Dialer Features for Call Center Agents

The Dialer application provides a range of features tailored for call center agents, offering quick access to status management, automation, and post-call actions directly from the dialer interface.


1. Agent Status Display

At the bottom-left corner of the dialer window, the agent's current status is displayed based on the last dialed status code.

Important Note: These statuses are stored locally on the dialer. For example, if an agent logs in from the dialer using *41 and logs out from a separate device (e.g., desk phone) using *42, the dialer will still show the status as "Online (Agent Logged In)", but the status for the agent will be updated in the system.

To manually reset or clear the status on the dialer, the agent can dial *11.

Best practice is to log in only from the dialer, and that's also from one location.


Available Agent Status Dial Codes

Agents can change their status by dialing the following feature codes from the dialer:
