Definition

Automatically opening the matching customer record when an incoming call is received.

How it works

The CRM opens a matching customer record on an incoming call; unknown or ambiguous numbers need a separate workflow. Integration brings together customer records, telephony events and business workflows. Correct operation depends on consistent identifiers, synchronisation rules and permissions.

Business example

When a customer calls, the CRM opens their order history before the agent answers.

What to consider

Test API failures, duplicate events, mandatory fields and recovery after temporary outages. Avoid exposing customer data unintentionally.
