Need a little CCE nudge

[ezncool]

Well, just had CCE installed and have been playing a lot with it. IDS is working and configured. Logging in and out and taking calls for agents works well. I, however, have been playing with the wallboard and cant make it work 100%. I can see the data change from logout, on call and when I'm logged in it goes into Aux. The issue is when you go into auto-in or acw the agent state wont change. I tried modifying the configuration server parameters but no luck. If I restart the IDS v&p service and then launch the wallboard it will show the current state of the agent but it will be stuck on that state. can someone please give me little push.

There is a CCE 3.0.3 upgrade available that fixes a lot of known issues.

http://www.avayacontactcenterexpress.com/Public_CD_Images.htm

BTW – It says CD ISO , but it is a DVD.

Messy but here is a cut/paste of CCE 3.0.3 Release Notes or check the link:

http://support.avayaactivetelephony.com/Article.aspx?id=14188

(July 2008)

CCE 3.0.3 is an installable service pack release incorporating all updates since version 3.0. The purpose of this latest version is to continue with ongoing improvements to CCE without requiring engineers to run a multitude of updates post implementation.

Using the Upgrade and Migration document provided on the DVD, previous versions of CCE may be upgraded to 3.0.3. The upgrade from 3.0.2 to 3.0.3 is fairly straightforward – simply stop all the CCE 3.0.2 applications, then run the 3.0.3 installations over the top of the 3.0.2 environment, and finally run the database maintenance batch files before restarting applications and services.

Several usability enhancements have been made in CCE 3.03. Email handling is now better with the inclusion of templates and a HTML toolbar for managing text editing. Reporting has also been improved to include a number of statistical reports and allow for a wider range of input criteria. Plus, new outbound interactions such as email, IM, SMS and Preview Contact can now be created directly from the agent desktop.

Note: As was the case in CCE 3.0.2, MS SQL 2005 is the minimum requirement for CCE 3.0.3.

The following specific issues have been resolved in this release:
Product Issue Id Comment
Application Management Client 9350 Through Control Panel it was only possible to select the Error Log Level from the main options (1,2,4,8). It is now possible to enter continuous logging levels such 129.
Note that the continuous logging levels should be used for diagnostic purposes only and then returned to a normal logging level, otherwise new log files will continue to be created until all hard drive space is consumed.
ASContact Database Management Plug-in 10482 When adding a contact through CCE Desktop, not all field options were available, such as ‘Business Fax’. Where appropriate, fields such as Phone Number now have a drop down to select what type of number is being entered.
ASContact Database Management Plug-in 10227 Double clicking on a group to view individual contacts in CCE Control Panel gave an error message. It is now possible to double click a contact group in Control panel to see the contents of the group.
ASDialEnhancement Plug-in 8755 Invalid XML document created when using <ESC> in the UUI. <ESC> is no longer available as an enhanced character in UUI.
ASMediaStore database 10573 The performance of mediastores has been improved by enhancing the method of accessing workitem information from the database.
ASMediaStore database 10085 The preferred method of creating a CCE database is to use the CCE batch files so that a record of database version is contained in the ASSystem table. This table will now be populated if the sql scripts are run directly.
ASMediaStore database 10462 Remove duplicate call to InsertErrorLog. Errors are no longer entered twice in the error log table.
AutoText Plug-in 9369 Enhancement to AutoText to have a Default WorkCode applied if the Workitem is closed. It is now possible to define a default work code that will be applied if no other work code is selected.
AutoText Plug-in 10933 Ampersand unable to be used in CCE Desktop's Auto Text. It is now possible to use ampersand (&) in auto text.

Configuration Manager 6812 The Configuration Manager properties dialog is now larger, making administration easier.
Contact Center Express Desktop 10293 Outbound interactions such as Email, Preview Contact and IM are now possible from CCE Desktop.
Contact Center Express Desktop 9248 In some cases workitem notes for all interactions were not presented to an agent when another interaction was received. This has now been resolved.
Contact Center Express Desktop 5254 GUI Host (Desktop Applications) doesn't properly support multiple monitors. CCE Desktop now remembers the last load position and is able to start up in different monitor. (It will not default to the primary monitor).
When CCE Desktop is resized across multiple monitors, the next time it loads it will open nicely to the monitor where the CCE Desktop most covers and with the last size. It will not default to the primary monitor with the maximum size.
Control Panel 10523 SMMS doesn't save change when editing window in control panel is closed. Save and Close functionality is now improved.
Control Panel 9783 Contact Database plug-in could not open/maintain a Contact DB when server name contains a dash. Control panel is now able to manage databases with server names that contain a dash or hyphen (-).
Control Panel 11216 Where supervisors require access to CCE Control Panel to manage Preview Contact programs and interactions, it is now possible to disable the service control context menu so that they cannot accidentally stop or start services.
Control Panel 11192 Corrected miss spelt words in tool tips.
Control Panel 11090 It is now possible to save an email. A configuration item either enables or disables this functionality.
Control Panel 9372 Preview Contact administration now allows the Media Director to be selected from a list of available media directors. This will prevent spelling mistakes from being typed in.

Email Media Store Plug-ins 10770 A delay in email delivery after a server restart was caused by MS SQL generally being the last service to complete startup, stopping proper synchronization with email mediastore.
