3. Click ADD to add a new SIP account. Enter the values for the following properties in the
Properties window.
a. User Name and Display Name: User Name is the name displayed on the softphone. It can
be set to any character string, but Contactual recommends using the Agent’s OnDemand
Contact Center Login id as the User Name. For example, jdoe
Display Name may match the User Name.
b. Domain: Domain can be any name but Contactual recommends using your company’s
domain. Your company’s domain can be found in your email address. The domain is
everything to the right of the “@” sign.
For example, if your email address is jdoe@acme.com, your domain is acme.com.
Note: Your User Name combined with the Domain Name creates a unique SIP Phone URI.
This unique URI is used to register your eyeBeam with The OnDemand Contact Center. For
example, if your User Name is jdoe and Domain is acme.com, your SIP Phone URI in the
Agent profile should be jdoe@acme.com. Please note the value is case sensitive.
