ROCKRMS INTEGRATION (OLD)

Intulse's RockRMS integration merges your phone with your RMS (relationship management system). Any screen in the Intulse App that would normally display a simple phone number automatically searches the caller ID within RockRMS and returns any contact or organization records that match. There are two levels of integration between Intulse and Rock, they are detailed below.

1. INTULSE STANDARD CRM INTEGRATION

When someone calls you instead of displaying the Caller ID you'll see the name of the contact as it appears in RockRMS and can click on the name to launch their account within RockRMS. You can quickly add call notes to a contact's activity and the note will automatically contain all the basic information about the call such as start time, duration, direction (inbound/outbound), and if the if the call was recorded, a link to the recording. You will be able to start calls to RockRMS contacts directly from within the Intulse App by simply searching for a contact name on the My Phone screen.

To experience the integration between Intulse and RockRMS you will need to use the Intulse App.

Connecting RockRMS To The Intulse App

This guide assumes that you already have the Intulse App on your favorite device and that you are already logged in. If you need help getting into the App click here to learn more.

1. Click the More icon on the menu
2. Click RockRMS in the More menu
3. Enter your RockRMS Username and Password
4. Click the Save button to save your changes

If you are an Admin in the Intulse App you have access to additional settings:

• REQUIRED Enter the base URL of your RockRMS instance. (e.g. https://rock.mychurch.org)
• Optionally, you can enter the API URL of your RockRMS instance. You should only do this if you have a custom version of Rock running and have changed the default API URL. (e.g. https://rock.mychurch.org/customapi)
• Optionally, you can enter a default username and password for your organization that will be used when interacting with RockRMS if a user has not logged in themselves.

2. ROCKRMS PLUGIN FROM INTULSE

First you will need to install the Intulse plugin which is available for free in the Rock Shop. Then, to fully utilize the Intulse plugin, you need to configure a few things in Rock.

Configure The Phone System Settings

Navigate to your Admin Tools > System Settings > Phone Systems page. Once there you should see an entry for “Intulse Phone System” that you can click on to begin configuration.

1. Set Active to “Yes.”
2. Set Internal Phone Type to “Intulse.” If you’re upgrading from an early version of the plugin you may have created this manually, so it may have a different name. Choose the phone type created to store your internal Intulse extensions.*
3. Set Intulse API Key to your Master API Key which you can obtain from the Intulse Dashboard on the Profile screen.
4. Setting Full Import to “Yes” will make the next import refresh ALL of your call records. This can be taxing on the system and should be run off hours. After running a full import this option will automatically reset to “No”, so it will not affect each iteration of your scheduled job. This should only be necessary if something goes terribly wrong with your call log data.
5. Save your changes.

Create Scheduled Job

You will need to add a new Scheduled Job under Admin Tools > System Settings > Jobs Administration in order to have Rock import the call log data from your phone system. Create a new job to match the information below.

1. Set a Name that you will recognize.
2. Set the Job Type to Pbx Cdr Download.
3. Set the PBX Component to Intulse Phone System.
4. Set the Cron Expression to 0 0/15 * 1/1 * ? *. This will create a job that runs every 15 minutes and imports any new call logs.
5. Save your changes.

Viewing Interactions (Phone Call and Text Message History)

To view your phone call and text message history simply go to a Person and add a Page Block. The block type you want is called “Intulse Communication Block”. Click save, and then done. This same block can also be used on Business pages as well.

Important Last Steps

It is critical that each of your users have their Intulse Extension entered correctly on their profile:

You should also create a Business (go to Finance > Businesses) that represents your church. Make sure that your church’s telephone number is listed as one of its phone numbers (usually the Work number).

Using The Block

Once you have setup your users’ extensions, imported your data, and added your block, you should be able to view a Person’s phone call and SMS history!.

Filtering: Click on “Filter Options” to show various options by which you can narrow down your communication history.
Notes: Click on the Edit/Pencil button on right side of an entry to add a note to a call or SMS record.
