  Unified CCX Packaging
Real-Time Statistics. Agents have access to basic real-time statistics for the queues to which they 
are associated using the IP Phone Agent XML application.
Reason Codes. Agents can be configured to enter reason codes for not ready and logout using the 
IPPA XML application.
Basic CTI. IPPA allows for call data to be popped onto the IP Phone display upon call ringing.
Telephony Support. IP Phone Agent is supported on the 791x, 794x, 796x, and 797x modes of IP 
Phones. Also, the wireless 7920 phone is supported.
Hot Desking. Hot desking allows agents to log in using IPPA from any IP Phone registered with the 
same Cisco Unified CallManager cluster. This also allows multiple agents to use the same 
phone—but only one at a time. In order to hot desk, agents must first log into Cisco Unified 
CallManager using the Extension Mobility feature. Extension Mobility brings a user specific phone 
profile (including configured extensions for that user) to the phone being logged in from. After 
logging into Cisco Unified CallManager with Extension Mobility, agents can log into Unified CCX 
using IPPA.
Cisco Supervisor Desktop (CSD)
The Unified CCX Basic ACD functionality provides a separate supervisor desktop application (CSD). If 
a supervisor wishes to handle calls, then the supervisor uses both CAD and CSD. CSD and supervisors 
are not licensed separately. Supervisors are licensed the same as agents. If you need a call center with 
10 agents and 1 supervisor, then you should order 11 seats. Seats are licensed based on maximum 
simultaneous logins. 
The supervisor desktop provides the following features and options:
View / Change Agent State. Supervisor desktops allow supervisors to view the current state of all 
agents that are part of that supervisor’s team. The supervisor desktop also allows supervisors to 
change an agent’s state (ready, not ready, logout).
Real-Time Agent and Skill Statistics. Supervisors can view statistics for all agents and queues that 
are associated with their team. See the Cisco Supervisor Desktop User’s Guide for more details on 
statistics available through the supervisor desktop application.
Integrated Text Messaging. Supervisors can send text messages to one or more agents.
Marquee Messages. Supervisors can send a scrolling marquee (broadcast) message to all agents on 
their team.
Basic CTI Functionality
All Unified CCXpackages include basic CTI functionality. The basic CTI functionality provides a 
customizable enterprise data window that is “popped” on the agent desktop upon call ringing. Data 
within the enterprise data window includes ANI, dialed number, and any caller input (account number, 
order number, case number, reason for calling...), plus details on how long the caller interacted with the 
IVR, how long the caller waited in queue, and how long the caller spent with all other agents if this was 
a transferred call.
Advanced IVR Functionality
The Unified CCX Premium Package includes both basic and advanced IVR functionality. Cisco provides 
no charge licenses for two advanced IVR ports for every licensed Unified CCX Premium seat.
