A complete guide to every feature in Octavion — from your first sign-in to advanced administration.

01

Getting Started

Sign in, navigate the dashboard, and configure your workspace.

Signing In

Open app.octavion.ae in your browser and enter your email and password. If your administrator has enabled two-factor authentication, you will be prompted for a verification code after entering your credentials. Bookmark the login page for quick access.

Mission Control

After signing in you land on Mission Control — the unified dashboard that displays KPIs from every department. Each widget is live and pulls real-time data. Drag widgets to rearrange, or use the widget selector in the top-right to add or remove cards. Widgets span Call Center, CRM, ERP, Messaging, and System status.

Sidebar Navigation

The sidebar groups pages by department: Call Center, CRM, ERP, Messaging, Analytics, and Settings. Click any section to expand it. Your visible sections depend on the role assigned by your administrator — agents see only call center pages, managers see reports, and admins see everything.

Quick Actions

Use the command bar (press / anywhere) to jump to any page, start a call, create a lead, or ask the AI copilot a question. Quick Actions also appear as shortcut cards on Mission Control.

02

Call Center

Handle calls, manage queues, monitor agents, and review recordings.

Making and Receiving Calls

Calls are routed through the built-in softphone or your desk phone extension. Inbound calls ring in the browser with caller ID and CRM match. Click the green phone icon to answer. To dial out, use the dialer widget or click any phone number in a CRM record.

Call Queues & IVR

Incoming calls pass through an IVR menu (press 1 for sales, press 2 for support) and land in the appropriate queue. Queue settings control hold music, agent priority, ring strategy (round-robin, longest-idle, ring-all), and overflow rules when no agents are available.

Live Dashboard & Wallboard

The Live Dashboard shows active calls, waiting callers, agent states, and average wait time in real time. Supervisors can open the Wallboard for a full-screen display suitable for a call center TV. Metrics refresh every few seconds.

Supervisor Tools

Supervisors can listen to a live call silently, whisper instructions to the agent without the caller hearing, or barge in to join the conversation. These controls appear next to each active call in the Supervisor Panel.

Call Recordings

Every call is recorded automatically. Recordings appear in the call history with playback controls and a download button. Use the search bar to find recordings by date, agent, number, or duration.

Auto-Dialer & Campaigns

Upload a contact list, configure the dialer mode (sequential, power, or predictive), and launch a campaign. The system dials the next number automatically when an agent becomes available. Outcomes (answered, no answer, busy, voicemail) are tracked per contact.

03

CRM & Sales

Manage leads, opportunities, quotations, and customer relationships.

Leads

Leads are created from web forms, inbound calls, messaging channels, or manually. Each lead has a status (New, Contacted, Qualified, Lost) and an assigned owner. Assignment rules can distribute leads automatically by territory, source, or round-robin.

Opportunities & Pipeline

Convert a qualified lead into an opportunity. Opportunities move through pipeline stages (Prospecting, Proposal, Negotiation, Closed Won, Closed Lost). The pipeline view gives you a visual Kanban board with deal values and win probability.

Quotations & Orders

Create a quotation from an opportunity, add line items, and send it to the customer. Once accepted, convert it to a sales order with one click. The sales order flows into delivery and invoicing without re-entering data.

Customer 360

Every customer record shows a complete timeline: calls, messages, emails, invoices, support tickets, and notes. Click any timeline entry to open the full record. The 360 view is the single source of truth for any customer interaction.

Web Form Tracking

Embed Octavion tracking on your website to capture form submissions with source attribution. Each submission creates a lead with the UTM parameters, referrer, and page URL attached — so you know which campaign brought them in.

04

ERP & Finance

Accounting, inventory, purchasing, HR, payroll, and manufacturing.

Accounting

The general ledger records every transaction automatically from sales invoices, purchase invoices, and journal entries. View the trial balance, profit and loss, balance sheet, and cash flow at any time. All reports are generated from live data — no manual month-end close required.

