Read a GoHighLevel call report and send a recap email
How the call reports from GoHighLevel appear on a customer record, how to check what the call said before you rely on it, how to confirm the details heard on a call, and how to send the recap email to the customer.
Screens may differ slightly from what you see.
What it is for
When a customer calls the showroom or is called through GoHighLevel, the call can be transcribed and summarised. IBIOS keeps that as a call report on the customer record, so the next person knows what was said without listening to the call again. From the same report, IBIOS can draft a recap email for you to send to the customer, and list the details heard on the call that you can confirm into the customer record.
Nothing is sent to a customer, and nothing is written into the record, until a person presses the button.
Who can use it
- Anyone who can see the customer: read the call reports on that customer. You see only the reports for customers in your brand and within your view rights.
- Rebuild a report (the Rebuild button): needs the rebuild permission, Rebuild Report. Each customer can be rebuilt once in a 10-minute window, and each person can rebuild up to 12 times an hour.
- Confirm the details heard on a call: needs call_reports.confirm_proposals.
- Send a recap email: needs call_reports.send_recap.
- Reset a recap stuck in sending: Director and Owner only.
- Change the survey fields and templates for call reports: call_reports.configure.
Your manager sets these on Settings, then Permissions. If you cannot see a button, you do not have that permission.
How to use it
Find the call reports
- Open the customer from Customers.
- Find the Call reports section. Each report shows its date and a summary.
- Open a report to see its detail. It shows What was said and When it happened, with the source for each point.
- If a figure has no verified quote behind it, the figure is marked. Do not rely on a marked figure until you have checked it with the customer.
- If the section says a report was updated with later activity, the report has been changed since you first saw it. Read it again before you act.
Rebuild a report
If a report looks out of date, click Rebuild. IBIOS reads the call again and produces a new report. Wait for it to finish; the section refreshes when it has.
Confirm the details heard on a call
On the customer record, Details heard on calls lists the record fields the call mentioned. Each one shows the old value and the new value.
- Read the proposed value and the source it rests on. The source is shown to staff only, and is never sent to the customer.
- Click Confirm to write the new value into the customer record. You will be asked to confirm a replacement if the field already has a value.
- Click Dismiss if the call got it wrong or the detail does not matter.
Confirming is a change to the customer record, so it is logged.
Draft and send a recap email
The recap is a draft email to the customer, built from the report.
- On the customer record, find Recap email to the customer. If a draft is already there, you will see it.
- Read the Subject and the Body. Each line rests on facts from the call. The Each line rests on list shows where each fact came from.
- Edit the text if you need to. Click Save draft to keep your changes.
- Click Send when you are happy. Nothing is sent until you press Send.
- If a draft is stuck in sending, a Director or Owner can reset it to failed, then you can send it again.
The draft and the send happen only when a person acts. IBIOS does not send recaps by itself.
Tips
- Read the report before you ring the customer back. It takes less time than listening to the call.
- Check the When line on each point. A detail from an old call may be out of date.
- Confirm the details you are sure about, and dismiss the rest. A long list left open makes the next person less sure of the record.
- Keep recap emails short. Use the subject to say what the email is about, for example "Your bathroom survey on Tuesday".
Things to know
- A report comes from the call transcript and its summary. It can miss a point or misread a word. The marked figures and the sources are there so you can check them.
- Call reports are attached to the customer record. A customer outside your brand does not show them to you, and the page says nothing about whether they exist.
- The Rebuild limits exist so one customer or one person cannot run up a large AI bill. If you hit the limit, wait for the window to pass.
