You can use **Unaric Voice** within the **Salesforce Service Cloud Console**, with or without the **Interaction Log**. Some setup steps and behavior differ compared to standard Salesforce Lightning pages, especially when using the console view.

## UI

In the Service Cloud Console, the **Unaric Voice softphone** is **minimized in the lower-right corner** by default. To open it, click the 📞 **phone icon.&#x20;**&#x54;he softphone also opens automatically when a call starts.

### Incoming call

Calls are displayed in the softphone with a **green frame**. If the caller is recognized:

- The **Account** loads in the **primary tab**
- The **Contact** and **Case** load in **subtabs**
- The softphone automatically displays the contact or account and **assigns it to the call**.

### Outgoing calls

Calls are displayed in the softphone with a **blue frame&#x20;**&#x6F;n the right side of the screen. When dialing from the Account or Contact list view:

- The **Account** opens in the **primary tab**
- The **Contact** and **Case** open in **subtabs**

## Cases integration

The Service Cloud Console is often used in environments that rely heavily on cases records, which are used to track and manage **customer issues, inquiries, or requests**.

### How it works

You can use Unaric Voice from the Service Cloud Console —as well as Sales Cloud— to:

- Automatically create a Case for an **incoming** or **outgoing** call. The case is in *edit mode* and can be canceled if no case should be created.
- Display today's Case automatically when the call starts.

To automatically create or open a case, it is mandatory that the caller can be identified as a **contact** or **account.&#x20;**&#x49;f no record is found, you can **manually select** a contact or account and then the case is created automatically.

:::hint{type="info"}
This functionality is not available for **Leads.**

### Assign case to calls

Use the Assign button to assign the case.

If the **Case is saved during the call**, it is **automatically assigned** to the call when the call ends. If the **call ends before the Case is saved**:

1. Save the Case in Salesforce.
2. &#x20;Click **Save** in the Unaric Voice softphone to assign the call to the Case. If this step is skipped, the call will only be assigned to the Account or Contact, not the Case.

### Outgoing calls

When dialing from the account or contact list view, the **account** will load in th&#x65;**&#x20;primary tab** while the contact and the case will load in a **subtab**.

### Assignment rules

A call activity can be assigned to:

- A **Contact and Case**
- A **Case only** (no Account or Contact)
- A **Contact only**
- A **Contact and Account**
- An **Account only**

:::BlockQuote
🔔 A call can **never** be assigned to an **Account and Case** at the same time.
&#x20;✅ **Best practice**: always select a **Contact** when assigning a Case.
:::

## Interaction Log

The **Interaction Log** is a feature specific to the Service Cloud Console. It allows you to take notes separately from the Unaric Voice softphone.

However, due to its limitations, we **do not recommend using the Interaction Log**, since:

- Unaric Voice already includes built-in note-taking
- The Interaction Log lacks support for record assignment and wrap-up logic

:::hint{type="info"}
To enable the Interaction Log, see: Service Cloud Setup
:::

### How it works

- You can click **Save Log** while the call is active.
- Never click **Save & New Log** during a call — use it **after the call ends**.
- I&#x66;*&#x20;Call Wrap-Up* o&#x72;*&#x20;Call Result* options are enabled, select the result before clicking **Save & New Log**.

  ![](https://helpserver.biz/onlinehelp/cdc/sf/5.0/help2000/images/service-cloud-interaction-log-mod.png)
- Automatic logging (e.g., auto-create task) only works if **Save Log** is clicked while the call is active.

:::hint{type="warning"}
Assignment to records (Account, Contact, Case) is not supported through the Interaction Log.
:::

### Multi-monitor support

Unaric Voice supports **multi-monitor setups** in the Service Cloud Console.

- You can **pop out** the softphone and move it to another location on the same screen or a separate monitor.
- Use the pop-out icon in the upper-right corner of the softphone to drag it freely.

:::hint{type="info"}
You need to enabl&#x65;**&#x20;Multi-Monitor Support** in th&#x65;**&#x20;Service Cloud** setup.
