Possible Causes

This article focuses on cause #3, as it's the most common cause of this issue.

  1. The agent's ring time was set to ring once (duration of 5 seconds).
    • This is typically rectified on the majority of agents by adjusting their ring times.
      1. Within RingCentral/ACO, go to Users > Select User > Call Handling and Forwarding.
        • Note the devices and their ring durations.
      2. Also check to see that the first phone set to ring in this settings menu is the phone the agent is currently using.
        • In the example below, the agent's softphone/app will ring first, and then the desk phone.

        • If they're only using their desk phone at this time, they won't get an opportunity to get the call before it rolls to the next agent.

  2. The RingCentral network packets were received out of order and/or delayed.
    • Xima has taken some liberties with the backend on how to handle this packet ordering a bit better.
    • Should be resolved on newer CCaaS builds.
  3. The customer legitimately hangs up while the call is presenting to the agent (the most common cause of this issue).
    • In the examples below, we show the RingCentral/ACO output showing the calls in question. Each call corresponds to this cause.
      1. Agent 1: the call was 2 seconds in length.

      2. Agent 2: the call was 4 seconds in length, so it likely only rang once due to the customer hanging up before it was able to be answered by the agent.

      3. Agent 3: the call was also 4 seconds in length, allowing for only one ring.

    • To help provide proof of this occurrence, the RingCentral/ACO output is located within the login portal.
      1. Navigate to Reports > Call Log.

      2. Filter based on the date and the agent in question reporting the issue, and check the total call length.
