Record decisions and follow-ups in Kickcall Team Notes, link them to a business or agent, and filter the feed to review the relevant history

Before anyone on your team changes a Business's billing, agent configuration, or telephony, they need to know what was promised, what was tried, and what went wrong before.
Team Notes is an internal collaboration space that keeps your support and agent teams in sync and preserves a long-term history of every Business's important conversations and decisions. Notes are visible only inside your agency — Businesses never see them.

Manage your internal team notes in Kickcall

Team Notes Overview

Team Notes allows agency team members to share and maintain important information about a Business. You can add notes linked to a specific Business or one of its agents, or post general updates for the entire agency team. Notes remain available for the lifetime of the Business, preserving context for future reference. Whenever a note is created, the rest of the agency team receives an in-app notification and an email.

Important notes

  • You can edit or delete only the notes you authored. Notes created by other agency members are read-only for you. This protects the integrity of every teammate's history.

  • Notes are retained for the lifetime of the Business in your agency — the long-term history is the whole point of the feature.

  • We recommend editing for typos only. For substantive updates, post a new note so the history stays intact.

When Team Notes help

  • Billing changes: Before applying a new coupon or changing a Business's package, the team can see that "Refund processed last month — do not double-charge" or "Owner promised 10% discount on renewal."

  • Agent configuration: Before editing agent prompts or voice engine settings, a note like "Owner specifically requested formal tone, do not change to casual" prevents reverting a deliberate choice.

  • Subscription & renewals: Notes such as "Client wants to add 2 more agents next month" or "Considering downgrade — follow up in 2 weeks" give sales and support a shared view of pipeline activity.

Best practices

  • Always link the note to the right Business — it makes future filtering trivial.

  • Write a clear title; future teammates scan titles first.

  • Capture decisions and promises, not just events ("Promised free month if downtime > 2h").

  • Check the Business's notes feed before any configuration, billing, or agent change.

Expected result

The note appears at the top of the feed, linked to the Business (and agent, if selected). Every other agency member receives an in-app notification and an email.

Verify the result

  1. Filter the feed by the Business you linked and confirm the note appears with the correct title and author.

  2. Ask a teammate to confirm they received the notification.


Frequently Asked Questions

No. Team Notes are strictly internal to your agency. Businesses have no visibility into this feed.

You can edit or delete only your own notes. Notes posted by other agency members are visible to you but read-only — only the original author (or someone with the right admin permission) can change them. We recommend editing for typos only — for substantive updates, post a new note so the history stays intact.

Yes. Leave the Businesses field empty when creating the note and it will appear as a general team-wide update (useful for process changes, policy reminders, or holiday schedules).

Notes are retained for the lifetime of the Business in your agency. This is intentional — the long-term history is the whole point of the feature.

Notification preferences for Team Notes can be configured under My Profile & Preferences → Change Notification Preferences.
