Functionality Across Cisco Interface Grids
All grids that are present in the Cisco Interface with PCR-360 allow for:
Selecting the Call Manager with the button.
Add new records with the button.
Note: the 'Gateway' grid can not add new records.
Update existing records with the button.
Remove existing records with the button.
Note: the 'Gateway' grid can not add new records.
The 'Cisco Audit Log' can only view records of when updates were made.
This interface module emulates what is already available on the Call Manager. As such much of this Article will just provide an example of what the Grids and Forms look like.

Audit Log
The Cisco 'Audit Log' is the primary reason to utilize the Cisco Switch Interface within PCR-360. By use of the Audit Logs, a User is able to see what updates were performed when, and who made them.
When numerous records are created, PCR-360 begins an archiving process to store the older records into other tables to improve performance. To access archived records use the Table Selector field on the grid header.
Cisco Switch Interfacing with Service Desk
A 'Service' with the Service Host of Cisco and a Pending Service Order for the Service are Required to perform the following Action.
