| **After-call work**                   | The **Wrap-up** [agent state](/agent/agent-states) that follows a call, used to record a disposition or finish notes before taking the next one.                                                                                                    |
| **Agent**                             | A user who takes or places calls. Distinct from **user**, which refers to anyone with a login regardless of role.                                                                                                                                   |
| **AMD (answering machine detection)** | A per-campaign setting that classifies each connected call as a human or a machine answer before deciding whether to bridge it to an agent. See [How the dialer paces calls](/outbound/how-pacing-works).                                           |
| **Audit log**                         | The record of who changed a user, role, or workspace setting, and when. See [Search the audit log](/account/audit-log).                                                                                                                             |
| **Business hours schedule**           | A weekly schedule of open and closed windows, plus holidays, in its own time zone. See [Create a business hours schedule](/inbound/business-hours).                                                                                                 |
| **Caller ID rule**                    | A rule that routes an inbound call to a destination based on the caller's number, evaluated before the phone number's own routing rule. See [Route inbound calls by caller ID](/voice/caller-id-rules).                                             |
| **Calling hours**                     | The time windows a campaign is allowed to dial in, evaluated in each lead's own time zone. See [Calling hours](/compliance/calling-hours).                                                                                                          |
| **Campaign**                          | An outbound dialing job: a dial mode, a lead list, assigned agents, and dispositions. See [Outbound and dialer](/outbound/overview).                                                                                                                |
| **Capability**                        | A fine-grained permission (none, read, or write) on a specific resource, such as carriers or recordings. Roles are a starting set of capabilities. See [Roles and permissions](/account/roles-and-permissions).                                     |
| **Carrier**                           | Your SIP trunk connection to the phone network. See [Connect a SIP carrier](/voice/connect-a-carrier).                                                                                                                                              |

| **Dial mode**                         | The setting that decides who initiates each outbound call and how far ahead of agent availability the dialer works: preview, progressive, power, or predictive. See [Dial modes](/outbound/dial-modes).                                             |
| **Disposition**                       | The outcome an agent records at the end of a call, which decides whether the lead is retried, closed, or suppressed. See [Dispositions](/outbound/dispositions/overview).                                                                           |
| **Disposition list**                  | A named, reusable set of dispositions you assign to a campaign instead of picking codes one by one. See [Create a disposition list](/outbound/dispositions/disposition-lists).                                                                      |
| **DNC (do not call)**                 | Get2Dial's workspace-wide suppression list. A number on it is never dialed by any campaign. See [DNC lists](/compliance/dnc-lists).                                                                                                                 |

| **Entitlement**                       | A limit or allowance granted by your plan. See [Limits and quotas](/reference/limits-and-quotas).                                                                                                                                                   |

| **Lead**                              | A contact record in a campaign's lead list, dialed by the campaign. See [Lead fields](/outbound/leads/lead-fields).                                                                                                                                 |

| **Predictive dialing**                | The dial mode that estimates how many calls to place from recent connect-rate data, so an agent is free right as a call connects. See [Dial modes](/outbound/dial-modes).                                                                           |

| **Ring group**                        | A set of agents rung together (simultaneously or in sequence), simpler than a queue — no strategy or membership priority. See [Create a ring group](/inbound/ring-groups).                                                                          |

| **SSO (single sign-on)**              | Signing in through your organization's identity provider instead of a Get2Dial password. Get2Dial supports OIDC identity providers. See [Require single sign-on](/account/single-sign-on).                                                          |
| **Subscriber**                        | A set of SIP credentials (username, password, domain) a device registers with. Every user gets one automatically; you can add extra subscribers for shared devices. See [Connect a device and check registration](/voice/devices-and-registration). |
