Viewing the 360-Degree Communications List

Communication manager maintains a correspondence list that keeps track of all incoming and outgoing communications (also known as a 360-degree view).

The list initially displays in chronological order, but you can sort, filter, and search the correspondence list by title, communication type, from, to, sent date, and initiating event. You can use the operands “&” and “or” when filtering the correspondence list. For example, you can filter all communications of type = email or of type = SMS.

The correspondence list contains the following types of communications:

  • Emails

  • Text Messages

  • Meeting Requests

To view the 360-degree communications list

  1. Access the Communications Manager portlet by clicking the main link in Civic Platform.

    If you do not have a main link to the Communications Manager portlet, create one by Setting Up Your Console and Home Page.

    Civic Platform displays the four categories of correspondence.
