Planning for Transfer and Conference Reporting
If you are planning to allow agents to transfer and conference calls, follow these guidelines to
obtain accurate and useful data from transfers and conferences:
Configure the dialed numbers with associated route points for transfer and conference to
agents and skill groups.
Plan to create a separate script for transfers that use the dialed numbers you configured. In
the initial script, change the call type when the call is transferred to direct the call to the
transfer script. Having a separate script allows you to track data across call types and skill
groups, instead of the agent's default skill group.
Planning for Supervisor Assist and Emergency Assist Reporting
If you are planning to allow Supervisor Assist and Emergency Assist, follow these guidelines
to ensure that you are able to obtain accurate and useful data from these features:
Plan to configure skill groups for supervisors handling Supervisor Assist and Emergency
Assist requests. For example, you might configure one skill group for the primary and
secondary supervisors of each agent team. This way, you can direct requests to these skill
groups and report on Supervisor and Emergency Assist call activity for these skill groups.
Plan to create call types, and configure dialed numbers that map to the created call type, to
run scripts that direct the requests to the appropriate supervisor skill group. In the script, first
target the primary supervisor and then, if you have configured secondary supervisors, queue
to secondary supervisors.
Planning for Redirection on No Answer Reporting with IP-IVR
If you are implementing Redirection on No Answer and have deployed IP-IVR as the VRU,
follow these guidelines to obtain accurate and useful data from Redirection on No Answer
situations:
Decide how long a call is to ring before being redirected to a new agent or skill group. When
deciding this, consider how Redirection on No Answer calls are to affect the Service Level.
If you want want Redirection on No Answer calls to adversely affect the Service Level, the
