2. User Management

Your user account has a role as either attendant, supervisor, or system administrator. The role will determine the rights and functionality within the Web-client and Web-admin application.

With the attendant role you can perform all contact handling tasks such as answering and transferring calls.

With the supervisor role you can in addition to the user role run reports and maintain the email- and chat templates. A supervisor can also change the actual queue status by opening or closing incoming call queues.

With the administrator role you can in addition to the supervisor role create or modify user accounts and assign roles.



2.1 Add or modify a user account

A new user account can be created by clicking the Add a user button. Existing user accounts can be edited by selecting the user account from the list.


User accounts are defined by:
Name: This is a descriptive name that is shown throughout the application, on other attendant applications and within the reports

Username: This is the name that is used upon login.

Password: Defines the user password. Note that the password should match the password policy as defined by the system administrator.

User enabled: When checked it is possible to log in to the application. When unchecked access to the application is prohibited.

User is Locked Out: Gets checked after several unsuccessful log in attempts. When locked out it is not possible to log in to the application anymore, regardless if the correct password was entered. An administrator can remove the check from this value so that the user can log in again.

Allow temporarily removal from queue assignment: When checked the user can temporarily remove him-/herself from the queues that he/she has been assigned to.


When a user has been created the next tabs will be seen, and queues can be assigned to the user.



2.2 Assigned queues

The user can handle multiple queues. To assign queues to a user account select the queue in the available list, and press the + button. The queue is then added to the assigned queues list. The user will from now on receive calls from this queue.

To remove a queue assignment, select the assigned call queue and press the unlink button.

The user will now not receive calls from this queue anymore.

2.5 Deleting a user account

User accounts can be deleted by selecting the user account and clicking the Delete user button. This will mark the user account as deleted so that the user cannot log in to the application anymore.

To completely delete the user from the system toggle “Show deleted user” from the “User management” view and select “Delete permanently”. Now the user and all the call history of that user is removed. In this same view it is also possible to restore a deleted user.


3. Queues

The Queues define all call queues which can be handled by the operator. You can see which calls will be offered to you and you are able to pick-up and answer a call from the queue.

The Queues view allows a user with a system administrator role to create or modify queues for incoming calls.

A queue can be entitled as the default queue using the button Default. Calls that do not have queue information will get queued into the default queue. This setting only applies to certain PBX systems.



4. Email Templates

Email templates are used to compose a new email message with or without an active call. The template allows to enter content for the subject and body text, as static text or from parameter values that can refer to the contact entry or active call.

A user with an admin role can administer the available email and chat templates. The email template panel is opened from the dashboard or from the menu item when clicking an email icon on a contact.

When a parameter isn't available at the time of sending the message, it will be left empty, i.e. when sending an email when not in a call, the selected line is empty, and so are all those parameters.
Please, note that when an incorrect template body is specified the input dialog will show "Input string was not in a correct format". The save button will be disabled in such case.

Our calendar functions allow a user to create or modify queue calendars. With a queue calendar it is possible to define open and closing times for call queues.

A queue calendar can be created by clicking the Add a calendar button. Existing calendars can be edited by selecting the calendar from the list.

Below example will only open the queue where it is assigned from Monday till Friday 08:00 till 17:30.
Queue calendars are defined by:

This is a descriptive name that will be shown in the Calendar dropdown field on the queue management form.

Daily Opening Times
Specifies time ranges and days when a queue is open. Multiple ranges can be specified. The opening times may combine from several lines. For example, to specify all days open between 9-12 and 13-17 except Sundays and Saturday only in the morning enter 2 lines:

Line 1: All days except Sunday from 9 to 12

Line 2: All days except Sunday and Saturday from 13 to 17

Always close on
Allows to explicit specify a date when the queue is closed. Use this field to close the queue on days like bank holidays or Christmas.



7. Contacts

The directory can be imported from a formatted comma separated text file (CSV).




7.1 Import contacts

Open the upload form using the button Select fileunder import contacts

Select the CSV data file. Note that the field separator should be specified in this form as

Well in the Delimiter column. Common values are a comma or semicolon. The default value is retrieved from the Region and Language settings as specified in the OS.

Press the button Import. The data file is now uploaded to the server and will be parsed. The progress can be monitored in the task scheduler.
Please, note that during the actual upload of the CSV data file the directory is locked.
TIP!
First create an export to see the file format structure.




7.2 File format

The first line of the file must be the header line. Column names or case-insensitive and any column not listed here is ignored. Invalid data in a column causes that data to not be imported. As long as at least one column has valid data, the import process tries to add it to the Directory, providing the entry passes all validation.



7.3 Export contacts

Directory data can be exported to a comma separated data file (CSV) for example to create a backup or to manually edit the data in Microsoft Excel. After editing the CSV data file it can be imported into Connecsy Enterprise again.

Specify the filename for the export.

Specify the field delimiter. Common values are a comma or semicolon. The default value is

retrieved from the Region and Language settings as specified in the OS.

Press the Exportbutton.
The exported data file will contain all columns including the ExternalId column.
Please note that the ExternalId field is filled with a pseudo key if no external key has been specified. When importing this data file, the changed records get properly updated. When the ExternalId value is not present or does not match the original values, these rows cannot be matched with the existing directory entry and thus a new record will be created in the directory. This might lead to duplicate information.



8. Directory Management

Here you will be able to view, edit or deleted record in the Connecsy cloud database. Be aware that records imported via the task scheduler will overwrite your changes.



9. Reports

10. Call Park Location

Connecsy uses RingCentral public parking spots to park a call. By default all parked calls initiated by Connecsy are visible inside the parking list of all logged on attendants.

Location based parking enables to limit the visibility parked calls inside the parking list of a logged on attendant user to only those call that are parked by an attendant user that has been assigned to the same location as that of the logged on attendant user. For example: say attendant Monique has been assigned the location “Amsterdam”. If attendant Peter - which has also been assigned to location “Amsterdam” parks a call, it will be visible in the parked call lists of both Monique and Peter. But if attendant Esther who has been assigned to location “Zeist” parks a call, it will only be visible to the attendants assigned to location “Zeist” and not to Monique and Peter.
Please not that if you don’t assign a location to a user, this user will only see their own parked calls and the parked calls from all the other users who don’t have assigned a location to them.


To configure the Park location go to the Custom data under the User management for each user and fill in the desired location each user will monitor. Only one location can be added.
