New Feature: pascom Global and Team Call Histories

pascom Uncovered - New & Improved Queue Call Tracking

Staying on top of and keeping track of all your calls is essential to business productivity and customer service. With pascom, tracking all your calls is easy no matter whether they are direct on your office number or via a call queue that you are a member of. In order to help our customers and their users quickly and efficiently keep on top of their calls, we’ve added a host of new functionality to our call history tools.

Understanding the pascom call history tool

First things first, with the new call history tools, we have updated the existing tool to add more visible, easy to understand information. We have also added a number of new filter options as well as a new call logs area which is specific to individual call queues (Team Calls). To make this clear to understand, we will now refer to the global call history i.e. all calls on your extension and the team call history i.e. calls to your extension via a call queue.

How to use the global call history

To access your global call history simply click on the “history” symbol in the menu ribbon. The icon is found either on the top left of the desktop app or in the middle of the ribbon at the bottom of the app if you are on your mobile or if you have resized your desktop app.

Once open, your complete call history will be displayed and will allow you to track incoming, outgoing and missed calls to your extension either directly or via any teams (queues) that you are a member of.

Each call entry is colour coded to indicate answered, missed or answered by someone else. Furthermore, the arrow indicates the direction of the call as shown below:

Colour Code Description
answered outgoing call
answered incoming call
diverted / answered by someone else
missed incoming call
unanswered outgoing call

Alongside the colour code and direction indicator, each call entry includes the number (or phone book entry name), a text description. Queue calls via a team are highlighted with the headset symbol and team name and include who answered a call if you it wasn’t you:

How to set and save call history filters

For some of you, all this information maybe too much - particularly if you are a member of multiple call queues. Not to worry, we thought of that as well and so we introduced a new filtering tool to help you filter your global call history.

1. Go to your call history

As described above, open your global call history within either pascom desktop app or mobile app. At the top, below the “Call History” header, click on Filter Options.

This will open to following filter menu where you can customise and save which calls you want to see in your global call history:

2. Customise which calls are important to you

The top three settings allow to you control which call types are important in terms of origin, call direction, and result.

Filter Description
Call type view only internal calls from colleagues, external calls or both call types
Call direction view only incoming, outgoing or both directions
Call result view only answered calls, missed calls or display all calls regardless of result

3. Customise which call types are important to you

The next settings allow you to further customise which types of calls you wish to see in your global call history. For example, system calls and voicemails aren’t that important to you, then turn them off by clicking the toggle switch to the left position as shown here:

Toggle call filters on and off

4. Customise which team calls are important to you

Finally, the last section of the filter menu lists all the teams that you are a member of and allows you to control whether calls via these teams should be displayed in the global call history or not:

Filter teams in global call history

Once your done customising your filter settings, simply close the filter options screen via the red X button and you will see that your global call history will now only show you the calls that are important to you.

How to access specific team call histories

If you are a member of one or more call queue teams, you will be able to view the call history for each individual team that you are a member of.

1. Select the desired queue team

To access the call history for a specific team that you are a member of, the first step select the desired team from the roster within the pascom UC client. Doing so will open the default Team Overview window:

pascom Team Overview

Within the Team Overview, you have all the tools required to keep track of other team members, see who is paused, log in and out of the team, pause yourself, monitor calls waiting, and access the call history for the the team.

2. Open the team call history

Next, click the Team Call History tab in order to open the call logs for this specific call queue:

Access pascom Team Call History

3. Search the team call history

Once you are in the Team Call History view a search field will appear above the call logs. This search can be used to find specific calls to the selected Team.

4. Using the team call history filters

By clicking the Filter Options button it is possible to setup custom filters that are specific for each team that you are a member of:

Custom pascom team call history filters

As with the Global Call History, it is possible to customise which call types, directions and result are displayed within the Team Call History. Furthermore, it is also possible to filter more specific call types such as voicemails, system calls etc.

When we make decisions regarding new systems, we want to make sure that we have both reins firmly in our hands. Therefore, it is essential to implement systems which adhere to OpenStandards, allowing us to seamlessly connect and integrate these to our existing systems. In addition, we require reliable suppliers, who are ready to customise their solutions to our requirements, which is why we chose pascom who offer exactly this service and more.

Kassandra Martin, Deputy Director & Reception Manager
We chose pascom as our telephony solution in part due to the scalability, flexibility and ease of deployment. In addition, the pascom platform functions perfectly with our digital guest directories in our rooms whilst offering the largest range of features at easily the most cost effective price compared to alternative solutions. A further deciding factor was the wide choice of compatible hardware that choosing pascom afforded us.

Markus Gerlitzki, Managing Director
My team and I pride ourselves on the level of excellent care we provide our guests. However, it can be distracting when the phone is always ringing and we constantly answer the same questions. Thanks to the pascom phone system, we have been able to setup an automated self-service hotline which allows guests to quickly get answers and if required callers can be quickly and efficiently routed to an an employee. The system greatly improves customer service with around the clock answers around opening times and courses and therefore reduces the strain on employees, ensuring we are free to cater to the needs of our on-site guests.
