Telephone Checklist
In today’s fast-paced business environment, seamless communication isn’t just a convenience - it’s a necessity. However, just like any tool, the Telephone module works best when certain requirements are met. To help you get the most out of it, we’ve created this checklist. By ensuring you have the right equipment, setup, and connection, you’ll experience clear audio, fewer interruptions, and a more efficient calling experience.

- Give Admins Access to Incoming Calls
- In P3, administrators fall into two categories with respect to Telephone Integration:
- Customer-Facing Admins
- These administrators are responsible for receiving and handling incoming customer calls.
- Non-Customer-Facing Admins
- These administrators are not expected to interact directly with customers but may require access to internal (interoffice) calls.
- Customer-Facing Admins
- For Customer-Facing Admins, incoming call access must be enabled. Follow the steps below to configure this setting:
Navigate to Settings.
Select Users > Admin Users.
Open the 3-dot menu next to the relevant admin and choose Edit.
In the Telephone Integration section, locate "View Incoming Calls?"
Set this option to Yes, then click Save.
- In P3, administrators fall into two categories with respect to Telephone Integration:
- Call Dashboard Summary
Keep the Call Dashboard Summary open at all times while using the Telephone module to ensure you don’t miss incoming calls and can easily track ongoing activity even when user is not customer-facing.
Notes:
- By following this checklist, you’ll be ready to make the most of the Telephone module and ensure your communication runs without a hitch. A few minutes of preparation will go a long way in keeping conversations professional, efficient, and reliable.
- Users who are not customer-facing or have "View Upcoming Call?" set to No will not receive customer calls but will still receive or make Interoffice calls with their peers.
- Also regardless of the "View Upcoming Call?" settings, all admins will have access to Outbound Calling.
