Details

The BT Cloud Phone User groups feature enables a company to organise the account according to the organisation's hierarchy. The Account's Super Admin (alternatively a User Admin or a User with Administrative permission) creates a User group and assigns a Group manager. A User group manager automatically inherits certain permissions that work in combination with his current role as a User, and has access to Users, Reports, and Call Log menus.

NOTE: The images shown below are taken from the account of a Group manager who has a User Admin access.
 

Users menu

Group managers can access and modify the group members' settings by selecting a User from the User list. 


Reports menu

Group managers can access the group members' historical phone usage by clicking Reports. Different types of Reports can be accessed, generated, saved, or exported.

For more information about Reports, check BT Cloud Phone Reports Frequently Asked Questions.

 

Call log menu

Group managers can access the Call log menu to view the complete record of incoming and outgoing calls and faxes made by the User group's members. Group managers can also save report views and set Call log reports to be sent on a specified schedule.

For more information about Call Logs, check Call Logs in the BT Cloud Phone Portal.
