Interactions Between Call Vectoring/EAS and

BCMS/CMS

With this discussion in mind, let’s take a look at the following table to see how R3 CMS and BCMS interpret split flows for the G1/G3 versions of the DEFINITY switch:

Table F-2. R3 CMS and BCMS Standards for Interpreting Split

Flows (in G1/G3)

Interpretation

Inflow

R3 CMS

Calls answered by a split other

 

 

than a primary split.

 

BCMS

(Same as for R3 CMS.)

 

 

 

Outflow

R3 CMS

Calls that are dequeued from a

 

 

primary split via a route-toor

 

 

messaging split command, or by

 

 

being answered by an agent in

 

 

another split to which the call is

 

 

also queued.

 

BCMS

(Same as for R3 CMS.)

 

 

 

Dequeue

R3 CMS

Calls that are dequeued from

 

 

and not answered by any split

 

 

other than the primary split in a

 

 

VDN.

 

BCMS

(Not tracked.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When a call is not answered [due to a(n) outflow, abandon, busy, or disconnect], the call’s disposition is tracked for the primary split. On R3 CMS, the other splits to which the call is queued track a dequeue when the call outflows, abandons, is given busy treatment, or is disconnected.

If the primary split in a VDN is unmeasured, a(n) outflow, abandon, busy, or disconnect is not tracked for the call. Also, an answer is not tracked if the call is answered by an agent in the primary split.

R2 CMS Standards

When multiple split queuing is involved, a call can look like two or three separate calls to R2 CMS. As a result, if a call is queued to multiple splits and is then answered by an agent in one of these splits, an inflow is not tracked in R2 CMS. However, if a call is requeued to one or more splits (via a route to command, for example), an inflow is tracked only in the first split to which the call requeues.
