Table 2: Customer Data and Instance Data
Instance
Customer
NICs and PGs; peripherals, trunk groups, peripheral targets,
skill targets; regions; announcements; application gateways.
Dialed numbers, labels, call types, scripts, scheduled
targets, and network VRU scripts.
Note: No special security is applied at the customer level. Any Admin Workstation user with
access to an instance can choose to view data for any or all customers in that instance. However,
you can set up WebView or Quick Edit users who have access to only the data for a specific
customer.
Customer Types
You can use the customer concept to support multiple independent organizations with a single
ICM instance rather than assigning a separate instance to each organization. However, customers
that share an instance have more limited capabilities than a customer using a full instance. The
following table summarizes the abilities of these two customer types.
Table 3: Customer Types
Shared Instance Customer
Full Instance Customer
Scheduled targets only
Monitored targets (skill groups, agents, and services) and
scheduled targets
Percent allocation routing and scheduled targets
routing only
Full routing capabilities based on Longest Available Agent,
Minimum Expected Delay, and so forth
No dedicated Peripheral Gateways
Dedicated Peripheral Gateways
Quick Edit or WebView access only
Admin Workstation, Quick Edit, and/or WebView access
Limited script modifications through Advanced
Services Terminal
Full configuration, scripting, and administration capabilities
Note that all configuration and scripting for a shared instance customer must be performed by
the service provider that manages the instance. The customers themselves can only perform
Quick Edits within a script.
Before You Install an ICM Component
Before you install ICM software, the computers must have the Microsoft Windows operating
system—including SNMP and (for Windows 2003) WMI—and, for some components, Microsoft
SQL Server database management software installed.
