CONFIGURE DELAY SCREEN Consider these factors when choosing an Answer Delay value for a line group: l If you have toll lines (such as 800 lines), you begin paying for a call as soon as the line is answered by CMS. If calls are likely to be on hold before an agent is available, increasing the Answer Delay value decreases the time on hold, and, hence, the cost of the call. l You can increase the Answer Delay if you know callers will have to wait for an agent. Callers may be less likely to hang up if they...

Administering Call Flow Administering call flow includes the following tasks: l Assigning a main split and a secondary split (optional) for each line group l Turning intraflow on or off for a line group l Setting an Intraflow Threshold for each split Intraflow is the process of transferring calls from a main split’s queue to an available agent in the secondary split. A main split has primary responsibility for answering calls for a line group (or groups). A secondary split covers calls to a line group...

– There is an available agent in the secondary split. CALL FLOW SCREEN – The oldest call in the secondary split’s queue has not waited longer than the Intraflow Threshold for the secondary split. 5 If there is no agent available in the secondary split, the call stays in the main split’s queue. The call will be answered by the first available agent in either the main split or the secondary split (if the secondary split’s Intraflow Threshold is not exceeded by another call). To administer call flow, press...

[F3] Set Thresh (Set Intraflow Threshold) Press this function key to display the prompt that allows you to set the Intraflow Threshold for a split. This threshold sets the number of seconds the oldest call waits in a main split’s queue before becoming eligible for intraflow. You need reasonable thresholds for your main splits. For more information on choosing your thresholds, see “Administering Call Flow” earlier in this section. The initial setting is 30 seconds. Prompt: SET CALL FLOW THRESHOLD: Split #...

Clearing a Configuration Pressing [F5] (labeled Clear Config) on the Configuration screen displays the prompt that allows you to clear the contents of a shift configuration. You might want to do this if you have made several data entry errors and want to begin again instead of making changes. If you clear the contents of the configuration, the values on the Configuration screen return to their initial settings. Prompt: CLEAR CONFIG: This deletes contents of config. Clear Config?

Saving an Edited (Changed) Configuration When you build a new shift configuration or make changes in an existing one, the word (edited) appears on the Configuration List screen to the left of the configuration number. You can store the last edited configuration in a previously unused configuration or store it in place of another configuration. For example, you could edit configuration 1 (DAY in our example) and replace the original with the updated copy. If, on the other hand, you want to keep the...

Renaming a Shift Configuration To name or rename a configuration, press [F3] (labeled “Rename Config” ) on the Configuration List screen. Configuration names can contain up to 10 letters, numbers, or special characters. Spaces are not allowed, so you may want to use hyphens or underlines instead.
