After the switchboard call is successful, the CTI middleware then continues to command the ACD to call the extension of the attendant terminal's telephone device.
- the subsequent The steps are the same as when the attendant terminal signs in to the call center by using the direct dialing number; in addition, the processing in the long pass mode is the same as that of the above-mentioned operator terminal telephone device number is a direct dialing number, and will not be described in detail here;
- the attendant terminal signs in to the call center with the extension number because the second call is required, there are two possible call failures when the call fails, the call to the switchboard fails or the caller's call is normal, the call extension fails, and the two call failures are processed and Attendant terminal with direct dialing number The same is true when you check in to the call center.
- the process of sending the response request from the CTI middleware to the operator terminal and the response response from the attendant terminal is to let the attendant terminal confirm that the user call can be handled normally, if the operator terminal Although the telephone equipment can be called, the attendant is handling other things and cannot answer the user's call. At this time, the attendant can return to the busy or unable to answer the call through the attendant terminal, and inform the CTI middleware that the user cannot temporarily accept the call. In this case, the CTI is in the middle.
- the device may refer to the method for handling the failure of the operator terminal telephone device, first disconnecting the call with the operator terminal telephone device, and then assigning the user call to the other operator terminal for processing. Therefore, various problems occurring to the operator terminal can be processed according to the processing method described in the embodiment of the present invention.
- the CTI middleware of the embodiment of the present invention accepts the check-in of the attendant terminal, and the operator terminal controls; when a user calls,
- the CTI middleware command ACD calls the telephone device of the attendant terminal and connects the caller to the user. After the user hangs up, the CTI middleware commands the ACD to hang up the telephone device of the attendant terminal, so as to realize the transparency of the attendant terminal to the ACD.
- the ACD does not need to understand the concept of the operator, only control the call connection and hang up, hand over the control originally carried out by the ACD operator terminal to the CTI middleware, and completely separate the control of the telephone device of the attendant terminal from the ACD.
- the number of the telephone equipment of the attendant terminal is independent of the ACD; therefore, the telephone equipment of the operator terminal can be checked into the call center using the telephone equipment in any public network connected to the ACD, thereby realizing the distributed deployment of the operator terminal in the public network.
- the operator terminal is directly controlled by the CTI middleware, it is convenient to flexibly formulate various operator terminal functions according to service requirements, such as different working modes, and to facilitate handling problems such as malfunction of the operator terminal telephone equipment that may occur, Improve the reliability of the attendant service.
- the present invention can be implemented by hardware, or can be implemented by means of software plus necessary general hardware platform, and the technical solution of the present invention. It can be embodied in the form of a software product that can be stored in a non-volatile storage medium (which can be a CD-ROM, a USB flash drive, a mobile hard disk, etc.), including a number of instructions for making a computer device (may It is a personal computer, a server, or a network device, etc.) that performs the methods described in various embodiments of the present invention.
- a non-volatile storage medium which can be a CD-ROM, a USB flash drive, a mobile hard disk, etc.

Abstract
L'invention concerne un procédé, un système et un dispositif permettant à une centrale d'appels de traiter des appels de clients. Un intergiciel CTI accepte la connexion d'une borne téléphonique et n'enregistre pas le numéro de téléphone de la borne dans l'ACD. Lorsqu'un client effectue un appel, l'intergiciel CTI demande à l'ADC d'appeler un dispositif à borne téléphonique concerné et établit une liaison entre le client et le téléphoniste. Après que le client à raccroché, le CTI demande à l'ACD de raccrocher le dispositif à borne téléphonique. Le dispositif qui commande les dispositifs à borne téléphonique constitue un intergiciel de l'ACD original et est totalement séparé de l'ACD. L'ACD et les dispositifs de bornes téléphoniques sont indépendants. Un dispositif à borne téléphonique peut se connecter à une centrale d'appel par l'intermédiaire de n'importe quel réseau public connecté à l'ACD. L'invention concerne également la configuration distribuée des bornes téléphoniques dans un réseau public.
