Let’s practice! Now that you’ve learned how to use Standard Metrics, try this exercise in your sandbox Vault CRM instance.
Challenge - Restrict Call Channel Options
Let’s say the compliance leader for your organization asks you to ensure users cannot record calls for the Chat and Text or Other channels. You'll need to restrict these channels from the call report.
To restrict call channel options:
- Navigate to Business Admin > Objects > Veeva Settings.
- Enter a double semicolon delimited list of the restricted options, without spaces, in the restricted_call_channels__v Veeva Setting. The list must start and end with a set of double semicolons. For example: ;;other__v;;message__v;;

Users can't select the Chat or Text and Other channels from the call report. You've made call reporting easier for end users and ensured call report channels are compliant with company policies.
