Hi Ashish
Great post, I have a question though. Can you tell me what data are stored and where the data is stored, does the callers name and the agent's name get stored, and does the duration of the call get stored, and if the are stored where are they stored in a database or in a log file.
Please help

Hi Tjikuena

• ANI – Automatic Network Identification – more often known as Caller Id. Identifies for the receiver the telephone number of the caller.
• DNIS – Dialed Number Identification Service – Identifies for the receiver what telephone number was dialed by the caller.
For this please navigate to

1. Site map>Administration – Communications>ANI Values
2. Site map>Administration – Communications>DNIS Values

ANI holds the info about Phone number, phone status, call center id, updated, created by, created, phone extension, Buscomp Name(Contact),Buscomp Field(ex:work phone).

DNIS Holds the info about Call Center ID, phone country code, message etc.,

Hope this helps!!

Thanks
