Desktop Call Manager – DCM

Desktop Call Manager or DCM is Ipitomy’s Call Management application for Windows Operating Systems. It allows the user to Control their calls and the calls of others within the system that they have permissions to control using the PC and the interface. It offers a robust platform for call management.

 

Desktop Call Manager (DCM) R2 Display

The DCM R2 display is comprised of three functional areas, the User Panel, the Manager/Monitored User Panel and the Feature Panel


DCM1 Full Screen.gif


NOTE that with DCM R2 there is no distinction between the display window for a user and for an operator/supervisor.  In DCM R2 functionality (such as LISTEN, WHISPER and RECORD) is controlled under calling permissions in the extension configuration in the IPitomy IP PBX database.

User Panel

 

The User Panel provides the ability to perform certain call control actions for a user’s own extension.

 

Call Monitoring

In the large white box you will see any calls that are ringing your extension, actively connected to your extension, on hold with your extension, or in your extension’s voicemail box. 

 

DCM2 User Panel.gif


Call
Displays what type of call you are viewing - Incoming, Outoging, or Internal
Time
Displays the duration of the call
Connected To
Shows what trunk/channel the call is using
CID
Displays the Caller ID information for the call
Status
Shows the status of the call - Connected, Hold, NoLink


Call Control

The buttons across the top of the User Display allow you to control the operation of your telephone.

Dial

To place a call, enter an extension number or telephone number in the text field next to My Calls.  Click DIAL. Your extension will ring.  When you answer, you will be connected to the call. 

Shortcut:  You can take advantage of the Extension Panel right click feature. The Extension Panel allows you to right click on the extension you wish to call and click dial.  Each extension that is monitored will appear as a colored box in the Extensions panel.  The right click menu provides several other options including transfer, transfer to voice mail and page.

Transfer

To transfer a call, enter an extension number or telephone number in the text field next to My Calls.  On your DCM personal call window, highlight the active call you want to transfer, and then click TRANSFER to send the call to the extension or telephone number input in the text field. 

  • Shortcut:  You can take advantage of the Extension Panel right click feature. The Extension Panel allows you to right click on the extension you wish to transfer a call to and click transfer; the caller will be transferred to the extension.  Each extension that is monitored will appear as a colored box in the Extensions panel.  The right click menu provides several other options including dial, transfer to voice mail and page.


  • Park On your DCM personal call window, highlight the active call and click PARK.  The call will automatically be placed in the next available Park orbit (701-720).  The IPitomy system will tell you which park orbit the call is parked on.  The call will be available on one of the park pickup keys on all telephones.


  • Listen to Voicemail This feature allows you to listen to a caller while s/he is leaving you a message in voicemail.  On your DCM personal call window, highlight the active call that is in your VM.  Then click LISTEN TO VM.   The speaker on your phone will automatically activate, and you will be able to hear the caller leaving the voicemail message (hands free via the phone’s speaker).


  • Pickup Voicemail On your DCM personal call window, highlight the active call that is in your VM.  Click PICKUP VM to pull the caller out of your voicemail box and into an active call with you.  (Make sure you hang up the previous call using “Listen to Voice Mail)


  • Hang-up On your DCM personal call window highlight the active call and click HANGUP to terminate the call.


  • Record On your DCM personal call window highlight the active call and click RECORD to start recording the call.  The RECORD button automatically changes to STOP RECORD.  To terminate the recording of this call, just click on STOP RECORD.

 

Manager Panel / Monitored User Panel

</div>  

The Manager Panel includes the ability to monitor the status of selected extensions and perform call control functions.  It also includes whisper features that supervisors will find useful.  When an extension is selected from the extension panel, the calls for that extension are displayed on the Manager Panel. 

The manager can select a call from the list then choose to use the enabled functions available on the Manager Buttons; Barge/Pickup, Listen, Whisper and Record.  Each button can be enabled or disabled based upon each individual user requirements.
