CATI Manager is a section available from the side menu available to authorised users. 

CATI Manager - The INVADE basic CATI, this section allows you to load basic sample stored in a .csv style document such as Microsoft Excel. This is to aid preview or predictive dial campaigns that do not require the full function of a CATI. This section works directly with CATI Interviewer section allowing the interviewer to interact with the sample loaded. Supported dial methods are Predictive, Preview, Manual (Manual Dial Solution)

In this example, we will create a PREDICTIVE campaign and load sample to the INVADE Solution CATI
To create a new campaign click on the cross  
Enter a campaign name, in this example INVADE110618
Select the dial method required (Note: the terminology is familiar to most CATI), in this example PREDICTIVE
Set the No answer timeout, in this example 20 seconds


Click  'Start' to activate the campaign located at the footer of the column
NOTE - Load the Sample Sample will be required to run a Predictive campaign
To load the sample for the new campaign, click  Load Sample CSV to choose File
From the dialogue pop up box select the .csv file and click open, in this example INVADE050518.csv 
Confirm you are ready to load the sample click  Upload sample INVADE050518.csv
To activate the campaign with the sample loaded click  Load sample CSV
NOTE. The list of Interviewers for the campaign can be checked, click Refresh at any time (Note. to create and manage interviewers, see 'CATI Interviewer' section
To stop the campaign click   close

NOTE. For all campaigns, at least 1 call has to be made, if not the INVADE Solution will not keep a record available from the 'old' campaigns tab.
NOTE. To use this campaign, agents will be required to 'logon' within the CATI Interviewer section (see Cati Interviewer section)
Manual Calls USING the INVADE Solution (PREVIEW)
To use the INVADE solution to track manual calls (no sample loaded to the INVADE Solution) you will need to create a PREVIEW campaign and calls can be made using the INVADE Solution CATI Interviewer. In this example, the number 994000001 is entered and dialled.
The campaign is created as described above and select Preview for the dial method. once and CATI interviewer is logged on they can enter a number and click on the dial button. 
Manual Calls NOT using the INVADE Solution (MANUAL) - Manual Dial Solution 
To use the INVADE solution to track manual calls (no sample loaded to the INVADE Solution and separate handset/softphone used to dial the number. NOTE. This is a requirement for USA, Auto Diallers cannot be used to dial cell devices) you will need to create a MANUAL campaign and calls can be made using the extension number registered to the user.
The campaign is created as described above and select MANUAL for the dial method. once and CATI interviewer is logged on they can enter a number and click on the dial button. Once the dial button has been pressed they will be allowed to make this call from separate handset/softphone by keying the same numbers and dialling the call. NOTE. if the numbers do not match the call will not progress
NOTE. Other dial methods are available but are not supported at this time.
