Display Ring Group (what option was selected) on phone

[rhys100]

Im using Yealink Phones and running two businesses.

We have one number incoming.

Customers select 1 for business one
customers select 2 for business two.

Is there a way on the phone the person who picks up can see if they selected business one or two?

Currently using ring groups, but it doesnt show on the phone what ring group they selected.

Hello @rhys100

Assuming you are running V15 you can navigate to contacts and under options select Prepend Name under the Add Group, Queue or DID/DDI Names to Caller ID
This should prepend the name of the Ring group in front of the callers number

Hi, I did this and it works for the softphone, but it does not show on my phyiscal phones.

I am using Yealink T48G and T46g

Are you testing this from a phone number that is present in the directory?
If so, the Yealink phone is looking this number up and putting in the name from it's directory.
This is done after 3cx Prepends the Group Name.

Yes you are correct, was calling from my mobile. Seems you are right, if contact is in address book just says the name. Cheers
