Usage notes

The ANI may not match the value for the initial interaction into the enterprise. The system derives ANI from the first recorded interaction of the contact. For example if a first recorded interaction starts on a consult, than the consultation interaction’s ANI will be considered the value for the interaction. Other examples where the value derived may not match the value of the initial interaction into the enterprise are call park or automatic transfers.

Some CTI integrations (such as Cisco JTAPI), do not provide a specific ANI field. In these instances, called party information is used as a best alternative.
Some CTI integrations provide pre-routed/translated values or otherwise present manipulated values. The manipulated value is used if that is all that is available.
Some CTI integrations (such as Genesys and Cisco ICM) provide explicit ANI information, which is used explicitly, with no additional logic applied.
Each interaction’s value is stored separately within the interaction. Values are not overwritten with values from previous interactions.
Indexed searching is disabled when wildcards are used. In this usage, the search must be accompanied by additional criteria.

If you search by ANI, the search must be accompanied by more criteria.
