We are moving away from Skype to RingCentral.   I’m wondering if Ring can show “away” in the Status more accurately.  Currently it appears that a person’s status remains green/available until a timeout puts them as Offline or they physically log out or disconnect from Wi-Fi.  It would be nice if there is an in-between “Away from keyboard - Yellow” status, that would indicate the person is logged on, but is not currently active.  Skype indicates this away status when a person locks their screen or times out.  Our employees find it very difficult to interpret “Offline” as Ring portrays it. 

One useful feature is a timer that has the time the user was away.  This would help too.  If a user showed away for 5 minutes, others would know that they are close.  Also an end to a lunch break could be calculated for availability.
