It is possible to edit the created task or call logged via x-bees in Salesforce Partner Community.  

Inbound and outbound calls via PBX are automatically logged for users that have a match in Salesforce Partner Community (leads, contacts, accounts) are displayed as completed tasks. The data of a logged call includes: participants, call type and duration, date and time the call was received/made, information about transfers.

Notes:

  • The timeout between the end of the call and the call being logged in Salesforce Partner Community is 10 minutes.

  • The below calls are not logged:

    • Received and missed PBX calls in case of an unknown number.

    • Calls that were cancelled or lasted less than 5 seconds.

    • Calls between users of the same PBX/ WMS Network.

  • If there are multiple matches, the match is chosen in the following priority:


    1. Contact / Account / Lead that was last dialled or selected via the Wrong match button on the Info frame.
      Note: It may take up to 15 minutes to sync the data across PBX users/ different devices.


    2. Then, match is prioritized by type Contact -> Account -> Lead, Contact having higher priority than Lead


    3. If there are several matches of the same type, the last modified item is matched by default. 

Note: The logging process follows the below rules:

  • The task is displayed as created by user, who actually created the task, or had a call with Salesforce Lead or Contact. 

  • When the user who manually logged the activity is not in Salesforce Partner Community, in the Task Information section a comment is added informing whom the task was created by.

  • Internal activities, which involve only x-bees users are not logged.
