Abstract

The present disclosure provides a system, method, and computer-readable medium for accessing a feature version at an Internet Protocol (IP) phone. An Extensible Markup Language (XML) code is activated at the IP Phone. A feature selection selected at the IP Phone is associating to a version of the feature using the activated XML code, and the associated feature version is then performed.

Claims (31)

1 . A computer-readable medium containing a set of instructions operative to cause a processor to execute a method, the method comprising:

activating an Extensible Markup Language (XML) code at an IP Phone;

selecting a feature selection at the IP Phone;

associating the feature selection at the IP Phone to a version of the feature through the activated XML code; and

performing the associated feature version.

2 . The computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the feature is selected from one of a mid-call feature and a supervisor feature.

3 . The computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the XML code is activated based on a calling party.

4 . The computer-readable medium of claim 3 , wherein the calling party is a call center server.

5 . The computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the XML code is activated from an XML application running at a network device.

6 . The computer-readable medium of claim 5 , wherein the XML application converts information into a format displayable at the IP Phone.

7 . The computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein associating the feature selection further comprises directing a signal to a server providing the associated version of the feature.

8 . The computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein feature versions are provided at multiple servers.

9 . A method for accessing a feature version at an Internet Protocol (IP) phone, comprising:

activating an Extensible Markup Language (XML) code at the IP Phone;

selecting a feature selection at the IP Phone;

associating the feature selection at the IP Phone to a version of the feature through the activated XML code; and

performing the associated feature version.

10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the feature is selected from one of a mid-call feature and a supervisor feature.

11 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the XML code is activated based on a calling party.

12 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the calling party is a call center server.

13 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the XML code is activated from an XML application running at a network device.

14 . The method of claim 13 , wherein the XML application converts information into a format displayable at the IP Phone.

15 . The method of claim 9 , wherein associating the feature selection further comprises directing a signal to a server providing the associated version of the feature.

16 . The method of claim 9 , wherein feature versions are provided at multiple servers.

17 . A call center system, comprising:

a call center server for managing calls to the call center and call center features;

an Extensible Markup Language (XML) server linked to the call center server for converting call center features for XML-enabled devices at the call center; and

an IP phone linked to the call center server and to the XML server that associates a feature selected at the IP Phone to a call center feature using (XML) code.

18 . The system of claim 17 , wherein the XML code at the IP Phone is activated based on a calling party.

19 . The system of claim 18 , wherein the calling party is the call center server.

20 . The system of claim 17 , wherein associating the feature selection further comprises directing a signal to a server providing the associated feature.
