Accepting a call
Accept telephone calls by lifting the handset on your telephone. (When used for Offsite
Agent, Agent Desktop greys out the Accept button.)
Prerequisites
Attention: Depending on the capacity of your broadband connection and latency in
the PSTN network, it is possible that the Agent Desktop response to an incoming call
might not synchronize with the telephone ringing.
