If the agent is partially logged out, a red padlock icon is displayed. Examples of issues that could result in a partial logout are:

  • The agent closes the browser tab without logging out.

  • The agent's computer crashes.

  • The agent logs out from the Agent Toolbar but was not logged out from the phone (which should happen automatically).

You will be prompted to confirm the logout process. Click OK to confirm or Cancel to discontinue the process.

 Change Password

This feature is used to change your Workspace password. If you were assigned a password by your Workspace Administrator, you can use this feature to change your password. 

Note

If your administration team has enabled the Force Password Change feature then you will be obliged to change your password when you first log in.

Password complexity is dictated by the Organisation Security Settings, which are set by your administration team

Use this dialog to change your current Login Password.

    You can not include your User Name or your Login Name as part of the password.

  3. Re-enter the new password. The two entries must be identical. 

Messages

A Notification can be displayed in one of three formats. This is how to view notifications that were distributed in the message format:

  • New messages will be flagged by a red icon over your username located at the top right-hand side of the Workspace

  • Messages are given an expiry date after which they will no longer be visible here

  • New, unread messages have an orange sidebar

  • Click the Read icon to indicate that a message has been read


4. Search dialled numbers

The Cloud Contact Centre Solution maintains records of all the phone numbers which have been dialled and their associated details. This Search Dialled Numbers feature allows you to search for a specific number that has been dialled either by the system or by the agents via manual call dialling.

  1. Enter a number to be used for the search. For example, enter "02" to get a list of all records involving phone numbers with that prefix.

    Note

    You can use one of several number formats: e.g.

    • in London, E164 format +44 20 7379 4334 or National format 020 7379 4334

    • in Singapore, E164 format +65 6 836 4100 or National format 6 836 4100

    • in Canberra, E164 format +61 2 6216 0100 or National format 02 6216 0100.

  2. Click Search. A list of the 100 most recently dialled matching contact interaction records, for all campaigns, is displayed. This list shows all matching numbers that have been dialled by the system, whether automatically by the predictive dialler, or manually, using the preview dialler or the manual call facility. The list shows the result of each dial attempt, as many dial attempts may not actually result in an answered call.

  3. Enter additional numbers, e.g. "0289", to narrow the search for matching records.

The data displayed for each dial attempt is:

Column

Description

Date & Time

The date and time stamp when the call was made

Campaign

The name of the campaign associated with the call

Lead ID

The unique identifying code for the lead associated with the call

Phone Number

The number dialled

Outcome

The call outcome


5. Password Reset

On the login page to the workspace a password reset link is available. This feature is only available to Workspace Users. Agent Toolbar Users are not able to reset their passwords. Agents wanting to reset their passwords must contact a workspace user with the correct access level to request password changes.


To take advantage of this feature: 

  • A default email channel needs to be defined and working

  • The user must have an email address in their profile

  • Only Active users can reset their password
     

When the user clicks the reset password link:

  • The user receives a temporary password reset email

  • A direct link to login without typing the temporary password manually in the password reset email

  • The user will be required to change their password when they log in with their temporary password

  • The temporary password is valid for 24 hours only

To enable this feature please contact your platform administrator.

Please note: User configured as LDAP should not be able to reset the password using this feature.
