Inter•View is extraordinarily configurable. XML files are used to store all configuration settings and are easy to edit and read. Care has been made to group associated settings and name them in such a way to make them self-descriptive. 

PLEASE NOTE! Configuration settings are published for information purposes only. Unless express consent has been granted, changes to configuration settings must only be made by Omfax Systems/Touch-Base Ltd technicians or their representatives.

Multi-Company Configuration

The Host System needs merely to pass a company identifier code (via a URL parameter) when invoking Inter•View, and this tells Inter•View to run that session using settings from a company-specific XML configuration file. This allows a single Inter•View web-service installation to support any number of company configurations, each with their own database (if required). This supports both multi-company configurations and provides for testing/training instances.


Inter•View

Default installations of Inter•View have a single configuration file, this is typically called KF_config.xml (KF is replaced with company prefix in some Multi-company installations or for training/test instances) and is located in the KFLauncher shared folder.


The KF_config.xml configuration file schema is as follows. 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
+<Client>
+<Paths>
+<Database>
+<Email>
+<CRM>
-<Scripting>
  -<RD>
    +<Images>
    +<Asset>
    +<History>
    +<Exchange>
   </RD>
  -<FL>
    +<Images>
    +<Exchange>
   </FL>
 </Scripting>
</configuration>

Note: Some CDATA sections (<![CDATA[ setting value ]]>) may have been in the Keyfax XML configuration files.
These are used where a setting contains characters which are invalid in element values of an XML file (such as "<" or ">"). 
CDATA sections can only be used for XML element values, not attributes.

Scripting

The configuration/Scripting section of the main configuration file contains settings for Scripting. Although the configuration settings for the two 'Model' script types are detailed here (i.e. Repair Diagnostics and General Enquiries), it is possible to define any script type, each with its characteristics. 

<Scripting enableScriptTypeJumps="1">

•Tasks •@merge 

Set to "1" if tasks are to be merged within General Enquiries.

•@process 

Set to "1" if tasks are to be proccessed by users within General Enquiries before submission.

•@auto 

Since v4.0.1.9, @auto="1" is used to automatically process emails when @process="0". e.g. where emails are to be sent with no operator intervention. In this case all missing values are ignored and provided the from and to email addresses are available, the email is sent automatically.

•@showUnprocessedMergeFields 

Since v4.0.1.0, @showUnprocessedMergeFields is not used. Individual Databoxes can have Empty bookmarks allowed checked checked to prevent task processing insisting a value is entered. 
When tasks are displayed, controls whether un-merged fields are highlighted.
1 = display, 0 = hide

Note: If set at '1', then un-merged fields will require text to be updated before letters can be printed, or emails can be sent. 

A separate setting in the CRM Tasks configuration section controls how un-merged fields are handled within Contact Centre.

•@editMissingOptionalBookmarks (from v4.0.1.12) 

This controls the behaviour for optional databoxes (i.e. where Empty bookmarks allowed checked is checked) and no value is set. When @editMissingOptionalBookmarks="1" (default), optional databoxes with no value will be presented to the operator for review before the email or letter is considered complete. If @process="0" and ContactView is configured, the bookmark will be passed to the CRM for processing. 
When @editMissingOptionalBookmarks="0", all optional databoxes with no value will be ignored.

•@log 

Provides the ability to create task history against a caller which can be accessed via Contact Centre (only).
1 = create task history, 0 = no history required (or Contact Centre not installed).

•@forceSendEmail 

Controls the behaviour of the 'Process Tasks' screen where Tasks are utilised following an enquiry. If set to '1', the advisor may not proceed until any incomplete bookmarks are resolved and the email is sent.

•RemoveUnusedBookmarks 

When a template is merged with data captured during a General Enquiry script, some orphaned Bookmarks (or Merge Fields) may remain in the letter or email body, preventing it from being printed correctly.
By setting a CSV list of Bookmarks (or Merge Fields), will instruct the template merge process to search for and remove orphaned bookmarks matching the list of values.

Note: This list should be empty if the @showUnprocessedMergeFields attribute is set at 1. •XSLfile 

A UNC path to the server folder/file location of the XSL transformation file used to list tasks to process on tasks process screen.

•WelcomeMessage 

This contains the HTML code for the message to be displayed to users on layer 1 (Q & A) of main frame at beginning.If this value begins with "FILE:" the remaining text is treated as a file path and is appended to the value in this node, then the contents of the file is returned.

•CompleteMessage 

This contains the HTML code for the message to be displayed to users on layer 1 (Q & A) of main frame at script completion.

Note: The application should close at script completion, but time lags from host HMS / CRM may cause delay, therefore the message should describe the application status to the user. •Policy •Folder 

The sub folder path (from the virtual root) which holds files defined in help links.

Note: If a help button is defined in messages, and the filename only is specified, it is assumed it will be in this folder. •Default 

The file to display in the policy layer at launch.

This value is only used if the default policy file is not supplied in the database field "inf_QAset.policy" for the current script set. Note: to view examples of Policy 'skins', click here.
