Callcompleted

Hamza Akhtar checked connector progress with Monique Fairley and Javier Ortiz. Salesforce and Zendesk are healthy, the call recorder is slow and the accounting API key is waiting on a vendor ticket. Go-live was two weeks away.
What was said
What this says
As at Fri 9 Oct 2026Hamza Akhtar checked connector progress with Monique Fairley and Javier Ortiz. Salesforce and Zendesk are healthy, the call recorder is slow and the accounting API key is waiting on a vendor ticket. Go-live was two weeks away.
What happened: Six weeks into implementation, Hamza reviewed connectors. Salesforce and Zendesk data is flowing, the call recorder is slower than wanted, and the accounting system still lacks an API key.
Customer view: Monique says early users have asked about platform volumes and the answers match Salesforce. She wants call duration and outcome, plus her team's performance against SLAs.
Commercial: Monique asked for merchant success only at first, while Hamza described going live with merchant success and finance. The evidence does not show which scope was agreed.
Watch: The evidence does not show whether go-live happened on time or whether the accounting connector was completed. Javier still owes the SLA status field name.

Follow-up
Next steps
As at Fri 9 Oct 2026- Hamza Akhtar to chase Dana about the accounting API key.
- Javier Ortiz to send the SLA status field name so Hamza can pull it.
- Hamza Akhtar to confirm with Monique whether finance is in the first go-live.
Risks
As at Fri 9 Oct 2026- The accounting system connector is blocked on an API key and a vendor ticket.
- The call recorder is loading slowly because of an API queue on the customer side.
Opportunities
As at Fri 9 Oct 2026- Monique wants call outcome and SLA performance in the brain, which would deepen use beyond merchant success.
- Finance is planned to go live alongside merchant success, which widens the user base.
Transcript
Hamza AkhtarMonique, Javier, good to see you. We're at six weeks in, and I wanted to check where we are with the connectors and whether the data looks like what you expected.
Javier OrtizHi Hamza. Salesforce is flowing fine. The call recorder's been a bit slow, but I think that's on our side, the API's queuing.- Hamza AkhtarYeah, that's common. The call recorder's fine on our end, you might need to open a ticket with them about the API limit. In the meantime, data's coming through?
- Javier OrtizYeah, it's there, just slower than we'd like.
- Hamza AkhtarThat's okay. We're live in two weeks, we'll fix it before then. Monique, what's your team saying? Are people asking questions yet?
Monique FairleyA bit, yes. A couple of folks have logged in and asked about platform volumes. The data matches what they're seeing in Salesforce, which is good.- Hamza AkhtarThat's great. And Zendesk, are the tickets coming through?
- Javier OrtizAll of them. That connector's been solid.
- Hamza AkhtarNice. So we've got several of our connectors live and healthy. The accounting system, did you get the API key sorted?
- Monique FairleyDana's been working on that. I think we're waiting on a vendor ticket, but it's in motion.
- Hamza AkhtarOkay, let me reach out to Dana and see if I can nudge it. In the meantime, your team, what else do they want to see in the brain?
- Monique FairleyCall duration and outcome, so whether the merchant got what they needed, that kind of thing. And I want to see our own team's performance against SLAs.
- Hamza AkhtarBoth of those are doable. Call duration's in the call recorder already. For SLAs, that lives in Salesforce? We can pull it once Javier confirms which field holds it.
- Javier OrtizYeah, it's a custom field called SLA status. I'll send you the field name.
- Hamza AkhtarPerfect. So two more weeks and you're live. Last thing, do you want to run a small pilot with one team, or go company-wide on day one?
- Monique FairleyMerchant success only, please. I don't want to overload everyone.
- Hamza AkhtarSmart. We'll go live with merchant success and finance, and Amara will train your teams in week seven. Anything else?
- Javier OrtizThat's it for me.
- Monique FairleySame. Thanks, Hamza.
- Hamza AkhtarThanks both. Speak soon.
