The Salesforce activity history can automatically be created for Salesforce records. If there are no records that match the call histories, a Salesforce activity history with the Related to field blank will be created.
For activity histories without a related Salesforce record, the following Salesforce users can check the histories.
- Assigned user of the Salesforce activity history.
- Salesforce users who have higher roles than the assigned user.
- Salesforce users with system administration privileges.
IMPORTANT
- To use this feature, you would need to first set up the Salesforce integration.
- Call history from automatic forwarding will not be created on Salesforce.
- The Salesforce account used for this integration must have access to see the User Objects.
