Boost Phone Call Efficiency with 3CX Wrap-up Codes: Streamline, Classify, and Optimize
Looking to optimize your phone call productivity? Look no further than 3CX Wrap-up Codes. These handy tools allow you to easily classify and analyze the purpose or outcome of your phone calls in real-time. With just a simple selection from a pre-defined list of codes, you can accurately label each call according to its nature. Whether you are part of a support department or a sales team, these codes enable you to streamline your organization effectively.
When making or receiving a call, a convenient popup appears, empowering you to choose the most relevant code that aligns with the call’s objective. Support departments can utilize codes such as “Installation issue” or “Hardware issue” to accurately categorize their calls. On the other hand, sales departments may find it beneficial to classify calls as “follow-up” or “New leads” for efficient tracking.
By implementing wrap-up codes (also known as disposition codes), you gain the ability to effortlessly classify and monitor the purpose and outcome of each call. The process is simple: a popup emerges during your call, providing you with a range of pre-established codes to choose from. For instance, support departments can quickly tag calls with codes like “Installation issue” or “Hardware failure.” Meanwhile, sales teams can easily classify calls as “follow-up” or “lead.” This comprehensive tracking system allows you to gain valuable insights into your time allocation, empowering you to fine-tune your business processes.
Make the most of your valuable time by leveraging 3CX Wrap-up Codes. Seamlessly classify, track, and analyze your phone calls to optimize your workflow. Start enhancing your business efficiency today!
Agents can quickly categorize calls, save time on documentation, and provide better customer service through streamlined call management.
DATA-DRIVEN INSIGHTS
The system collects data for reporting and analytics, offering valuable insights into customer behavior, agent performance, and call trends.
CUSTOMIZATION AND INTEGRATION
Wrapup codes can be customized to fit specific organizational needs and integrate with other systems, enhancing data management and process efficiency.
CONSISTENCY AND COMPLIANCE
Agents maintain data consistency, while organizations ensure compliance with industry regulations by using standardized wrapup codes for call documentation.
IIS is needed as a web server to host and manage web-based applications and services.
.NET Framework 4.7.2 (Web Installer)
This framework provides essential components for running and developing applications.
VoIPTools Universal Updater
This component is necessary for updates, ensuring the application remains current and functional.
VoIPTools Relay Service
It is used for proper integration and functionality of the 3CX Wrapup Codes (Server) within the 3CX environment.
Microsoft SQL Server 2014 or above (Including the free SQL Express edition)
3CX requires Microsoft SQL Server 2014 or later for database management.
Static IP for VoIPTools and 3CX servers
This is to ensure proper two-way communication, both the 3CX server (Relay) and the VoIPTools server. Dynamically assigned IP addresses are not supported. Additionally, it is recommended to use HTTPS for secure communication, which requires a FQDN for SSL/TLS certificate validation between the VoIPTools server and the Relay.
Port number 7750 opened on your device
Port 7750 is a specific network port used by 3CX for communication purposes. Opening this port on the device’s firewall allows incoming and outgoing traffic to pass through, enabling the 3CX software to send and receive data over the network effectively.
NOTE:
You need a Static IP for both VoIPTools and 3CX servers to ensure proper two-way communication, both the 3CX server (Relay) and the VoIPTools server. Dynamically assigned IP addresses are not supported. Additionally, it is recommended to use HTTPS for secure communication, which requires a FQDN for SSL/TLS certificate validation between the VoIPTools server and the Relay.
NOTE:
When installing IIS, be sure to install Basic Authentication, .Net Extensibility, and ASP.Net 4.X

Click Next to continue with the installation.
Figure 8:Test Relay services
NOTE:
If the test was unsuccessful:
confirm you have the correct firewall port open (default TCP 8801) on the 3CX server and the firewall protecting the 3CX server.
confirm that you have entered the correct FQDN for the 3CX server.
confirm that 3CX Wrapup Codes and the Relay are using the same port and protocol.
When configuring the 3CX Wrapup Codes (Server), select an existing Microsoft SQL Server instance in your environment. The database server can be a remote SQL Server, or a local instance running on the VoIPTools server.
You can set up the SQL database using SQL Authentication or Windows Integrated Authentication.
If using the free SQL Express Edition, the default SQL Instance name is SQLExpress.
Figure 9: Configure Database – Server Field
NOTE:
If you want to use ‘SQL Authentication’, then install SQL Server in ‘Mixed‘ mode.
If SQL Server is installed on a server other than the server where 3CX Exporter is installed, you will need to configure SQL Server to allow remote connections.
Enter your credentials in the Username and Password fields.
To use Windows Integrated Authentication check the Trusted Connection (Windows integrated authentication) checkbox.
The VoIPTools installer will create a local Windows user name as “VoIPToys” and give you sufficient rights to this user to create/update the SQL database.
Figure 13: Trusted Connection Checkbox
In the Test SQL Connection section, click the Tool button to test the connection.
Click the Next button which gets enabled when the database connection is successful.
Figure 14: Trusted Connection Test Results Message Box
NOTE:
We encourage you to use SQL Authentication rather than Windows authentication. Many of our tools leverage a Call Flow Designer (CFD) application running on the 3CX. Frequently our CFD applications require access to a SQL database. If the 3CX server and the database server are not in an Active Directory domain, Windows authentication will fail. To use SQL authentication, your SQL Server must be configured to run in “Mixed Mode”. If you installed SQL Server with one of our tools, we configure SQL in “Mixed Mode”.
In the Ready to Install window, click Install to start the installation of the ‘3CX Wrapup Codes’.
