In a sub menu, I have set up key one to go to an external contact, but it does not ring. Instead, the system plays a message saying the person is not available. However, if I put the same external contact directly in the main auto receptionist, it does ring the external contact. Is there any solution or workaround for this issue?

Hello, I’m having an issue with Zoom Phone Auto Receptionist routing. If the main menu is configured so that pressing a key (for example, Press 1) routes directly to an external phone number, the call rings correctly. However, if Press 2 on the main menu routes to another Auto Receptionist (a sub-menu), and within that sub-menu Press 1 routes to External Number 1 and Press 2 routes to External Number 2, neither external number rings. Instead, the caller hears a message saying the person is not available. The same external numbers work when assigned directly on the main menu, but not when called from a sub-menu. Is this a limitation, bug, or configuration issue? Any solution or workaround would be appreciated.

Got this message from a user this afternoon. He's a VP and was extremely unhappy that his Teams meeting was being overheard by a caller.

"I was on a Teams Call and a call came into ADS and the call was transferred to me. I didn’t even know it; my phone never Rang! So I didn’t accept or Decline!! Very Strange. Alan has already looked at my Zoom settings and is asking Zoom for help…"

Any thoughts? My executive team is freaking out

How do I setup a call queue to first ring two people simultaneously, and if no answer then ring to a 3rd person? I see it shown as an option in the call queue setup section (see included screenshot below, but I can't find directions on how to set it up that way. 

Hi there, we began using Zoom phone ~1 year ago for our small business and have never been fully satisfied. I find the set up and customization of features confusing and don't have anyone else on my team who can help me with it. I would greatly appreciate set up guidance and would be happy to pay someone for their expertise. Some context on what we do and what I'm looking for:

We're a specialty auto repair shop open M-F 8:30am to 5:30pm. We field many calls a day from retail customers and individuals at other businesses we work with. Calls are typically to schedule appointments or ask for updates on repair/parts/etc.

Our General Manager is responsible for answering calls. He has a company-owned iPhone with Zoom installed on it. If he's unavailable, the calls ring through to my account.

One big problem: our GM's phone no loner has a cellular plan, so if he's not on wifi he can't receive Zoom calls. He's often on the road visiting customers and needs to be able to receive calls during those visits. 

What I'm looking for:

1. Fix our GM's need to be on wifi. Do I need to also get a cellular plan? Is there a way to have cellular internet only so the Zoom phone is always accessible? Any other suggested solutions?

2. Have calls ring first to my GM and then to me if he doesn't answer after a certain amount of time.

3. Have voicemail box set up with a professional answering message.

4. Direct customers to voicemail via a professional automated message if it is outside of our operating hours. 

5. Anything else to make us appear more professional to callers.

Thank you in advance.
