Missed calls are not shown on history that came through call queue
Hi, When i miss a call which comes into my Call Queue, it is not registered in my call history? Is there a way we can fix this? If not, what are the best practices to track the missed calls. ...
Hi shravanDH
The best way I've found is to enable Conference Mode on the Call Queue and setup an iPhone with Teams where either a dummy user or an actual agent is signed into the Queue. This way missed calls are displayed as red in the iPhone's (not Teams App's) call history. There's no notification badge, meaning somebody has to check the iPhone's call history every now and then. You can however switch the view between all recent or just missed calls. You can also see calls which were answered on another device / by another agent (shown in white/black depending on dark/light mode) if you tap on the entry to see the call details. This does not work on Android. I hope this helps.
Hey everyone!
I just wanted to let people know who are experiencing the frustration that is having a call queue that doesn't record missed calls that I was able to find a workaround.
If you create an Auto Attendant and assign it a resource account with a phone number, you can have that Auto Attendant reroute the call immediately to one individual user. Then, have that individual user's forwarding rules set to route a call that is not answered by them to a "Call Group". Add all necessary users to the call group and set the group to either receive the forwarded call simultaneously or sequentially. What this ultimately does is route a mainline/call queue phone number to an single user's Teams phone number and Teams recognizes that it should always record a Missed Call if a call is directed to the user specifically.
I know it's a rather janky solution, but I was able to set this up for a branch in our company and they prefer this option compared to no Missed Call records at all.
I hope this helps for some people out there!
