Chapter 9 Intelligent Overflow Routing 119

Example 5

In this example, calls to the call center go to skillset 1, which is the company’s help line. If the call is not answered by an agent within 2 minutes and 30 seconds and if there are no agents logged on to skillset 1, the call overflows to skillset 2, which is the service department. If the call is not answered within an additional two minutes, the call transfers to the skillset mailbox where the caller can leave a message.

The Call Center Administrator creates two rules. In the first rule the Call Center Administrator:

selects the Day service mode

sets the timer to 2 minutes and 30 seconds

selects the Agents not logged in check box

selects Overflow to skillset as the action

selects skillset 2

In the second rule the Call Center Administrator:

selects the Day service mode

sets the timer to 4 minutes and 30 seconds

selects the Agents not logged in check box

selects the skillset mailbox as the action
