Using secondary channel information to provide for gateway recording
First Claim
1. A method for centrally recording voice transactions and correlated business information in a phone system for a call center, the method comprising:
- communicating calls to/from the call center using a gateway,routing the calls to/from at least one communication device using a private branch exchange (PBX) connected to the gateway via an SIP trunk, the PBX also connected to at least one communication device;
intercepting, from the calls communicated on the SIP trunk, voice transactions and SIP signaling information;
receiving interaction information from the communication devices, wherein the interaction information from a particular communication device corresponds to a user'"'"'s interaction with the particular communication device;
recording the voice transactions on a recorder;
receiving, at the recorder, business information;
correlating the recorded voice transactions with the business information using the received interaction information.

Abstract
Systems and methods for using secondary communication channel information, such as RTCP information to facilitate correlating business information to allow gateway recording. Using information in this secondary communication channel the recording system can correlate the business metadata either directly (e.g., using a phone extension) or through one or more indirect operations (e.g., a call ID-to-universal call id-to-phone extension). Additionally, information in the primary communication channel may be used to perform an indirect operation to correlate auxiliary business information (e.g., using the CALLID or UCID in SIP signaling to resolve the agent'"'"'s phone extension and thereby access auxiliary business information.)

12. A system for recording voice transactions and correlated business information from a phone system for a call center, the system comprising:
-
a gateway that communicates calls to/from the call center, wherein the gateway; intercepts voice transactions and SIP signaling information from the calls, and receives interaction information from communication devices communicatively coupled to the gateway, wherein the interaction information from a particular communication device corresponds to a user'"'"'s interaction with the particular communication device; and a recorder that; receives the voice transactions, the interaction information, and business information, records the voice transactions, and correlates the recorded voice transaction with the business information using the received interaction information. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15)
