URL 

If a caller enters AltiServ via the Internet using AltiGen’s AltiWeb 
software (Web Button) then this field will contain the URL address for 
the caller accessing the system. 

User Data 

1)  If a call comes in from the Web via AltiWeb, then this field MAY 

contain form data from the web page if you designed your web 
page to do so. 

2)  If a call is processed via auto-attendant, and information is collected 

and offered to an external application using the DDR function in 
auto-attendant, then the external application can populate this field 
with information about the call, collected or otherwise. 

3)  The structure of user data is an array or buffer of name-value pairs.  

You can have as many pairs as you wish but the total buffer is only 
128 bytes long.  A name-value pair is the your own  field name 
followed by the field value.  Each name-value pair is separated from 
others by an @ character.   

4)  User Data can be loaded into messages sent to AltiServ via 

AltiGen’s ActiveX control, AltiX. 

5)  User Data can be received within messages sent by AltiServ to an 

external application via the auto-attendant DDR step and received 
by an application using AltiGen’s ActiveX control, AltiX. 

6)  User data is preserved when calls are transferred between 

extensions and between extensions across multiple AltiServ 
systems. 

7)  User data is useful for screen pops and automated processing 

application. 

8)  Customers (you) need to employ a system integrator in order to 

implement the use of User Data. 

 

VM Box Extension 

The voice message mailbox is an extension number where calls are 
sent to leave messages.  VM box extensions are used for workgroups 
in call centers as well as the standard uses for individuals. 

VM Start Time 

The time a call enters the voice mail system to potentially record a 
message. 
 

WorkGroup 

The workgroup is an extension representing a collection of individual 
extensions, such that each of these individual extensions can service a 
call arriving at the workgroup extension number.  If none of these 
extensions is available at the time a call arrives, then the call is queued 
for this particular workgroup -- a workgroup queue.   In the call center 
sense, the workgroup is can be configured for longest available agent 
queuing. 

WorkGroup Number 

The extension number for a workgroup. 

Wrap-up Duration 

The amount of time an agent takes to handle transaction information on 
another system or on paper after handling a caller.  Once the caller 
disconnects, the agent's phone can be configured to be "unavailable" to 
the workgroup queue for a fixed or variable period of time even though 
the agent's extension is still signed onto the queue.  This allows the 
agent time to wrap things up.  The wrap-up time can be a fixed number 
of minutes after which the agent is forced back into taking calls, or it can 
be variable, controlled by the agent through Center 4.0 clients, where 
the agent 'releases' his phone for the next call.  The settings can be 
designed to allow agents to control the wrap-up time until a limit occurs 
(the fixed time).
