User-interactive Email Event Data

The attributes received with an email event are determined by the workflow process for Siebel Email Response. The workflow can be extended to pass other attributes to Siebel Universal Queuing, which in turn passes them to the agent's communications toolbar as event attributes. The following attributes must be passed to the workflow process for submission to Siebel Universal Queueing:

  • LongDescription. The detailed description of the work item. This attribute is used in the Accept/Reject dialog box, where the descriptive information is displayed in order for the agent to decide whether to accept or reject the work item.
  • ShortDescription. The brief description of the work item. This attribute is used in the Work Items list in the communications toolbar. For example, after an agent accepts an email work item, the Work Items list uses text from this attribute to identify an email. For example, the attribute value might be a phrase like:

    Email from sender_name@company_name.com

  • ChannelAddress. This attribute stores applicable channel information for the work item that is intended to be displayed in the Channel Target Address field in the All Channel Items view (in the Administration - Communications screen). The email address the work item was sent to may be stored using an attribute value like:

    support@company_name.com

The fixed work item attributes received for any work item are described in Work Item Attributes.
