Background Information

The Attendant Console for Webex Calling is an application designed to help receptionists or operators manage incoming calls efficiently. This console provides a user-friendly interface that allows the attendant to handle multiple calls simultaneously, easily transfer calls to the appropriate party, monitor the status of lines within the organization, and access directories for quick call routing.

Common Attendant Console Issues

Ensure the Organization and the User have the Attendant Console Licenses

The user must have Webex Calling Professional license and Attendant Console license.

Step 1. Under MANAGEMENT > Users click the User.

Edit User Calling Licenses

Step 5. Click the checkbox for the needed Licenses.

Step 6. Click Save.

Attendant Console License not Available for the User

If the Attendant Console is not available for the user, this could be because the organization does not have any Attendant Console Licenses available.

Step 1. Under MANAGEMENT > Account > Subscriptions > License Summary > Calling.

Step 2. Ensure Attendant Console Assigned licenses have not reached the Account's limit.

Step 3. If the Attendant Console Assigned licenses do not show in the Summary or more Licenses are needed, refer to Provisioning the Attendant Console license.

After Provisioning with Attendant Console Licenses, Receptionist Still Appears in Control Hub

Trial organizations that were originally provisioned with Receptionist Client feature and provided with Attendant Console trial licenses afterwards, continue to see the Receptionist Client in SERVICES > Calling > Features > Receptionist Client.

These organizations can use the Attendant Console client in the Webex App. Once the Attendant Console license has been purchased, the Receptionist Client and the user's calling setting under User call experience is expected to change to the Attendant Console option.
