Call description
The Call Description entry enables you to enter a meaningful name for a call to
distinguish it from other calls for the same contact. By default, the Call Description
entry is filled with the call type. When you go to Contacts during the call process to
select a contact to call, you have to select the call that you want to make. The names
that appear in this selection list are the call descriptions. Each call description for a
contact must be unique.
For example, a contact may be called via two addresses using the same call type. In
this instance, the call description defaults to the same call type: Selective and
Selective 1. You can make these descriptions more meaningful by including the
address in the call description, for example, Selective 1234 and Selective 2233.
