Transferred and 
Conferenced Calls
1
With Personal Call Tracking, 
CentreVu CMS tracks transferred and 
conferenced calls as follows:
Transferred and conferenced calls are tracked as held calls while 
the call(s) wait to be transferred or added to a conference.
When an agent ends a conference call, the agent returns to the call 
state prior to setting up the conference.
If an agent is talking, places the ACD call on hold to transfer the call, 
and then completes the transfer, the agent goes to the AVAIL state 
(Auto-In) or to the ACW state (Manual-In) following the transfer.
Transferred or conferenced unmeasured split, trunk group, or VDN 
calls are now tracked. Prior to Personal Call Tracking, these calls 
were not tracked.
Audio Difficulty
1
CentreVu CMS records the trunk associated with audio difficulty for 
personal calls if the trunk group is measured. Prior to Personal Call 
Tracking, audio difficulty was restricted to ACD calls. 
Direct Agent 
Calling (G3)
1
Direct agent calls are tracked separately from other ACD calls in the 
CentreVu CMS database tables. Since direct agent calls are not split/skill 
calls but are calls to a specific agent, most of the direct agent data are 
collected in the agent tables in items starting with DA_ or I_DA. Direct 
agent calls are counted as ACD calls in trunk, trunk group, VDN and 
vector tables. 
Direct Agent Data 
in Reports
1
Reports can be customized to include direct agent data. In the real-time 
split/skill table, the number of agents on direct agent calls and the 
number of agents in ACW associated with direct agent calls are 
collected, but they are subsets of the number of agents in the OTHER 
agent state; that is, they are doing work but not for the split/skill. Only the 
OTHER value appears on standard real-time reports. The number of 
direct agent calls queued and ringing appears on the Queue/Agent 
Summary report.
Switch-Specific 
Capabilities
1
For Generic 3 switches, a direct agent call can be initiated by an adjunct. 
For Generic 3 Version 2 and later Generic 3 switch releases with the EAS 
feature, a direct agent call can be initiated by dialing the agent’s login 
number or through the “route to number” vector command. The call is 
treated like an ACD call and is delivered to the agent before any split/skill 
ACD calls queue.
