Call Attributes

You can define categories of information related to a call such as User reference or User phone. Analysts can access and record information in these categories from the Call Details window by selecting the Attributes explorer option.

For example, if you create a ‘User Reference’ attribute, analysts can add the reference number(s).

When you create an attribute, the related call table is updated with the attribute field. When an analyst adds values for a call attribute, the tables are updated with the attribute values.
