Call Vectoring
■
■Automatic Available hunt group allows CONVERSANT Voice Information System or other “nonhuman” agent positions to be automatically staffed and made available.
■Each agent can be logged into as many as four hunt groups at a time.
■Malicious Call Trace allows you to designate stations that can trace emer- gency or threatening calls. When an agent receives a malicious call, the agent presses the Malicious Call Trace button. The system gathers trace information and connects a voice recorder to the call. All equipment used to complete the call is held up (the call cannot be disconnected) until the feature is deactivated.
■Redirection on No Answer allows an unanswered, ringing call to be redi- rected to an ACD queue or to a Vector Directory Number (see below) after an administered interval. The agent position will also be taken out of ser- vice.
■VuStats provides agents and supervisors with call management informa- tion on their telephone displays. This customized information can include how many calls an agent has taken and how many agents are on break, for example.
■Station Hunting allows calls to be routed first to the called extension, then according to a linear, circular, or modified circular sequence of extensions. The circular sequences work to distribute calls equitably, ensuring that there are no overworked “first” extensions in a hunt group.
Call Vectoring
Call Vectoring is a versatile method of routing incoming calls that can be com- bined with Automatic Call Distribution for maximum benefit and call center effi- ciency. A call vector is a series of
Vector commands may direct calls to
With combinations of different vector commands, incoming callers can be treated differently depending on the time or day of the call, the expected wait time, the importance of the call, or other criteria. DEFINITY ECS can route incoming callers to up to 512 different vectors. Each vector can have up to 32 commands. DEFIN- ITY ECS also allows vectors to be linked via the “Go to Vector” command.
