Configuring the Channel Details |
To configure channel details, use the Channel section of the Configure Channel screen:
- In the Channel name field, type the channel name. This is the name that will identify the channel on the dashboard and in the logs.
- In the Description text area, you can optionally type a brief description of this channel. This description can include information such as the client facility, purpose, organization name, site name or CRM number.

| If you have defined a large number of channels, you can use the Dashboard to search for a channel name or description. See Searching for Channels in the Dashboard for more details. | ||
