Transfer

Transfer directs an existing call to an alternate phone number outside the CXone system. Transferred calls remain on the CXone telephony platform and the call progress continues to be monitored and recorded. On transfer, the call begins consuming two ports. However, once a call has been successfully transferred, it can no longer be controlled by CXone software components such as ACD, Personal Connection, or Studio.

Dependencies

• Transfer is the simplest method to transfer an incoming call. For more sophisticated transfer solutions, see Spawn, Placecall, and Link.
• If you plan to use Transfer heavily in your script, you must take into consideration the number of allocated ports.
• Transfer is not the same as the Blindxfer action, which does not use any ports, but also does not save any of the call details.

DialingError	Path taken if the phone network is unable to place the call for a technical reason.
