Call Log view

Use this view to see a record of your calls. Each call appears as a line in the display. The Call Log may or may not log internal calls, depending on how your TeleVantage system administrator set up the system.

The following information is displayed for each call. You can sort by the information in any column by clicking the column header.

Many of these columns are hidden by default. Click Columns to show them, or click the From column to see many of them in the Call Details window.
