Frequently Asked Questions About Tasks & Agenda
Can a task be closed without logging a conversation outcome?
No. volbor enforces pipeline hygiene: when closing a task, the rep must select an outcome from a predefined list or add a summary note and schedule the next touchpoint.
How does mobile calendar sync work?
Through the standard CalDAV protocol, volbor tasks sync as a dedicated calendar in iOS or Android. You see your daily agenda directly inside your native smartphone calendar with native reminders.
What happens if a task is overdue by more than 1 hour?
The system shifts the card to red, logs an SLA breach in the employee's analytical performance score, and dispatches a notification to the sales lead via Telegram.
Can a sales rep delete a task to hide an overdue deadline?
No. Task deletion permissions are restricted by Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). All deadline rescheduling history is permanently tracked in the deal audit log.
