TPx Support Center

You use the General tab of the Call Center Settings page to configure miscellaneous settings that improve the usability of Call Center.

The following subsections describe the settings that can be configured on this tab:

Account

You use this area to change your TPx password.

Call Center shares logon credentials with other TPx services. When you change your password in Call Center, remember to use this new password when accessing UCx or the UCx Web Portal.

To change your password:

1. Click the Change Password The section expands, allowing you to change your password.

2. Enter your current and new password and click Change Password.

Note that the Reset button does not reset your password. It only clears the input boxes.

Hoteling/Flexible Seating Host

This setting allows you to configure the Hoteling Host or Flexible Seating Host, which is required when you use Call Center from a hot desk or other shared device. This way, if you use the same Hoteling or Flexible Seating device each time, you do not need to enter this information every time you sign in to Call Center.

In the text box, enter the user name of the Hoteling Host or Flexible Seating Host that corresponds to the desk or device you are using.

Language

The language settings allow you to select the language of the Call Center user interface.

• The drop-down list lists the languages available in your edition of Call Center. To change the language, select a new language from the list.
• Synchronize language to my profile – This box, when checked, synchronizes the Call Center language with your TPx profile and ignores the language selection on this page.

Screen Pop

You can use screen pop settings to configure the URL that may be launched on incoming calls.

• Enter URL – This text box allows you to enter the URL address of the web page that Call Center opens using the default browser when you click the Web Pop URL button in the Call Notification pop-up window.
• Auto pop for incoming calls – When this option is checked, Call Center launches the Web Pop URL without your having to click on the Web Pop URL button in the Call Notification pop-up window for each incoming call.

The URL can point to any URL address, but typically points to a web application that parses optional call parameters and passes them to a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) application or other database.

There are a number of optional parameters that the client can pass to the browser. The following list summarizes these parameters.
