Workflow Automation
The workflow automation feature allows an administrator to customize the agent environment and
how the user applications interact with that environment. Workflow automation enables data
processing actions to be scheduled based on telephony events (for example, popping data into a
third-party application on the answer event and sending email on the dropped event). Workflow
automation interfaces with applications written for Microsoft Windows browsers and terminal
emulators. Some customizations can be as simple as using keystroke macros for screen pops.
