Has anyone created a custom script that would include a variable to send out a faxed form to customers? From what I understand, business leads and/or customers would pull information from iSeries and if the customer wants, can receive a faxed form through a UCCX phone script. If you have, could you share the configuration. I have worked with quite a few scripts but have never included the ability to request a faxed document automatically. Any help would be great! Thank you...

Also, found out that we will use web services to access fax rpg through URL so I guess I would just need to point the script to particular URLs...anyone done something like this?

Tracy,
IPCX will be fetching the data from iSeries? What kind of Database is that? I hope you have premium version IPCX for the db integration?
11-22-2011 06:50 AM
The data would come from iSeries but the developers are going to make a
front-end web services page for faxing where I would point IPCX to by URL.
I'm not sure about the type of database but could find out. We are
running UCCX (Express v7.01)

is that UCCX 7.1 standard/enhanced/Premium? do we need a direct db integration with the Iseries db?
or is it just sending an http req to your webserver?
11-23-2011 11:15 AM
1. Premium version
2. and 3. It should be just an http request, no db integration should be
necessary.

"business leads and/or customers would pull information from iSeries" - how you want to get this info? is it via http req or pulling it from a Db?
I think, for sending the fax we will need to pull the info from somewhere (db ?) how you will get this info?
"Also, found out that we will use web services to access fax rpg through URL" - i Agree this that this can be done via http req to webserver
11-28-2011 05:54 AM
http request for the first question...once I am given the URL from
development, I will have more information on how this will be done.
Thanks! Have you done anything like this before?

Hello,
Here is what the call flow for the fax portion should look like:
"You have reached the Claims Department. This call may be monitored or
recorded for quality assurance."
"To request a claim form, press 1"
"Please enter your 10-digit fax number where you want the form to be
faxed, beginning with the area code."
Caller enters 10-digit fax number
"You entered xxx-xxx-xxxx. If this is correct, press 1. If you would
like to re-enter your 10 digit fax number, press 2. Or, press 8 to return
to the main menu.
Caller presses 1
UCCX calls out to URL web address for the claim form and dials out to the
entered fax number (would need to figure out how to know if the call needs
to be dialed as long distance, 7-digit or 10-digit). How to do outbound
calling???
"Your fax request has been processed. If you don't receive your fax
within one hour, please call us and speak with a customer support
representative. Press 8 to return to the main menu or if you've completed
your call, simply hang up."
What would my custom script look like? Any help would be wonderful!!!
Thanks!

I just found the feature called Outbound feature that would allow us to
use UCCX to make the outgoing fax calls and all the area codes and time
zones are already pre-populated within UCCX...does this seem like a viable
option along with the UCCX script

Now that I am looking about the viability of the Outbound dialing
feature...is there anyway to include in the script when the customer
enters their fax number to take that number and use the Outbound feature
to dial out to that customer no. Just in the preliminary reading, it
looks like there needs to be "contacts" added to the Campaign...could a
script be written to include that customer fax number (when entered into
the script by customer) be taken and added to a Campaign called "Claims"
for example...just a thought

I don't know if you ever got this done. UCCX doesn't have any built in rasterizer so you couldn't just configure an outbound call to magically fax the data. However, there are other ways. The easiest would be for you to use the send email step with attachment or email body containing the fax content. Send the email to a fax gateway like a Cisco router with offramp faxing enabled, or to a fax server like Xmedius. There are many other fax gateway options besides. These will rasterize the contents of your fax and then transmit to a voice gateway to get the call onto the PSTN.
