Find out how Tenfold logs Salesforce calls

Calls which are logged

Tenfold logs all calls automatically in Salesforce when:

  • a call matches a single record in Salesforce

  • a call matches multiple records and the user selects a record using the Floating UI

  • a call matches no records but the user finds or creates one using the Floating UI

Calls which are not logged

Even if a call is a multi-match or a no-match case and the user does not select a record to associate, the call will be shown in the Tenfold Analytics:

  • internal calls (unless configured to be) will not be logged anywhere

  • for transfer calls (for most phone systems) log only the last leg

  • ringgroup and queue calls (for most phone systems) which are answered by someone else are logged only to that person

  • missed calls are always logged in tenfold analytics but not pushed to Salesforce
