Short answer
Write the date, call details, main topics, next date, tasks, and anything you need to confirm from official papers.
Capture call basics
Write the date, time, phone number or platform, and who was present if you know.
This helps place the note later.
List topics and tasks
Write the main topics in short bullets.
Then write any next steps or dates you heard.
Separate confirmed from unsure
Mark anything you need to confirm with official papers.
Do not treat uncertain notes like final instructions.
