Hi everyone,

We are currently managing a 3CX instance running V20 Update 9 and need some guidance on configuring custom Music on Hold for a specific department/company without affecting the other departments.

Our requirement is to assign custom hold music to a specific department, while keeping the existing Music on Hold settings unchanged for all other departments.

We checked the System Prompts → Manage Prompts section in the Admin Console, where we can manage prompt files using the Prompt ID, File, and Description fields. However, we are unsure whether modifying or adding a prompt in this section would allow us to assign Music on Hold exclusively to one department.

We also understand that department specific Music on Hold may be available in a later 3CX update, but our production system is currently running V20 Update 9, and the newer update is not yet available as a stable release in our Updates section.

Could anyone advise on the following?

  1. Is there a supported way to configure custom Music on Hold for only one department on V20 Update 9?
  2. Can this be achieved through System Prompts or another supported configuration option?
  3. Are there any recommended workarounds that would not affect Music on Hold for other departments?
  4. If this functionality requires a later update, is upgrading the only supported solution?
We would appreciate any guidance or recommendations from anyone who has encountered a similar scenario.

Thank you!
 
MOH per department is a feature available in U10 (currently in RC2), so the full release should not be far behind.

Hi Charles,

By any chance, do you know when the stable release of the latest 3CX update (Update 10) is expected to be available?
