Outbound Dialling Option
NOTE: Your preferences are cleared when you log out of the RingCentral for Salesforce app but will persist if you log out from the Salesforce instance without logging out from the application.
• Call with Softphone
Selecting this option opens the RingCentral for Desktop app so you can make a call. If you select this option, make sure that the
RingCentral Desktop app is installed, running and logged in using the same login credentials.
• Connect from a different phone
When this option is selected, you will be prompted to enter a phone number. When an outbound call is made, RingCentral will call the phone number you entered before connecting the called party.
• Calling Press 1 to start a call
When you make an outgoing call from your specified phone number, RingCentral will first call you at your number. Checking this option will require you to press 1 before the call is connected to the other party. If this option is not enabled, RingCentral will call your number and the dialed number simultaneously.

Logs
There are 2 Logs options that can be enabled to automatically create call and SMS logs. Enable or disable the following settings under the Logs section:
• Auto-create Call Logs
When this option is selected, a call log will automatically be saved to Salesforce.com for any inbound or outbound call. The log will be updated whenever you type notes or change the related objects. If auto-creation of call logs is disabled, the log will be created or updated only when you press the Save Log button. When this option is unchecked, a call log will only be created if you press the Save button in the logging area during or after the call.
• Auto-create SMS Logs
RingCentral automatically creates a call log in the Activity History for SMS conversations when this option is enabled. The messages exchanged with the same contact/lead/opportunity within the same day will be saved within one log. If this option is not selected, an SMS log will only be created when you click Save when viewing the SMS conversation.
