Business Properties

Business Properties are set by media servers, so it is safe to change these properties only if they are not used by any media server in your solution.

Business Properties are stored in two ways. The two properties listed in the following table are stored as independent fields, so you can use them on the Condition and Order tabs of Views in Business Processes.

This table lists the following about system properties:

• Property name as it appears in protocol messages
• Field name in the interactions table, if the property is stored as an independent field
• Data type
• Short description

Business Properties Stored as Independent Fields

Name	Name In Interactions Table	Type	Description
ServiceObjective	service_objective	Integer	Time objective for servicing the interaction. The contact center may define a service objective for each combination of customer segment, service type, and media type.
Priority	priority	Integer	Indicates whether e-mail should receive special processing

All other Business Properties, listed in the following table, are stored in the flexible_properties field. To use them on the Condition, Order, or Segmentation tabs of Views in Business Processes, you must create Custom Properties that correspond to them.
