  • Asterisk integration - Removing calling cards when call unanswered

    We have installed and configured the Asterisk VOIP integration extension, but cannot find a way to improve the behaviour.

    4-6 staff are answering calls, with a reasonable number of incoming calls. We utilise a 'ring all' strategy for incoming calls, so all handsets ring for all calls for 10 seconds, then a new offer is made to all handsets.

    This causes a calling card / incoming call notification to appear on every staff members screen when the call is being offered, and moreso, if the call is not answered, another card appears on the subsequent call offers.

    This becomes significant quickly as the calling cards pile up on the screen, making it difficult to navigate when returning to the CRM window (browser window).

    My preferred behaviour would be that a calling card is displayed during an offer, but if not answered by that agent (extension) then the calling card should disappear.

    This means the call information remains available for the agent who answers the call, but automatically cleaned up from all other screens.

    Hi Steve,

    We have tested the Queue with the 'ring all' strategy on Asterisk 13.19.1. It works fine on our side:
    - For queue line: the popup is displayed only for the user after the call is answered.
    - For person-to-person call: the popup is displayed before the call is answered.

    First of all, please try to define your Queue numbers on the integration. For this, please login as Administrator to your EspoCRM instance and go to VoIP Settings > select your connector > add your queue numbers to "Active Queue Numbers" fields.
    After that wait for 1 minute and make a call.

    If the above instruction will not fix the problem, then we need your debug information.
    To find out the problem, could you make a test call in debug mode. More information how to debug, https://docs.espocrm.com/extensions/...#how-to-report.

    Waiting for your information.

      Hello,

      Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately we have been in lockdown (Covid) here so it has been difficult to resume this testing. I am about to PM you the log file.

      Steve
