P
primary split
The first split in a VDN to which a call actually queues. Another split becomes the primary split if
the call leaves the VDN (via a

route-to VDN

command, for example), and the call is then queued
to another split; or, if the call leaves vector processing (via a

route-to <extension>

command, for
example), and the call queues to another split.
priority
The queuing level to which an incoming call is assigned and at which the call is processed.
Priorities are top, high, medium, and low.
QR
receiving switch
A switch within an LAI call setup that pr o c esses vector inflow. The switch makes the decision to
accept or deny an LAI call according to a number of conditions.
routing
A call vectoring method that allows an incoming call to be sent to a specific destination. For
example, a call can be queued to a split.
S
sending switch
A switch within an LAI call setup that pr o c esses vector outflow. The vector(s) in the sending
switch use the

goto

command to determine whether the call should be sent to the receiving
switch.
Sequential Flow
The type of vector control flow that is automatically passed fro m the current vector step to the step
that follows.
skill
An attribute that is assigned to an ACD Agent LoginID (agent skill) and is administered to calls on
a VDN basis (VDN skill).
skill hunt group
A hunt group for EAS which has the same attributes as a vector controlled split. EAS must b e
enabled.
split/skill
A group of agents organized to receive calls in an efficient and cost effective manner. Refers to
both ACD splits and hunt groups without ACD optioned.
