If I am picking up the call, I have no idea who Chad, Jamey, or Dave were actually trying to get ahold of because it will not tell me.  Our old phone system let me know that if Terry was calling for Rick, I could pick up the phone and say, “You have reached Rick "LN removed" desk this is Lauren, How can I help you.”

How can we get this setup correctly.  If anyone in the Call Queue see that Bob is calling for Joe.  Joe is not in the office, but Susan sees that the call is for Joe and can answer it and answer confidently.

Hi All,

I currently have setup an Auto-Receptionist to handle incoming external lines. This has a greeting set to advise that calls are recorded for quality purposes etc. This then routes to a call queue that has the team setup to answer.

We used to have it setup so the external lines were going direct to the call queue with the greeting setup there as well. We found that if another office transferred the call, the customer would hear the call recording advice more than once. This was very frustrating to them. The good thing about this setup was the level of reporting that we would get on which external line did they call, the number of abandoned calls during the call recording announcement etc. Unfortunately this level of detail has been lost as the A/R reporting is no where near as good.

My question is if there is a way to satisfy both requirements ie to have the C/R announcement play only once on a call (regardless of whether it is transferred back to the call queue or not) and provide the level of report detail (i tried to replace the A/R with another call queue but to no avail).

I know the originating call is traced so maybe a feature request to add this to the Org settings as a default message of incoming calls?

Cheers,

James

When we transfer a call within the company, when it goes from an extension (eg. 101 to 102), the recording prompt is played again when the transfer has been completed. Is there a way to stop this prompted to only happen when the call starts and not when it is transferred? We have found that clients do not like this disrupting their conversations when they have been transferred, as they are already aware that the call is being recorded. 

There is not currently a way to use the API to log users in and out of the call ques, if managers want to log their user in or out of a call que, I must now give them access to the administrative side of Zoom Phone, whereas if I had API access, I could make them a light weight application for them to sign their users in and out of. 

Please can we add to the API to be able to log users in and out of call ques so I can give the managers this access.

We have a team in the Philippines and Australia, but the team in the Philippines is unable to send text messages from their Australian phone numbers. 

Why is this? 

How do we fix this? 

They're able to receive calls on the Aussie number but can't send text messages.
