Activating Telephony
If telephone integration is to be used in this system, you have to activate telephone support. This function displays the telephone functions on computers that are assigned to a SAPphone work center.
Choosing Work Center Identification
The SAPphone work center has to be created for the system to be able to recognize the connection between a computer and the correponding telephone. There are various options for identifying work centers:
- Identification by registry entry
This does not work if the telephony functions are called in a Web browser (ITS -work center).
- Identification by host name
- Mixed identification
- Registry and host name
- SAP GUI work centers are identified by registry entry, ITS work centers by host name.
- Registry and user
- SAP GUI work centers are identified by registry entry, ITS work centers by the user logged on.
- Registry and temporary identification
- SAP GUI work centers are identified by registry entry, ITS work centers have to be created again every time a new logon is executed on a computer.
