    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for servicing a transaction in a contact center. When an instant message communication associated with a transaction is suspended prematurely, special treatment may be provided to the transaction initiator. The special treatment includes: (a) maintaining the assigned service priority for the transaction for assignment to a subsequent communication; (b) scheduling a subsequent outbound instant message to an external endpoint associated with the transaction initiator; (c) assigning to the transaction initiator a favored service priority when the subsequent inbound instant message is received by the contact center; and (d) maintaining previously selected item(s) in memory and providing the item(s) to the transaction initiator in a subsequent communication.

    Abstract: A database schema architecture and operators therefor is disclosed for storing data providing information about membership of items in one or more groups, wherein when such a group is a simulated group, access to group item data related to activities of the group items prior to creation of the simulated group is provided. When such a group is an actual group, access to group item data related to activities of the group items prior to creation of the group is constrained such that group entities have database Type 2 behavior. The architecture provides a common schema for both actual and simulated groups. The architecture provides the ability to create simulated or hypothesized groups of agents in a contact center, wherein the groups can be evaluated using agents' past performance. Such groups are represented by the same schemas as actual groups, and the data entities for the actual groups exhibit Type 2 database behavior.

    Abstract: An automated transaction distribution system assigns an incoming transaction (call, text chat, email, fax, etc.) to an agent who is selected to handle the transaction. If the best agent to select is not available because he or she is handling another transaction, taking a break, in a meeting, or otherwise unavailable, the incoming transaction may still be assigned if the selected agent is expected to become available within an acceptable time period for that type of transaction.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for supporting the monitoring and control of an automatic call distribution system are provided. In particular, a ranked list of candidate agents that can be assigned to handle contacts for a selected queue associated with an automatic call distribution system is presented to a supervisor. The supervisor can make agent assignments from the ranked list at the discretion of the supervisor. The assignment or reassignment can be effected by the supervisor through control inputs entered through the user interface. These control inputs can include reconfiguring agent and/or queue attributes. In addition, assignments can be effected through communications to agents made by the supervisor that are initiated through the user interface.

    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for servicing a transaction in a contact center. When a communication associated with a transaction is terminated prematurely, special treatment may be provided to the transaction initiator. The special treatment includes: (a) maintaining, relative to other transactions, the assigned service priority for the transaction while the communication is disconnected and assigning the assigned service priority to a subsequent inbound communication from the transaction initiator; (b) scheduling a subsequent outbound communication to an external endpoint associated with the transaction initiator; (c) assigning to the transaction initiator a favored service priority when the subsequent inbound communication is received by the contact center; and (d) when, during the first communication, the transaction initiator selected at least one item as part of an electronic order and the first communication was terminated before the electronic order was completed, maintaining the item(s) in memory and providing the item(s) to the transaction initiator when the transaction initiator makes a further communication with the contact center.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for automatically implementing contact center administration updates based on acceptance of a broadcast request are provided. In particular, a request can be broadcast to a target audience. Acceptance of the request by members of the target audience automatically implements changes defined in connection with the request for accepting agents. The broadcast request can be recalled under certain conditions. In addition, the action or actions implemented in response to the acceptance of the request can be undone under various conditions.
