All received faxes and Direct messages arrive in My Intake. There are multiple ways of filtering those messages, including rules, filters, and sorting. 

Example - Administrator's Intake, viewed by 'All' and filtered by 'In Progress' status.

The pane to access View, Rules, and status Filters options is located on the right of My Intake.

View

The default View for account admins is All, but can be switched to By Rules, to see My Intake filtered by specific Intake Rules, or by Unassigned, meaning messages that are not assigned to a user through an Intake Rule.

View All

The only View option for users is By Rules.

By Rules

By Rules

Rules route a message or batch to a user or group of users. There is one “system” rule called “Assigned To Me.” This rule is present for all users by default and displays batches or messages assigned to “My Intake” by that particular user in the batch upload or triage process.

For batches or messages other than those assigned to “My Intake,” there are two other types of rules. These are called Message rules and Triage rules, and will appear under the “My Rules” section on the right. They are created by the account administrator and route a message or batch based on one of the following:

  • To or From address, Direct address or Fax number

  • A user or group of users

Date Range, Address Filter, and Sort by received date

You can sort the messages in My Intake with the following options:

Date Range

To display messages only from a certain date range, select the calendar icon to choose your preferred range.

You may select from Today, Yesterday, Last 7 Days, Last 30 Days, This Month, Last Month, or select a Custom Range. Select Apply to apply your preferred option to My Intake. Select Reset to return to the default range.

After 30 days, faxes and Direct messages in My Intake are accessed via the Date Range. Faxes and Direct messages in My Intake are available for 180 days.

Address Filter

To display only messages for a specific To or From address, enter your search criteria in the Address Filter field and select the filter icon at the end of the field.
