📋 What’s about

XCALLY Motion Users can be either Administrators or Supervisors: they belong to the same Staff category (Users) but they have a different role (Admin role versus User role).

Users with admin roleroles can for instance:

  • Create, modify or delete User Profiles

  • Create, modify or delete users, agents and telephones

  • Create and update Cally Square projects

  • Create and update Custom Dashboards and enable other users to use them

  • Create and update lists in the Contact Manager

  • Create and update campaigns in Motion Dialer

  • Perform software update

  • Have access to all features in XCALLY Motion

  • and many others. 

Users with user roleroles will be identified as belonging to a User Profile, which for instance may allow them to:

  • View, create, modify or delete agents and telephones (but they cannot manage other users)

  • View, create, modify or delete resources (like Queues, Accounts, Reports, and so on)

  • View, create and update Custom Dashboards

  • View, create and update XCALLY Square projects

  • View, create and update lists in the Contact Manager

  • View, create and update campaigns in Motion Dialer

  • and many others.

The Users having this role (Supervisors) will, for instance, monitor a group of Customer Center Agents' calls, chats, and emails (or any other communication the Agent is participating in with Customers), ensuring the quality of them, and analyze analysing the channels quantitative usage reports in order to track the volume of interactions per unit of time (day, week, month, etc). They can either coach their Agents in order to prevent customer complains complaints and manage escalation rise, reaching service levels and objectives set forth by management.

See the User Profile Documentation for further information. 

Info

The Users (Users with User Role) and the Administrators (User Users with Admin Role) share the same U.I., although their abilities may differ.

Warning

Please note that information visibility in some sections (e.g. Dashboard, Agents, Queues, Realtime and Reports) is according to the queues the user is allowed to

For example, if the administrator has enabled the user permissions to Agents, Voice Queues and Voice realtime modules, in these sections, the user will only see:

  • In Agents sections: the agents belonging to the assigned queue.

  • In the Voice Queue section: the assigned queue.

  • In the Voice Realtime section: information about agents, queues and queue calls in the assigned queue.
