It is possible to disable unwanted record types from search in the Call Center Settings (see setting Types To Include In Directory Lookup)

Call Log Entries

If the setting Call Log Type is set to Call Activity Record, Connects for Salesforce - CCE/CCX Edition writes a call log entry into the Task table of Salesforce for established calls.

The call log entries can be found in the Call Center Reports of Salesforce (e.g. the My Calls Today report).

The fields are populated in this initial entry as follows:

Field	Field Label (en)	Value
OwnerId	Assigned To	The Salesforce ID of the logged in user
Subject	Subject	Call
CallType	Call Type	Inbound or Outbound
Status	Status	Completed
CallObject	Call Object Identifier	A unique ID for this call
Description	Comments	If "Show Call Log Comment Field" is enabled, the agent can add a short comment on the Connects Gadget.
cnxCTIInfoc	CTI Info	Additional call information: ANI + DNIS for inbound calls and Dialed Number for Outbound calls
ActivityDate	Due Date	Current date, the date when the activity was created
WhoId	Name	The result of the ANI lookup for inbound calls (or DialedNumber lookup for outbound calls), if one single entity of the following types was found: Contact or Lead
WhatId	Related To	The result of the ANI lookup for inbound calls (or DialedNumber lookup for outbound calls), if one single entity of the following types was found: Account, Asset, Campaign, Case, Contract, Opportunity, Product, Solution, Custom objects with the setting Allow Activities enabled.

After this initial entry is saved, it is possible to add customized data to the record.

caution

Salesforce is enforcing Field-Level Security in Lightning Experience, if an agent has no right to view and edit a field (e.g. cnxCTIInfoc), the field remains empty.

info

If changing the existing call log entry through customization, be aware that some of the fields may be overwritten again later. More information about the fields being overwritten can be found in the following tables.

If the agent clicks the button to assign the call log entry to the currently displayed entity, the following fields are updated with the displayed entity.

Field	Field Label (en)	Value
WhoId	Name	The WhoId is updated, if the currently displayed entity is a Contact or a Lead.
WhatId	Related To	The WhatId is updated, if the currently displayed entity is one of the following: Account, Asset, Campaign, Case, Contract, Opportunity, Product, Solution, Custom objects with the setting "Allow Activities" enabled.

At the end of the call the following information is updated in the existing record:

Field	Field Label (en)	Value
CallDisposition	Call Result	The selected Wrap-Up reason or an empty string, if no reason was selected
CallDurationInSeconds	Call Duration	The call duration in seconds

info

If the current date changed during the call, the browser was closed before the call ended, or the browser page was reloaded when the call ended, this update cannot be performed and the CallDisposition may result as empty, and the CallDuration may be 0.

Required Settings for SSO Deployment with Mozilla Firefox

Because of the Cisco SSO architecture, SSO won’t work with the JSON-viewer from Mozilla Firefox. All users who use Mozilla Firefox with SSO, need to change the following configuration in their browser.

1. Enter the following into the navigation bar of your Firefox browser: about:config
2. Copy and paste devtools.jsonview.enabled into the search row that appears.
3. Select devtools.jsonview.enabled. The value of this configuration will be displayed in the center of the bar. If this value is true, click on the toggle button on the right hand side to change the value to false.
