Yeah, I'm assuming that he might be thinking of hunt group logic and CCX as a 
way to add reporting into that, but the answer isn't as cut and dry

One thing to keep in mind about forcing an agent back to ready, if there is 
only one agent in a ready state and that agent misses a call, the system will 
continuously send the call to that agent.  The caller will NOT necessarily hear 
queue music/message oh hold and will never receiver any queue prompts with 
options to escape the queue (like zero out, leave vm, etc).  If that agent is 
away for 15 minutes, the caller will literally be ringing that one agents phone 
for the entire 15 minutes (assuming no other agents become available).

 Even if there are multiple agents in a ready state, if the call is routed to 
one agent who's not available to answer, you're subjecting the caller to a 
minimum 60s delay before the call will be routed to another available agent.

Supervisors have the ability to change agent states using their supervisor 
login.

Regarding the last question: If a supervisor logs into the appadmin page, they 
will be given a dialogue that will enable them to change skills and skill 
levels.



As for skills vs skill based routing, etc. it’s a question of how you want to 
engineer it. Not ready on no-answer is only good if you have an environment 
where agents have to manage their status. Remember that when they are on a call 
they will be in the offhook or talking state, so you will not have to worry 
about them not answering calls, as they will not be presented.

As for the tiering with SBR, the question is how you want to prioritize 
calling. I’m assuming this is a helpdesk style structure, in which case I can 
understand segmenting apart calls.

However, I could see it done with multiple groups, with L3 engineers also being 
in the L1/2 queues but at a lower skill level and so on, but that’s just 
another option.

In general I would want L1 engineers to be given calls unless they’re 
completely unavailable and then given to L2 and then L3. You could accomplish 
this by checking qty of ready state in the queue as opposed to using timers.

This would also make it so that clients would not have to wait up to 180 sec 
before voicemail, and would be reactive to the number of ready agents, only 
escalating to l3 if all the L1/2 engineers are exhausted.

Also, managing ready state should be a function of HR/Supervisory, auto-setting 
back to ready would just cause it so that you’d have longer queue times.

You should be able to change the ring timer per user for timeout, but the 
longer you set it out the longer your queue times will be as it will be 
presented to less users. If you set it to 60sec, then in your design it will 
only ring 1 L1, 1 L2, and 1 L3 over a period of 180 sec.

more expertise, that you use skills based routing.   The skills can be adjusted 
by the supervisor on the fly so that leaves it to the supervisor to have the 
right staff (engineer) in place to respond to the call.As for extending the 
timeout to being set to Not Ready I believe that can be adjusted on the 
Application Management section under agentTimeout.   Again very happy to be

efficient.

Subject: [cisco-voip] UCCX script related questions



hi All,





i have to configure CRS scripting on UCCX. following is the requirement.

  1.  broadcast ring to level 1 engineer for 60 sec, then call goes to queue 
and plays the option to exit the queue and leave voicemail.

   2. if exit option is not selected, it will broadcast ring level 2 
engineer for 60 sec, then call goes to queue and plays the option to exit the 
queue and leave voicemail.

   3. if exit option is not selected, it will broadcast ring level 3 
engineer for 60 sec, then call goes to queue and plays the option to exit the 
queue.

   4.if exit option is not selected, it will go through step 1, 2, 3 and 
then go to voicemail.





I have following queries

   1. after 3 rings, the agent (finesse) because not ready. is it possible 
to extend the timeout to 60 second. is it possible via "select resource" step?

2.because i have to go through step 1, 2, and 3. during first round 
when the state of the group is automatically changed to not ready (if nobody 
answers), is it possible to change the state automatically to ready after some 
time.

 3. Should i use resource group or skill based routing

 4. they also will be changing engineers from one level to another. is 
it

Regarding the last question: If a supervisor logs into the appadmin page, they 
will be given a dialogue that will enable them to change skills and skill 
levels.

As for skills vs skill based routing, etc. it's a question of how you want to 
engineer it. Not ready on no-answer is only good if you have an environment 
where agents have to manage their status. Remember that when they are on a call 
they will be in the offhook or talking state, so you will not have to worry 
about them not answering calls, as they will not be presented.
As for the tiering with SBR, the question is how you want to prioritize 
calling. I'm assuming this is a helpdesk style structure, in which case I can 
understand segmenting apart calls.
However, I could see it done with multiple groups, with L3 engineers also being 
in the L1/2 queues but at a lower skill level and so on, but that's just 
another option.
In general I would want L1 engineers to be given calls unless they're 
completely unavailable and then given to L2 and then L3. You could accomplish 
this by checking qty of ready state in the queue as opposed to using timers.
This would also make it so that clients would not have to wait up to 180 sec 
before voicemail, and would be reactive to the number of ready agents, only 
escalating to l3 if all the L1/2 engineers are exhausted.
Also, managing ready state should be a function of HR/Supervisory, auto-setting 
back to ready would just cause it so that you'd have longer queue times.
You should be able to change the ring timer per user for timeout, but the 
longer you set it out the longer your queue times will be as it will be 
presented to less users. If you set it to 60sec, then in your design it will 
only ring 1 L1, 1 L2, and 1 L3 over a period of 180 sec.
