Expected Wait Time | Nortel Networks Call Center Telephone specification

42Chapter 5 Setting up skillsets

Expected Wait Time	Expected Wait Time parameters are:
	EWT sample: How many previous calls are used to calculate EWT. You
	can enter a number between 2 and 256 calls.
	EWT Increase Allowed: Enabled by default, which means that EWT is
	recalculated if it increases, and the appropriate EWT greeting is played. If
	not enabled, callers do not hear recalculated expected wait times if the wait
	time increases. Whether enabled or not, callers hear the appropriate EWT
	greeting if the wait time decreases.
	Initial Call Duration: The Initial Call Duration is used to compute expected
	wait time until sufficient call statistics are obtained. The average call
	duration is updated whenever a call is released from an agent. This can be
	a value between 00:01:00 and 24:00:00. The default is 00:03:00.

Service Mode	The service modes are: Auto, Day, Night, 24 Hour.
	The default is 24 hour operation.
	For more information about Service Mode see “Setting the Service Modes
	for skillsets” on page 148.

Note: Although you can set Activity Code and Expected Wait Time parameters though ≤·°‹, you must use CallPilot Manager to create Activity Codes and Expected Wait Time tables. For more information, refer to the Call Center Set Up and Operation Guide or CallPilot Manager online help.
