Features - Calls
The calls view provides details about calls which are in progress at the user's devices or softphone. Where available, users will be able to control the call directly from the screen.
​
Dial pad:
The dial-pad is available when the user's devices are idle or can be toggled on during a call to enter DTMF when accessing voicemail or other interactive services.
​
Number can be entered via mouse clicks, touch screen (hardware allowing) or by simply using the keyboard's number pad while the dial-pad is on screen.
​
History:
The History area provides details off all calls which you have been involved in, this will include calls made/received on any of your phone system devices.
​
Outgoing calls and incoming calls which were answered are displayed in black, missed incoming calls are displayed in red.

The filter icon above the history lists provides a quick way to switch between different call types; All Calls (Default), Missed, Dialled & Received.
The search bar at the top of the application can also be used to filter the history items displayed in the grid, just enter 3 or more numbers/characters to initiate a search.
​
Recording Playback:
If call recording is enabled on your system, any calls that were recorded should be displayed in the history with a play icon just before the call icon on the right of the entry. Clicking on this icon will launch your default browser with a URL which takes you directly to the Call Session view for this call.
From the call session view you can view additional information about the call and also play back any recordings associated with the call.
