Service Objective

Service Objective

This section includes the following topics:

●Service Objective (sec): field on page 117

●Dynamic Queue Position on page 117

Service Objective (sec): field

The Service Objective (sec): field is available on the Hunt Group form. Service objective targets are entered in this field, which leaves the Acceptable Service Level(sec): field free for showing service level measurements through BCMS or VuStats. See Administering Service Objective on page 98 for details about using this field.

Dynamic Queue Position

The Dynamic Queue Position feature allows you to set service objectives for various VDNs and to queue calls for those VDNs to a single skill.

Note:

For best results, do not use Dynamic Queue Position with Multiple Priority

Queuing, which overrides the feature.
