Applying Xima Contact Center Licenses to Agents

In order to track and apply Xima CCaaS features to agents, they will need to be licensed accordingly. This article covers how to apply available licenses to the agents.

Xima Contact Center licenses may be applied to users on most Unified Communications (UC) system using WebRTC (an embedded softphone in the Xima Agent Client). They do not need to exist in the UC system and must be built manually in Xima CCaaS. Refer to the Agent Licensing in Xima CCaaS section below.

Xima Contact Center licenses may also be applied to existing agents who are using the following UC system:

  • Avaya Cloud Office
  • Ring Central
  • Netsapiens
  • Metaswitch
    These agents can be pulled from the UC directory and would be licensed using the Phone User Licensing in Xima CCaaS section of this article.

Best Practice for Extension Assignment

It is best to assign WebRTC agents to their own extension range that is separate from any existing extensions on the UC platform. For example, if agents on you UC system are assigned in the 2000-2999 range and groups are in the 3000-3999 range, consider setting up Xima WebRTC agents in the 4000-4999 range.

  1. Select "Save" in the Agent Profile window
  2. Select the appropriate license button for the new agent. This is done by checking the corresponding boxes.
