In addition to legacy DAA call handling, DAR provides a powerful and flexible set of script functions which allows refined selection and control of calls to be directed to an individual agent. This release introduces the following new Direct Agent Routing (DAR) objects and enhancements:
GetValue is extended to be able to capture an agent’s assigned DAA number. The caller is prompted to input a valid DAA number which is then validated.
Set Agent finds agents based on:
Channel linked to Direct-In-Dial (DID) number
Look up Local CRM for case created by, case last worked by, and case assigned to
Set a fix agent selection
Transfer to Agent directs a call to an agent. It can be used in conjunction with Set Agent to find an agent or by itself. This supports separate logic as why a call may not reach the target agent depending on the agent’s real-time state.
Transfer to Agent Voicemail transfers call to an agent’s voicemail typically if Transfer to Agent is not successful.
