This function makes use of the Server script API function PBXScript.PreviousScripts to check if the call has been transferred by the given user (defined by his name) and PBXScript.OutputTrace to write trace information into the SwyxServer trace file.
Please note: this function makes use of obsolete functionality in the PBXScript.PreviousScripts collection which was replaced in SwyxWare v13.27 to identify users and groups, instead of users only. There is an updated version of this function available, IsRedirectedFromByNameEx, which makes use of the new functionality.
A usage example of this function could be the following:
Boss redirects all his calls to his secretary. The secretary redirects all her calls to the operator because she has to leave the office. So, when calling the boss directly one would end up at the operator.
For the operator it would be useful to know if this is such a "boss" call. So, all you have to do is to call this function with the name of the boss user and afterwards e.g. manipulate the text being shown in the SwyxIt! display.
If IsRedirectedFromByName("Mr. Boss") Then
PBXCall.CallingPartyName = "BOSS - " & PBXCall.CallingPartyName
End If
Another usage of this function can be found in the function IsRedirectedFromByNumber.
This function was initially posted into this forum topic.
