How do I understand and print my call status
report?
Once PhoneTree® has completed its call job, you will want to check the Call Status.
Click Pause in the Call Center if a job is in progress, and wait for the PhoneTree® Desktop to appear. Click on the PhoneTree® icon. The List Editor screen will come
up for your PhoneTree® and the most recent call list will appear, with updated
status information in the Call Status column. You can quickly determine exactly
how PhoneTree® handled each call from this information in the Call Status column.
Following is a list of common call statuses:
