<p class="MsoNormal">In our environment, many of our phones hunt and forward to
our corporate contact center. In
addition, many of those some users’ voice mail boxes use this contact center as
their revert DN (dial zero to reach a live body). I believe this is causing some unintended abnormalities
in the contact center reports.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The situation works like this: When a call enters the contact center and is
answered by an agent, the call is considered “handled”. The caller tells the agent they want to speak
to Mr. X. The agent calls Mr. X and his
phone is forwarded back to the contact center where it re-enters the
queue. The agent, realizing that the
call is returning to the queue cancels the transfer, thus causing the queue to
report an abandoned call. This same
scenario plays out with the revert DN from voice mail over and over again all day long. </p></blockquote><div><br></div><div>What about having the agent do a warm transfer, so that the agent hears the voicemail greeting instead of the caller. The caller can then be asked if he would like to leave voicemail for Mr, X. If they want to leave a message, the agent can re-transfer them to Mr. X's voicemail.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Would mostly stop the endless loop scenario. Are any presence tools in place so the agents know Mr. X's status before attempting transfer? </div><div><br></div><div> <a href="https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-voip" target="_blank">-- </a></div>
