Getting Your Agents Started - Manager's Guide

Learn how to set up agent users, manage their login process, reset passwords, and introduce them to their workflow and workspace.

Welcome to the guide on how to get your agents started with the CommPeak Cloud PBX.

When the system is set up, all you need to do is create your agent users, help them log in, and train them. After they start receiving their first calls, you can watch their operation and monitor their progress.

Here, you can learn how to create users, reset their passwords, and perform the steps needed for your agent to log in. Then, we will walk you through the pages of the agent workspace.

This guide contains links to the accompanying articles and video guides from our knowledge base.

Creating Agent User

Please follow this link for an article about creating a new user or refer to this one for instructions on how to manage existing users. You can edit users later if there is a need to modify their permissions or other settings.

Login Credentials

The Cloud PBX login link is the same for all your users, whether they are administrators, managers, or agents. So you can send them the same link as you use.

NOTE

It is possible to whitelist IP addresses and/or countries for accessing your Cloud PBX domain. Please take a look at the Access Control Lists article for more information.

Send the agent the username you entered and the temporary password the system generated when creating a new user.

Upon the first login, the system will prompt the agent to generate a permanent password.

Resetting Passwords

Administrators can reset passwords from the Users Management page. Apply the search filters to find the needed user quickly.

The next step is to click Reset Password in the Actions column.

After you confirm this action, a new temporary password will appear in the top left corner for a few seconds.

Copy the password and send it to the agent. The system will prompt the agent to reset it on the next login.

You can reset the password for an agent at any time if you wish to terminate their access.

Agent Workflow

Agents have fewer permissions than administrators or managers. They can receive calls or make calls in the manual mode.

You can find the introduction of the agent's interface in the Getting Started Guide for Agents.
