OpenWorX: Business Attendant System (BAS)

NEC's Business Attendant System (BAS) is a powerful client/server PC-based tool for full-time
and part-time NEAX
client side application running on Windows 2000 or Windows XP operating system that
connects to the BAS server via the corporate LAN. The BAS server software is used for
®
NEAX 2000 IPS connectivity and runs on a Microsoft Windows 2000 Server or Windows 2003
Server.
With a dynamic interactive directory and an Open Application Interface (OAI) driven call queue,
the operators are able to process a high call volume with minimal effort and time expenditure in
today's sophisticated business environment. For example, an operator can answer an
incoming call from one of many queues; find out to whom the caller wishes to speak, begin
typing that name to select it in the directory, and once selected, hit the <Enter> key or click the
entry to transfer the call. Additionally the caller could be parked, put on hold, or sent to voice
mail. Several operators can monitor the same queues and share the same directory for call
operation.