Invoicing & VAT

Create sales invoices from sales orders or standalone. VAT is calculated automatically based on item tax templates. The system supports FTA-compliant e-invoicing for UAE businesses. Recurring invoices can be scheduled for subscription billing.

Inventory & Warehousing

Track stock across multiple warehouses with serial number and batch tracking. Set reorder levels to receive alerts when stock runs low. Stock entries handle receipts, transfers, and adjustments. Valuation methods include FIFO, moving average, and LIFO.

Purchasing

Create purchase orders from material requests or reorder alerts. Track supplier quotations, compare prices, and convert the best quote to a purchase order. Goods receipts update inventory automatically.

HR & Payroll

Manage employee records, attendance, leave applications, and expense claims. Payroll runs generate WPS-ready payslips with salary components, deductions, and employer contributions. Payslips can be emailed to employees automatically.

Projects & Tasks

Create projects with task lists, assign team members, and track time with timesheets. Project profitability reports show revenue versus cost per project. Manufacturing users can create BOMs, work orders, and track production.

05

Messaging

WhatsApp, SMS, Telegram, web chat — all channels in one inbox.

Omnichannel Inbox

All conversations from WhatsApp, SMS, Telegram, Viber, Facebook Messenger, Instagram DMs, and web chat appear in a single inbox. Click any conversation to see the full thread and reply. The customer's CRM record is shown alongside the chat for context.

WhatsApp Business

Connect your WhatsApp Business API account in Settings → WhatsApp. Send template messages for notifications (order confirmations, appointment reminders) and free-form replies within the 24-hour window. Bulk campaigns use pre-approved templates.

SMS

Send and receive SMS through your connected Twilio number or SIP trunk. Two-way SMS threads are stored in the messaging inbox and linked to the customer's CRM record.

Web Chat Widget

Add the Octavion chat widget to your website with a single script tag. Visitors can start a conversation that your agents handle from the messaging inbox. If no agent is available, the widget collects a name and email for follow-up.

06

AI Copilot

Ask your business anything — reports, analysis, and coaching in natural language.

Asking Questions

Open the AI Copilot from the sidebar or press / and type your question. Ask in plain English or Arabic: "What were our top 10 customers by revenue last quarter?" or "Show me call volume by hour for this week." The copilot queries your live data and returns a formatted answer.

Report Generation

Ask the copilot to generate reports: sales summaries, call center performance, inventory status, or accounts receivable aging. Reports include tables, charts, and key insights. You can ask follow-up questions to drill deeper.

Call Intelligence

The copilot transcribes calls automatically and scores them for sentiment and script compliance. Ask "Show me calls where customers mentioned a competitor" or "Which agent had the best satisfaction scores this month?"

Business Scope

The copilot is scoped to your business data by design. It will not answer personal questions, write code, or perform tasks outside your Octavion workspace. This ensures responses are always relevant and data stays within your system.

07

Settings & Administration

Users, roles, telephony, integrations, security, and system configuration.

User Management

Administrators add team members in Settings → Team. Each user gets a role (Admin, Manager, Agent, Viewer) that controls which pages and actions they can access. Invitations are sent by email with a secure login link.

Telephony & SIP Trunks

Configure your phone system in Settings → Telephony. Add SIP trunks with presets for Etisalat and du (IP authentication) or any international provider (registration). The system connects to your PBX and applies changes to FreeSWITCH automatically. Enable/disable trunks and monitor registration status from the same page.

Integrations & API Keys

Connect external services in Settings → Integrations. Manage API keys for programmatic access — each key can be scoped to specific permissions. Webhook endpoints let external systems push events into Octavion.

Security

Review login history and security events in Settings → Security. The audit log tracks who did what and when across the platform. Session management lets administrators revoke active sessions for any user.

Branding & Appearance

White-label the platform with your own logo, colors, and domain. Changes apply across the dashboard, login page, and customer-facing widgets (chat, callback forms). Available on Enterprise plans.
