Ok this is a question for all you old Bell heads. Is there a way to do ASA threshold queuing by skill level for the same skill type. Example I

have main vector with skill 43 pri M that is the call center. We have backup agents that are skill 14 which is a time clock hunt-gr that doesn't

take calls. These backup agents are usually in a aux-code with skills 14 1, 43 10. When queues start stacking up call center tower calls these

agents directly and have them auto-in and take calls. They would like?? if call comes in after 45 seconds, check to see if backup agent can take

call. But have it constantly check, also these agents could not be available, so make sure it is not sending call to another queue. Here is what

I have come up with but they are still not statisfied. Running S8510 with full ESS, CM 5.2,CMS V15, and MM 5.2

If priority levels for 43 were removed and and backup agents in 14 were always auto-in this would work. Have tested different ways and when

check command is being performed without hold music customer hears silence until agents are available. So with a ASA of 45 seconds. I have the

call first roll through and hear 30 seconds of hold because it is advertisement for our company. After that I have it loop until someone is

available with 15 seconds of hold music thus meeting their 45 second ASA.

Now because of that 15 second loop between checks they say it will

skew their numbers. Plus they say it will be tedious having add up ASA statics from possibly two queues. I read about priority queuing, but is

there any way to queue calls in the same queue by skill level after certain time in queue threshold? I've heard from the C/C manager the old lucent stuff could do this. Here is a example of what they are thinking that I came up with...geeze.

01 wait-time 0 seconds hearing ringback
02 annoucement xxxx
03 go step x if time-of-day conditions
04 queue-to skill 43 pri m
05 goto step 10 if oldest-call-wait in skill 43 < 30
06 annoucement xxxx
07 wait-time 30 seconds hearing music
08 goto step 5 unconditionally
09 stop
10 route-to skill 43 SL 2 if oldest-call-wait < 30
11 route-to skill 43 SL 10 if oldest-call-wait < 200
12 stop

 

What I think you need is Avaya Business Advocate. Then you could skill the agents with the same skill and assign the skill as a reserve skill to the agents that normally would not take calls.

The agents with reserve skills will only be sent a call if certain call thresholds are not going to be met. Ask your Avaya Sales rep. or Business Partner about this feature.

Of course, it's not free and will cost you to implement into your system.
