enhance RingCX to generate and update the appropriate post-call state when an outbound call is classified as a Bad Number, instead of ending the call without a standard post-call state.
Current Behavior
Engineering confirmed that the current behavior is expected. When a destination number is identified as a Bad Number—such as an invalid, unreachable, disconnected, or otherwise non-callable number—the call does not proceed through the normal call flow.
Because the call is terminated or classified at an earlier stage, the normal post-call processing is not triggered, and no post-call state is generated or updated.
Customer Impact
The absence of a post-call state for Bad Number calls may limit the customer's ability to:
• Track the final outcome of these calls consistently.
• Apply the same post-call processing used for other outbound call outcomes.
• Maintain complete and consistent call disposition/reporting data.
• Accurately distinguish Bad Number outcomes from calls where post-call processing was not completed.
Requested Enhancement
• Provide a post-call state or equivalent call outcome for calls classified as Bad Number.
Ideally, RingCX should:
• Identify the call as a Bad Number.
• Terminate the call according to the existing Bad Number handling.
• Generate an appropriate post-call state or disposition indicating the Bad Number outcome.
• Make this outcome available for applicable reporting, analytics, and downstream processing.
Expected Behavior
• When an outbound call is classified as a Bad Number, RingCX should provide a clearly identifiable post-call outcome, such as Bad Number, Invalid Number, or another appropriate system-defined disposition.
This would allow customers to consistently track and report all outbound call outcomes, including calls that fail before entering the normal call flow.
Business Value
• Providing a post-call state for Bad Number calls would improve call outcome tracking, reporting accuracy, and automation capabilities, while giving customers a more complete view of outbound dialing activity.
Request: Please evaluate the feasibility of generating a post-call state/disposition for Bad Number calls and consider this behavior as a RingCX product enhancement.
