Stop Recording on Voice Call Transfer

Stop Recording on Voice Call Transfer

Overview

The Stop Recording on Voice Call Transfer feature allows administrators to control whether a call recording should be terminated when a call is transferred between agents.

This option can be configured in Settings → General → Global tab --> Stop Recording on Voice Call Transfer.

Behavior based on Call Direction

Outbound Calls

  • When Stop Recording on Transfer is enabled, the call recording will stop upon transfer.

  • If an outbound route is configured with Settings → General → Recording (by selecting a format), recording resumes after transfer.

Inbound Calls

  • The behavior depends on the type of transfer:

    • blind (agent1 transfers the call to agent2 immediately): the recording will always be stopped

    • attended (agent1 calls before agent2 and then he transfers the call): it depends on whether the transfer is internal or external.

OFF
ATTENDED to External
1 REC (unique audio that contains both Agent1&Client1 and with Agent2&Client1)

 

Inbound Calls
Agent settings: Record Calls to User Extension set to Inactive (for both agents), so recording is not automatic on the agent channel
Client1 initiates a call to Agent1 via an internal route (not through a Queue)
Agent1 manually starts recording, then transfers the call to Agent2.

If you switch ON Stop Recording on voice call transfer:

  • With Transfer Type BLIND to Internal/External, output will be with a call recording only between Agent1&Client1

  • With Transfer Type ATTENDED to External, output will be with a call recording only between Agent1&Client1

  • With Transfer Type ATTENDED to Internal, output will be with a unique call recording that contains both Agent1&Client1 and with Agent2&Client1

If you switch OFF Stop Recording on voice call transfer there will always be an output with a unique call recording that contains both Agent1&Client1 and with Agent2&Client1
