Have more questions? Submit a request

There are two ways a user can access Conversations: the Conversations page and the Conversations tab in a transaction. This article will explain how to open each Conversations view and the differences between the two.

 

The Conversations Page

The Conversations page will display all conversations (including call logs) where the user is the sender, recipient, or a follower

To access the Conversations page, click the Conversations button in the top right corner of the screen. This button can be found on any page in O4 except when Conversations is already open. The button will display gray or red depending on the status of the user's messages.

Call Logs

When a call log is created from the Conversations tab, it will appear as a message thread denoted by the OI_CONVERSATION_PHONE_CALL_ICON.svg  icon. Users can reply and follow users on threads that have a call, however, they cannot attach calls to an existing message thread. Learn more about creating a call log in a transaction.
