Create and Complete Dispositions and Notes

Dispositions, also known as tags, provide contact center agents with structured/categorized options for qualifying what happened on inbound and outbound calls. By tracking call outcomes, and notes, managers gain valuable insight into the success of their Team's process and customers’ needs. 


As an AVOXI Admin, you can configure dispositions at a team level and request agents to submit a disposition immediately after each call. These will be loaded into a drop-down menu in the web phone for agents to choose from, with the Option to select multiple selections. Using the “required” setting, you have the flexibility to make it mandatory for agents to complete a disposition before moving on to the next call. In addition, Agents can submit dispositions on all direct calls, both inbound and outbound and take notes. 


Use the below links to step-by-step guides to get started:

Inbound and Outbound Calls

Admins can configure dispositions on inbound and outbound calls at an org level via the Accounts and Preferences section of their AVOXI online account.   

  • To get started, log into your AVOXI User Interface.
  • Click your account avatar in the top right-hand corner.
  • Select Company Account.
  • Select the General section located on the left 
  • Then click the settings tab
  • Use the 3 dots next to the required call direction, i.e., Inbound or Outbound. 
  • There can be only one org-level inbound disposition, and one org-level outbound disposition set simultaneously. (Please note this limit does not apply to team dispositions).



  • Using the drop-down Configuration of org-level dispositions is the same as team dispositions, except that there is no 'Tree Select' option. Instead, 'Freeform' and 'Simple Select' are available. 
  • Outbound disposition example: For a generic outbound disposition, a simple selection for the result of an outbound call would be appropriate. 

  • Inbound/Outbound Disposition Example: Freeform general notes to be taken during or after a call.


  • Inbound Disposition Example: A simple selection of the type of transfer or direct inbound call received for generic direct inbound dispositions.
  • Dispositions and notes can now be completed during a call by selecting the disposition button on the webphone when on a call. 
Non-queue Disposition (Direct Inbound or Outbound Calls):  The agent is not paused, and a call can still come in.   An agent will lose a non-queue disposition if any (queue or non-queue) call comes in.

Queue Disposition: If a non-queue call comes in while completing a "Queue" disposition,  the agent will see the incoming call and won't lose the queue disposition.



Creating Team Dispositions

Use the below step-by-step guide to create mandatory dispositions specific to a team.

  • Select the "Teams" icon located on the left-hand side navigation bar.
  • Select the Team for which you wish to create call dispositions.
  • Click the Settings tab located at the top, and then select Dispositions.
  • Next, select the three dots icon on the left-hand side and click "Add Disposition."

  • Give your disposition a label; some popular examples include:
    • Case Resolved
    • Product Sold
    • Appointment Booked
    • Scheduled Demo
    • Not Interested
  • Next, select your rep type.
  • AVOXI Tip: As an admin, you can create as many dispositions as you wish. These will be loaded into a drop-down menu for agents to choose from.
  • Type - Freeform Text 

    • This allows your Agents to type in whatever they’d like when closing out the call. 
    • Decide if you want to make this required or optional.
    • Then select Add
  • Type - Simple Select

    • This allows your Agents to choose a disposition from preset options. 
    • Select + Add Option and label each of your options. 
    • You can set up as many as you’d like by selecting the +Add Option
    • Decide if you want to make this required or optional and if you want to allow for multiple selections. 
    • Then select Add.
  • Type - Tree Select

    • This allows your Agents to choose a disposition from the preset Option but also enables the ability for sub-options. 
    • Select + Add Option and label each of your options. 
    • You can set up as many as you’d like by selecting the +Add Option
    • Then select + Add Child under any of your options to add sub-options. 
    • Decide if you want to make this required or optional and if you want to allow for multiple selections. 
    • Then select Add.
  • Required

    • Using the toggle, activate the “required” control to make it mandatory for agents to complete a deposition before moving on to the next call.
  • Allow Multiple Selections

    • Using the toggle, activate the "allow multiple sections" control to allow agents to select multiple selections. 
    • Once everything is complete, select Add.
  • Preview your dispositions by selecting the three dots icon and then Preview Dispositions.

Completing Team Dispositions on the Webphone

Dispositions are labels that define the outcome of a call. Agents may be required to submit a disposition immediately after each call.  

  • If dispositions have been made a "required" field, users/ agents will see a disposition pop up on their webphones after completing the call. 
  • Complete the text box, or select from a list of options.

Help: My new Dispositions aren't appearing!

If you've set up a new Call Disposition and you are not seeing it appear on calls immediately, please have your Agents log out and log back in. This should update their webphone with the latest disposition updates you have made.
