Note: If you are an EAS agent, your ACD supervisor may request or require you
to enter a Reason Code each time you change to the AUX work mode or when
you log out. (This feature is available with the DEFINITY ECS, Release 5, or
later. See “Reason Codes” in the Quick Reference Lists at the back of this guide,
where you or your supervisor can list the codes and their meaning.) For instance,
one number may be used when you leave for your lunch break; another Reason
Code number may be used when you need to attend a training session. Check
with your ACD supervisor to see if you need to enter a Reason Code, and, if so, to
obtain a list of the applicable numbers. Your supervisor may also have
programmed specific buttons on your voice terminal with appropriate Reason
Codes already programmed on them.
