Configurations Of Dialer from Admin panel

System Configurations

Goautodial does not have a desktop manager installed so you need to access it via network from your workstation, the server's default IP Address is 192.168.1.2

Open http://192.168.1.2/ using Firefox (We highly recommend using Firefox web browser)

Click ADMIN LOGINusername: adminpassword: goautodial

Configure Default Gateway

Default Gateway is not configured by default so you have to manually configure it, you can also change the IP Address from the same menu.

Click on Systems/Network > Configuration > eth0 config

Set the default gateway and click Go

Update Database IP

If you changed the IP address of the server you also need to update the IP addresses entries in the database:

Click on Systems/Network > Configuration > Update Database IP

Carrier Configuration

Before you can start dialing, you need to configure your carrier/trunk, if you do not have your own carrier yet you can sign up for an account at http://goautodial.com/voip-store/

How To Load Leads

1. If this is the first time you will load leads, you need to create a List first, go to Lists > Add a New List and make sure you select the campaign you will use, for this guide you can use the default campaign TESTCAMP

See below for a sample .csv format list/leads file:

"PHONE NUMBER","FIRST NAME","LAST NAME ","ADDRESS1","CITY","STATE","POSTAL CODE" 2127773456,"first1","last1","Address 1","city","NY",123452127773456,"first2","last2","Address 2","city","NY",123452127773456,"first3","last3","Address 3","city","NY",123452127773456,"first4","last4","Address 4","city","NY",123452127773456,"first5","last5","Address 5","city","NY",12345

2. Go to Lists > Load New Leads > Browse the list file in .csv format > type the Listid you created in the List ID Override > type 1 in the Phone Code Override if you are calling US

numbers > Select Custom Layout > Submit

3. Select the appropriate fields via the drop down menu then click OK TO PROCESS

If the loading of leads is successful you will see something similar to this:

Go to Campaigns > TESTCAMP

You can see that the leads are successfully loaded and there are currently 5 leads in the dial hopper.

If the dial hopper is not being populated try to set the Local Call Time to 24hours:Campaigns > TESTCAMP > Detail view> Set the Local Call Time to 24 Hours > Submit
