–
Avoid having agents transfer calls directly to other agent stations or agent IDs.
Instead, use post routing capabilities to have Unified ICM provide treatment and
queuing for transferred calls.
–
Avoid handling Redirection on No Answer (RONA) situations on the ACD. Instead
use post routing capabilities to have the RONA calls routed by the Unified ICM.
4. Plan for Call Type Reporting. This includes:
–
Configure a separate call type for each type of treatment offered. For example: Create
a separate call type for treating Support calls and Sales calls across all ACDs in your
call centers.
–
If you want to separate Information Gathering VRU metrics from queue metrics,
configure a separate call type for queuing.
–
Configure a separate call type associated with Redirection on No Answer situations.
This enables you to direct calls that Ring No Answer to a routing script designed for
this situation. This also enables you to use Call Type reports to report on this
Redirection on No Answer and to see how calls that redirect on no answer are
eventually handled.
–
Configure a separate call type associated with call transfers. This enables you to
direct the transfer to a different routing script.
5. Create a custom formula using skill group metrics for site selection based on expected
delay. This is required as the predefined MED (Minimum Expected Delay) calculation
provided by the Unified ICM scripts are not applicable for Agent Level Routing
configurations.
6. Configure Enterprise Skill Groups for Enterprise Skill Group reporting. Avoid grouping
skill groups from the same peripheral into an Enterprise Skill Group.
A typical ICM script used to route calls in this deployment is shown below.
In this example:
•
The enterprise that has two sites (Boston and New York) each running a call center.
•
A Call Type is defined that is associated with the routing script. This Call Type is used to
define the treatment provided by the call centers.
•
The call treatment to handle “Support” calls is provided by the Unified ICM software through
the call type and script association.
•
The call center at each site has agents who are skilled to handle calls for either “Laptop
Support” or “Server Support”. These are configured as Skill Groups in the ICM.
The Boston call center has an Avaya ACD (peripheral) connected with an ARS PG. The New
York call center has an Aspect ACD (peripheral) connected with an ACD PG.
•
Skill Groups are configured for each peripheral in the ICM.
