Patch 7.0.5

TLD & TLDialer Automated & Self-Serve Whitelist

This is a big one, we have been looking to creating a solution to this problem for a while, and it is finally done! Enjoy the fruits of my sleepless nights!

The “Access” panel has been re-written. We changed the External IP Whitelist Users into a Multi-checkbox so it is easier to select agents as well. It has been Renamed to “IP Unrestricted Users“. It’s counterpart: External Admin Level Limit has been renamed to “IP Unrestricted User Level“. And now onto the Nitty Gritty.

  • IP Whitelist: The IP Whitelist is now a full on table. TLDialer itself, also has a Whitelist. These two Whitelists work in conjunction with one another, and can also be used Separately. Most of what we have done is pretty much automated.
    • The Whitelists are split into Allowed and Revoked, all living on the same panel.
      • The tables can be paginated through as well as searched. Each tab has it’s own search and pagination but all 4 tabs run queries at once when you hit go!
        • You can search by IP Address. Allower Name, Revoker Name, and Description. It will try to match best possible using %LIKE%
    • When adding an IP, you MUST Put something in the Description. You CANNOT Update the description after the IP has been added. We are doing this for tracking and auditing purposes and to keep people honest.
    • Agent IP Restrictions Applies to Agents under the IP Restricted User Level and will allow them to log in.
    • Admin IP Restrictions Apply to Everyone on an Account, EXCEPT for the IP Unrestricted Users. Having at minimum 1 Admin IP Restriction will IP Restrict your whole account for Admins. Admins will be subject to the Agent IP Whitelists but also have the additional benefit of qualifying for the Admin IP as well.
    • IP Unrestricted Users bypass all IP Checks regardless of any IP Restrictions.
    • Adding an IP to the Allowed IP’s Table will also automatically add the IP to the TLDialer Whitelist table by default. IF you do not want that IP Authenticated on TLDialer, you can switch to that tab and Revoke it by pressing the red X.
    • We have Automatically imported all current IP Addresses that were listed in the old IP Whitelist textbox.
    • When you revoke an IP it will end up in the Revoke List which can be searched and keeps a history of what has happened with IP Authentication. This is why we do not allow modifying the descriptions as it would interrupt the history flow for auditing.
  • TLDialer Whitelist: The TLDialer whitelist was a little trickier as each individual Dialer Server is locked out from the world except for the IP’s authenticated.
    • Whitelist Interval – 1 Minute: Adding and Revoking in this list takes about a Minute. When adding, the Revoke button will be a black button with an hour glass until the server authenticates it, it will also do the same when revoking until it finally clears it out as revoked.
    • There are Two Types of IP Whitelists for TLDialer
      • Permanent: Will last until manually revoked
      • Temporary: Will last for a Full day and are cleared at 2 AM Account time. This lets you give someone temporary access.
    • Automatic Whitelisting: If a User is Unrestricted in TLDCRM, we will AUTOMATICALLY add the Users IP Address to the TLDialer Whitelist with a 1 day pass.
      • 1 Day IP Whitelists get cleared every day at 2 AM account time.
      • The server will Re-add the IP if logged into the unrecognized IP the next day on login or access to the CRM if still available.
      • The moment an IP gets Auto-Whitelisted a Popup will notify the User that their IP has been added and should wait at least a Minute before using TLDialer to make sure it has been completed.
    • When you revoke an IP it will end up in the Revoke List which can be searched and keeps a history of what has happened with IP Authentication. This is why we do not allow modifying the descriptions as it would interrupt the history flow for auditing.
    • You can add an IP into the Whitelist that is NOT in the TLDCRM Whitelist manually if you have people connecting to use JUST the Dialer without TLDialer, for fronter operations or specific kinds of management. This should be rarely if ever used.

TLDialer

  • Added a Workaround for not being able to Pause from Dispo Mode. We queue up a Pause if you tried to pause before hand and initiate it right after. There may be an off chance you might get a call within the less than a second that it tries to do this.
  • We now have a reset button that will boot you out of TLDialer, even if you left yourself logged in at home. You know who you are…This also runs on Logout.
  • Pushed a fix to allow Bluetooth Audio Devices and iOS in general to work with the Webphone again. They changed things up!
  • Dead Calls should now show up properly in Live Agents Reports.
  • Added “Gradient Mode” which can be turned on per request for Live Agents Report. Most accounts have this on by default now.
  • Minute Resets will no longer run on Inactive Lists or Inactive Vendors
  • Fixed an issue where a person without a valid phone could try to monitor or barge causing all sorts of craziness.
  • We now check the Client Filter Phone Group when manually adding leads to the hopper to avoid calling clients accidentally when mass inserting.
    • There is a checkbox to override this behavior if you want to add current clients.
  • Users can now see their Outbound CID in the Profile Dropdown. Clicking will copy to Clipboard.

Documents

  • You can now copy pictures and such from the clipboard into a Document directly on the contact for for lead and policy documents by highlighting the grey box in front of browser and pressing ctrl+v.
  • Documents now populate a mime_type field for each document so we know exactly what it is.  This may or may not be useful for you but it is useful for us.
  • Documents now have a “Type” that can be set while uploading. This should make identifying a document easier. You can create your own custom types.
    • Document Types can now be required on the lead or on the Policy based off system and custom types.
    • You can now edit a documents type and description from the contact or from the documents section.
    • Public Documents. You can now set documents to be publicly accessible (without login) and for these we will NOT be storing a log. This is going to be useful for hosting content that you need to link elsewhere where there may be high traffic, or for emailers and such.

Lead Statuses

  • Added an Option for both the System as a Whole, or per Status, to require at least one policy on the lead before converting the lead. It will stop disposition from happening accidentally.

      • Copy Ranks and Copy Grades from another User
      • Set and Copy Functions will only change the ingroups that are currently filtered so you can find the ingroups you want then just set those. So fast!

Uploader

  • We now automatically append some data if it’s not provided in case you do a “Whoopsie” and need us to modify a certain subset of uploaded leads.
    • We now automatically add import_id to the lead if it does not exist. It will set it to the current Upload ID for easy searching.
    • We now automatically add import_source to the lead if it does not exist. We use the actual file name that was uploaded (not the processed file name) for easy searching.
  • You can now use Excel UTF-8 CSV’s. We remove the BOM Byte for you when we detect UTF-8. Yay! That was really annoying wasn’t it?
  • Added a Link to Leads via Upload ID if the file is a Process file, otherwise it will not be clickable.
  • Removed “Upload ID”, “Reference ID” and “Download” tabs to save space on the table.
    • Replaced with “Action”, “ID” and XID”. Hover over the Columns to see their true name.
  • Added some Color to Upload History Table so you can more easily identify error files or files currently in process.
  • Field Mapping Changes
    • You can now copy the values you are mapping to internal relational fields to the clipboard. There is a button next to each unique value.
    • There is also a copy all button that will give you a list of these values to paste elsewhere. If you hold Ctrl + Click this copy all button it will only copy the unmapped values.
    • Made it so that when mapping products it shows ALL products in your account including the hidden ones, since many uploads of policies are historical products from other system

Campaigns (Relays & Mailer)

  • “Age” campaign types can now be sent out by hour not just day, this gives you a little more fine tuned control to allow you to send an email 2 or 3 hours after a lead is received for instance.

Filters

Callbacks

Callbacks got some more love in this patch!

  • Callback section had buttons standardized.
