Make a Callback from a Transaction

Some transactions are left unassigned. The supervisors need to know if the unassigned transaction is followed up with a call or email. System supports callback feature for the transaction.

  • From a transaction, the agent can make a call to the phone number provided by the customer. 
    • System will trigger a callback call to the agent's enabled device and connect to the customer's number.  
  • Pre-fill customer number (if any). Allow agents to edit/input customer number.  
    • Suggest the agent to mark the phone number as Verified.
  • The agent can choose which device will ring when the incoming call comes in.
    • A callback call is disabled if no device is found. Inform the agent to activate a device first.
  • Call flow for a callback to an agent
    • Do not need to validate the settings in the inbound call as the call is triggered by the agent themself.
    • Check outgoing call config, including 
      • Compliance: DNC, company blacklist/whitelist, personal whitelist
      • Country whitelist, PIN code
      • Call recording enabled/disabled
    • Agent can provide the reason if the call fails.  
  • Show the link between the call TXN and the chat TXN.  
  • Applied to all types of transactions.

Callback Queuing

System will determine whether the incoming calls are normal direct calls or the Callbacks, to allow the Callback to be Queuing by timestamp and to display the Extension Label and Key on the Unified History.

  • System will play a Message for the agent to Identify the Callback: “This is the callback call. Please wait while we are connecting to the caller."
  • Allow the Callback to be Queuing by timestamp.
  • Two callback requests are allowed in a queue at a time (Based on the Phone-System-Extension, maximum concurrent calls = 2) 
  • The 3rd call onward will go to Inbound Missed Call Unanswered flow instead of playing Callback message.  
  • If a specific Caller requested a Callback multiple times, system will keep the first 1 only.
  • Extension Label and Key on Unified History is displayed.

How to make a Callback

  • Go to Home
  • Select Inbox
  • Select a transaction
  • Click on Call button.

  • Click on Add phone number to create the customer contact

  • When a user clicks on the activity of a specific call, they can view more detailed information about that particular interaction.
