Configuring an EMAIL Routing

  1. From the Queue dropdown, select the Queue you wish to deliver the document to.
  2. Click OK to close the dialog and save your changes.

Configuring a FAX Routing

  1. To send the document to a Queue, select the Queue from the Queues dropdown.
  2. To send the document directly to an e-mail address, select the address from the e-mail address dropdown.
  3. To send the document directly to the e-mail address associated with an Extension, select the Extension from the Extension dropdown.
  4. Click OK to close the dialog and save your changes.

To edit an existing Document Routing

  • On the Configuration screen displayed above, double-click on the Document Routing you wish to edit.
    The Document Routing details will be displayed exactly as described above for creating a new Document Routing.
    View or make changes and click OK to close the dialog box.

Note: You can have many publicized Folders set to route to a single Queue, eg:  Support E-mails and Sales E-mails may all route to the Customer Services Queue 404.

Documents routed to a Queue are presented to Agents who are logged into the queue in the same way a normal phone call would be within the queuing environment.

When the agent within the queue is free, the document will deliver to them and the Accept/Decline Popup will appear.  If the agent Declines or does nothing for a period of time, the document will return to the queue and deliver to another agent who is logged in.

If the agent accepts the document, the document is then delivered to the agent's Inbox who should respond accordingly.

To ensure your agents can receive documents you must enable access in the Queue/Agents Tab, shown below.
