Call Recorder filters and searches
The Call Recorder contains a search feature and configurable filters to assist in searching and displaying only the information pertinent to your current needs. This article explains how to use these two features.
Filters
Call Recorder Filters can be applied to the screen from within the Recordings tab or the Reports tab. The Filter options are:
- By Number
- By Employee
- By Redirection
- By Date/Time
- By Duration
- By Category
- Other
Applying a Filter
Select the Filter you wish to apply, then select the Filter option; Number, Employee, Redirection, Date/Time, Duration, Category, or Other, as required. Filters may be applied from within the Recordings tab or from the Reports tab. The following example is taken from the Recordings tab.

Searches
The Search box is located at the top right hand side of the Call Recorder window. The Search feature allows you to search any part of the call record on the Recorded Calls screen in order to find a specific call record. For example: if there are 10 pages of recorded call files on the Recorded Calls screen and you need to find a specific call record that you know has a comment associated with it that has the word "help desk" in it, you can search for that word to find that call record. You can also use a wild card (%) to replace part of the word or number for which you are searching.
Using the Search feature
- Enter the word or number that you wish to search for in the Search box.
- Click View search results.
The application returns all records containing your search criteria.
