128 Chapter 10 Routing table administration

Fax Detection

Call Center can detect fax calls and route them to a skillset mailbox. If you want Call Center to detect incoming faxes, you must make your first routing table step:

a Greeting step

with Forced Play

without a transfer

with a greeting that is a minimum of 11 seconds long

Fax Detection applies only if a fax machine is attempting to transmit a fax at the start of a greeting. If a fax transmission starts several seconds after the start of a greeting, it is possible for the fax tone not to be detected.

If you do not set up the routing table to detect a fax call, some fax calls can be routed to agents, and some fax calls can be routed to the routing table’s skillset mailbox.

To enable a routing table to detect fax calls, change the first step.
