Close Power Dialer Not Working or Stuck
Quick answer
A Close Power Dialer that stops usually has an empty or non-matching Smart View, or you are not rejoining the queue after editing. Use Continue Calling, Call Next Lead or Start from Scratch.
Most likely fix: Check the Smart View
How to fix it
Try these in order — the most common fix is first.
1. Check the Smart View
- Open the calling Smart View and confirm leads match the query
- Make sure leads are not being moved out by status changes

- Choose Continue Calling for uncalled leads
- Or Start from Scratch to dial everyone again
- Use Call Next Lead (Cmd/Ctrl Shift X) after editing
Did this fix it?3. Check plan and permissions
- Power Dialer needs Growth; Predictive Dialer needs Scale
- Predictive Dialer is not compatible with Lead Visibility; use a role without it
