All Businesses & Actions

Written By Anand Raj

Last updated 13 days ago

The Businesses module is the central directory of every business connected to your agency. From here you can search any business, add a new one, and run quick actions like View, Edit and Reset directly from the list. It surfaces high-level lifecycle metrics, historical trends, integration usage, and churn risk indicators, enabling agencies to monitor account health and take proactive action.

Open the Businesses module

From the left sidebar of the Agency Portal, click Businesses.

The module can be viewed in two views using the toggle in the top-right corner:

  • List View — a tabular listing of all businesses. (described in this document).

  • Insights View — a dashboard view with charts and churn analytics

Lists View

Each row shows the business Name, Business Code, Email, Locations, Billing Start, Package, Account Status (Active, Past Due, Inactive, Archived) and the Action icons. User can Search and filter the list.

  1. Use the Search business bar at the top to find a business by name or email.

  2. Use the Tags filter to narrow the list to businesses carrying one or more tags. The dropdown is grouped by tag category and shows how many tags are currently selected (for example, 4 Selected).

  3. Use the Status filter on the right to narrow the list (Active, Past Due, Inactive, Archived).

Add Business (top-right CTA)

The + Add Business button at the top right lets you create a business directly from the Agency Portal.

Important: Avoid creating live businesses from here. The recommended path to onboard any real business is the Business Onboarding form, which captures everything required for go-live (billing, locations, owner details, telephony, etc.).

Use Add Business only for your exploration phase, internal test businesses or demo accounts. For live businesses, always use the Business Onboarding form.

Business Code

The Business Code shown in the second column is a system-generated unique identifier for each business. It never changes and is the safest way to reference a business across teams.

Use the Business Code when:

  • You raise a support request with the Kickcall team — share the code so we can locate the business instantly.

  • Your own internal team needs to reference a specific business in tickets, notes or handovers.

Tags

The Tags column lets you label each business so your team can segment the directory the way you work — by risk, by size, by call volume or by how you service the account. Tags are internal to your agency: the business never sees them.

a. Add or remove tags

  1. In the Tags column of a row, click + Add. The Add Tags to Business panel opens with the business name pre-filled.

  2. Open the Tags dropdown and tick every tag you want to apply. Selected tags appear as chips at the top of the field.

  3. Remove a tag by clicking the × on its chip — either inside the panel or directly on the row.

  4. Click Save. The tags appear on the row immediately.

b. Tag categories

Tags are grouped into four categories:

  • Churn Signal — No Calls Today, Short Avg Call Duration, Integration Disconnected, Low Opportunity Options, Slow Booking Flow, Below 10x ROI, Delayed Go-Live, Sandbox Enabled. These mirror the churn signals surfaced in Businesses Insights.

  • Company Size — Solo Practitioner, Small Business, Mid Market, Enterprise.

  • Monthly Call Volume — Under 100 Calls, 100–500 Calls, 500–2K Calls, 2K+ Calls.

  • Customer Success Tags — Integration Sponsor, VIP Customer, High Touch, Low Touch, Escalated, Beta Customer, Success Story.

c. How teams use tags

  • Filter the list to every business carrying a churn signal and work that queue first.

  • Separate high-touch and low-touch accounts so success work is distributed correctly.

  • Pull a list of Beta Customers or Success Stories when you need references or test accounts.

Tip: A business can hold multiple tags across all four categories at once. Keep tagging consistent across your team so the Tags filter stays reliable.

Row actions

Each row has three quick action icons on the right:

a. View (eye icon) — Impersonate

Clicking View impersonates the business and jumps you directly into the Business Portal for that account. You see exactly what the business owner sees and can troubleshoot from their point of view.

Note: Every impersonation is recorded inside that business's Audit Trails, so the business and your team always have a record of who accessed the account and when.

b. Edit (pencil icon)

Clicking Edit opens the business detail page where you can change the business's profile and configuration — name, contact details, locations, agents, integrations and more. See Manage Business Details & Configurations for the full walkthrough.

c. Reset & Start Billing (circular arrow icon)

Use Reset & Start Billing right before delivering the AI agent to a business and before they go live. This action clears all test activity from the account so the business starts with a clean workspace, and it marks the official start of billing for that business.

When you click Reset, a confirmation modal opens explaining what will be cleared:

  • Call logs, worksheets, and recordings created during testing

  • Configuration change history

  • AI governance and compliance logs

To confirm, type the business name in the Business name field and click Reset & Start Billing.

Important: A business can be reset only once. After it has been reset, the action becomes non-editable (the icon is disabled) and cannot be triggered again. This action cannot be undone.

Billing note: Call minutes used during testing will still be billed to the Agency. Reset only removes the visible activity to prepare the account for handover — it does not reverse usage charges. From the moment you click Reset & Start Billing, the business's billing cycle officially begins.

View cancellation reason and feedback

When a business cancels its own subscription, a cancellation-reason icon appears on the business row in the All Businesses list. This gives your team immediate context on why the business left without having to open the account.

a. What the icon shows

Hover over or click the icon to see:

  • Cancellation reason — the option the business selected when cancelling (for example, Too Expensive).

  • Cancellation feedback — any free-text comment the business entered explaining the decision.

b. Where the information comes from

The reason and feedback are collected from the cancellation flow in the Business Portal. When a business owner chooses to cancel, they select a reason from the dropdown and can add additional feedback before confirming. That same data is then surfaced on the agency side.

Note: The cancellation-reason icon only appears when a business cancels its subscription directly. It is not shown for accounts that were set to Inactive or Archived by an agency user, or for accounts that became inactive due to billing failure.
