Answer an Incoming Interaction
These instructions assume that you are answering an interaction in My Interactions.
The CIC client can notify you of incoming interactions by:
-
Ringing your telephone (if your CIC administrator has configured calls to ring on your desktop telephone).
-
Emitting a ring through your computer’s speakers.
-
Displaying a Desktop Alert.
-
Automatically selecting an interaction.
Note: If your user information in Interaction Administrator is configured to Auto-Answer ACD Interactions or Auto-Answer non-ACD Interactions, incoming interactions can be automatically picked up. Another Interaction Administrator configuration option can enable or disable Auto-Answer for incoming calls on a SIP station. When Auto-Answer is correctly configured, you are automatically connected to incoming interactions. Popup blockers can prevent auto-answer email windows from opening. If you want to use the Auto-Answer feature, you may need to configure your browser or popup blocker software to allow popup windows in the CIC client.
To pick up your call:
-
If you are not connected to another call, do one of the following:

-

-

Result: This action connects you to the call and places on hold any other calls to which you are connected.
