The “Projects” tool belongs to the advanced type of security, a perfect fit for outsourcing companies, where contact center projects will be independent from each other and hidden from prying or irrelevant eyes. This tool allows limiting a certain user (users), hiding from them queues, auto dialers and other sections they shouldn’t see.

Enable “Enhanced Security”
To set up contact center projects, switch from the simplified version of security to enhanced. For this, go to the “Company” menu, select Section “Settings” and change the security type to “Enhanced”. This operation is reversible, as a result of it your first “Default” project will be created automatically.
Creating a new project
- To create a project for the call center, go to the “Roles and Projects” menu, the “Projects” section;
- After giving the project a name and description, it should be saved by clicking “Create”.
Project setup for the task
In the created project, it is necessary to add users or groups – that is, those who should have access to the project. As well as choosing queues, schedule, SIP provider, call script, auto dialers, lists, notification templates, dialogue scripts, and contact fields. That is, assemble our project and everything related to it.
