Answer an Incoming Call

Upon logging in to the portal with Web Phone enabled, you are now able to start making and receiving calls.

1. Pick up a call​

  • When there is an incoming call, a window will pop up at the bottom right corner of your screen showing the caller number.
  • Press:
    • Green button to accept the call.
    • Red button to reject the call.
  • The caller's name and number are now displayed sequentially for direct incoming calls.
  • If the caller name matches the caller ID, they are merged into a single row for a cleaner view.
  • A "Call Recording" label will be shown if the call recording feature is enabled by your license.

* For internal calls to an extension, you can now see who the call is directed to.

2. Talking and ACW​

During the Talking state, you will see an “End Call” button and for ACW (After Call Work) state, you will see an “ End ACW” button. 

  • If you click “End ACW” without submitting a note, the system will automatically save whatever you entered in the note.
  • ACW will apply for both Contact Center - Incoming Call, Callback Call, Campaign call pop up.
  • ACW can only be ended when:
    • Clicking “End ACW”
    • Clicking “Finish” button on popup
    • Making a new call (outbound call)
    • Hitting time out

Note:​

Color of Talking/ACW will change according to the user status:

  • Available - Green
  • Busy - Red
  • Away - Yellow
  • Offline - Grey

 

When the user state is Free/Dialing​
