Once the calling list is ready, the user can begin calling leads.

still eligible for the custom queue logic
.
The first identified eligible lead identified in the calling list is called.
The lead detail loads.
Based on system settings, the following lead assignment logic occurs:

No action is required.
The lead will load and the user can edit/update the lead details as needed.
If the user is not assigned to the lead and Take is required in the Calling List settings:
The user will see a Take button which means the lead will not automatically be
assigned to the user. The user must click the Take button in the Calling List section to take the lead for the assignment. Until the user takes the lead, they
only have View Only rights to the lead detail.
This feature is a best practice for when a lead is called but no one answers or no contact is made. The user does not have to Take the lead and no assignment occurs.
If the user makes contact and engages with the lead, they can then take the lead, it will be assigned to them, and edit access to the lead detail will be granted.
