You must be signed into the WebApp as an Administrator to add a new location.
To integrate a location with your management software, please reach out to CallPotential Support via chat, email support@callpotential.com or contact your Customer Success Manager.
Access
(A) New Location - From the Locations list, click to create a new one.
Complete Initial Settings - Note: Only fields identified with "*" are required in order to add the location. For full system functionality, other fields will need to be populated before the location is activated. Please reference Details Settings, Leads Settings, Collections Settings, Employees Settings, Evaluations Settings, Tracking Numbers Settings, Communications Settings to learn how to edit additional location settings.
General
(B) Location Name - Enter the Location's name that will be used for internal reporting purposes.
(C) Friendly Name - Enter the Location name that will be used in text & email communication.
(D) Primary Number - This is the phone number CallPotential will use to connect calls to the location. It's possible to add more than one number in this field. To do so, separate them with a comma. This will allow inbound calls to ring all the phone numbers simultaneously. However, the first number listed will be used by the system for all outbound calls and applicable reports. Note: If using Collection Manager only, this will be the location's mainline. If using Lead Manager, CallPotential will track your mainline and the primary phone field will be a unique, non-advertised line that connects to the location.
(E) This is a SIP address - When this box is checked, it gives the option to add a username, password or extension if needed to connect to the phone.
(F) Outbound Number - Enter the number used for outbound calls if it is different from the primary number.
(G) This is a SIP address - When this box is checked, it gives the option to add a username, password or extension if needed to connect to the phone.
