Tips & Tricks

  • When a script encounters an Interrupt event, the script processing that was occurring will be interrupted and jump to the appropriate branch condition.
  • Most events stand alone and can be placed in a script to be executed by another action or script that triggers it. However, the Interrupt event is processed in the flow of a script.
  • Typically, it is recommended placing the Interrupt immediately after the Begin action.
  • The Interrupt action is triggered by Dtmf events that may occur anywhere in the script (after the Interrupt) during the contact.
