There are two important things you want to know when a call is logged: (1) what happened during the call and (2) the outcome of the conversation. SalesLoft uses the Disposition and Sentiment fields to specify that exact information.
Most of your team-wide Disposition and Sentiment management will take place in the Dispositions & Sentiments tab located under the Communications section of your Admin Settings.
In this article, you will learn how to set and manage your team's call Disposition and Sentiments, including
- Permission Settings for Disposition and Sentiments
- Require Dispositions and Sentiments to be Logged
- Standard Dispositions and Sentiments
- Add a New Disposition or Sentiment
- Delete a Disposition or Sentiment

Permission Settings for Disposition and Sentiments
All teams start with the standard Dispositions and Sentiments. Roles with the Dispositions & Sentiments permission can edit or create Dispositions and Sentiments.
The SalesLoft Admin Role has the Disposition and Sentiments permission enabled by default.
Require Dispositions and Sentiments to Be Logged
Dispositions and Sentiments are not required for users by default, which means they can be skipped (or easily forgotten). But failing to log these fields prevents you from gathering insights into your team’s call behavior, which can negatively impact call performances.
So, admins can make Dispositions, Sentiments, or both required on a call step or one-off call. Once call Dispositions and/or Sentiments are required, we will indicate for your users to set the field during call step or one-off call.
Things to Note: When running a call step within a cadence, Dispositions and Sentiments are only required when someone is logging a call or "logging & completing. The "complete only" button will not require these fields since it does not log a call.
To require your users to log Dispositions and/or Sentiments on a call, follow these steps:
- From your Team Settings, go to the Dispositions & Sentiments tab.
- Choose the tab for Dispositions or Sentiments.
- Click the checkbox to require the field be logged.
Standard Dispositions and Sentiments
SalesLoft provides standard Dispositions and Sentiments when you start with your SalesLoft account. These Dispositions and Sentiments are based on the most common outcomes that occur during sales calls.
The standard Dispositions and Sentiments contribute to SalesLoft's call analytics. The call analytics help to see whether or not your team is having positive conversations based off of certain Sentiments.
Things to Note: If you delete a standard Disposition or Sentiment from SalesLoft, and add a Disposition or Sentiment with the same/similar name at a later time, those logs will NOT populate to the Call Disposition and Call Sentiment pie charts in the SalesLoft Analytics.
The standard Dispositions include:
- Connected (positive conversation)
- Busy
- Rejected
- Voicemail
- No Answer
- Not in Service
- Wrong Number
The standard Sentiments include:
- Account - Bad Fit
- Contact - Bad Fit
- Existing Opp
- Customer
- Reassigned to Partner
- Demo Scheduled (positive conversation)

Add a Disposition or Sentiment
Your Dispositions and Sentiments need to fit your business process. So, SalesLoft provides the ability to delete and create custom Disposition(s) and Sentiment(s).
To add a new Disposition or Sentiment, follow these steps:
- From your Team Settings, go to the Dispositions and Sentiments tab.
- Select Dispositions or Sentiments at the top of the page.
- Click the + Add button at the top of the list of dispositions or sentiments.
- Type the name of your new disposition or sentiment.
- Hit Save.
Delete a Disposition or Sentiment
To delete a Disposition or Sentiment:
- From your Team Settings, go to the Dispositions and Sentiments tab.
- Select Dispositions or Sentiments at the top of the page.
- Find the label you would like to remove. Hit the red Delete button to the right of the name.
- A warning message will pop up to be sure you want to delete the item. Select Delete.
As a safety feature, you cannot delete the last remaining Disposition or Sentiment on either page, and the delete button will disappear when only one remains.
