Call Scheduler

The Call Scheduler allows you to perform bulk rescheduling of new leads and callbacks using drag and drop.

Start by selecting one or more allocations from the left hand list. Click an allocation to select it, click it again to de-select it.

As you select an allocation any new leads or callbacks are displayed in the calendar in one hour blocks as a 'Call Block'. Each Call Block is colour coded to indicate the type of calls.

	Green Call Blocks show leads which haven't been called.
	Yellow Call Blocks shows leads which are due to be called back as a result of a No Answer, Busy, Answering Machine etc.
	Red Call Blocks shows leads which are a Client Approved Callback.

Rescheduling Call Blocks

You can quickly and easly reschedule calls by clicking a Call Block and draging it to another time period in the Calendar.

When you drop the Call Block the 'Reschedule Calls' dialog will be displayed (see below), which will allow you to refine the set of leads that you actually want moved or cancel the action if you change your mind.

Moving leads between 10 minute intervals

Each Call Block displays the time and quantity of leads available in that one hour block.

Whilst leads will become available during the indicated hour block, they may not necessarily be available at the start of the hour. To see additional details click the Call Block and the 'Ten minute breakdown' table will be filled with the selected Call Block's details. You can now re-schedule the calls for the selected Call Block within the Hour. To reschedule events within the hour simple click the time interval you want to move, drag it to the desired location within the Ten minute breakdown panel,  then drop the interval.

Filtering leads by disposition

Whenever you drag and drop leads within either the Calendar or Ten minute breakdown you will be presented with a dialog which allows you to further control what leads are moved.

The dialog breaks down the leads within the Call Block or Interval by disposition. For each disposition it displays a count of the number of leads of that disposition type within the selected Call Block or Interval.

You can then optionally alter the count to control how many of each disposition type are moved to the new time slot. If you have one disposition type that you don't want moved then set its count to 0. If you want to just move some of the leads then reduce the count to the desired number that you want to move.

When you are happy with the counts click OK to reschedule the calls or Cancel to cancel the move. For large numbers of leads it may take several minutes for the leads to be moved.
