Abstract:
Methods and systems for supporting manual control of automatic call distribution systems are provided. In particular, an administrator can manipulate parameters associated with call center queues and/or call center agents in order to improve the performance of an in-trouble queue. The changes are reversed after a predetermined period of time has elapsed, and/or after the previously in-trouble queue has returned to a healthy state.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for supporting the remote monitoring and control of automatic call distribution systems are provided. In particular, an application for execution on a mobile device is provided. The application presents ACD system status information to a supervisor of the ACD system. The application additionally accepts control input from the supervisor, and can pass that control input to the ACD system server for action.
