In Orderry, you’ve long been able to automatically create tasks and inquiries from missed or incoming calls. Previously, you could only define assignees who would receive them. But now, since you can assign a personal manager to each contact, it makes sense to take this into account.

After enabling automatic creation of tasks and inquiries in Settings > Telephony, if a contact who made an incoming or missed call has a manager assigned, the task or inquiry created from this call will automatically be assigned to that manager.

Additionally, a new option has been added, allowing you to choose who such tasks and inquiries should be assigned to — all managers or selected employees.

This setting applies to calls from contacts who don’t have a manager. It also considers whether a manager has access to your telephony’s extension number:

  • Calls are first assigned to managers who have access to the internal number.

  • If none of the managers have access, the task or inquiry created from such a call will be assigned to one of the selected employees.

This way, you can organize the distribution of tasks and inquiries among your company’s employees more precisely and flexibly.
