Default Settings configuration

Advanced Queuing Default settings can be configured from Imagicle web portal, selecting Advanced Queuing ⇒ Default Settings.

This page, that is organized like a regular queue settings page, allows to define the default settings inherited in all the queues.

Changing a setting value in this page will impact on all queues that are inheriting such setting (that is, all the queue that do not override those settings).

Below a list of most important settings you can tweak, split by tab:

Queue setting

• Global Login/Logout number: this is a login/logout phone number that enable the agent to login/logout on all queues he is working for. This is useful if an agent is serving multiple queues, to switch his login/logout status on all queues simultaneously. Notice that this phone number must be reachable through a route in the Calling Platform.
• Delete data older than: This is the retention period (in days) to keep CDRs related to queued calls. Set this parameter to 0 to keep CDRs for an unlimited time.
• Maximum waiting time: Maximum waiting time you wish to keep the caller party waiting for first available agent. Set this parameter to 0 for unlimited waiting time (not suggested!)
• Behaviours tuning: Within this menu, you can find different overflow options for no available agents, no queue resources and maximum wait time reached. Each overflow option can be set to play a message and drop or play message and transfer to an internal or external phone number or extension.

Time Table

• Within this tab, you can configure a common time table for standard week days + holidays. Moreover, you can also decide to force all queues closed or open, and apply relevant behaviour for day time and night time service

Voice messages

• This tab allows to customize common voice prompts to be included in all your queues. Multiple voice prompts can be uploaded from this interface, as standard MP3 or WAV audio files. You can also set voice prompts as interruptable or enable queue position announcement at the chosen frequency.

Call Distribution

• These parameters are useful to tune the way Imagicle Advanced Queuing tries to engage operators to serve queued calls:
  • No answer timeout: to ring an operator for nn seconds before skipping to next one
  • Automatic logout agent: If enabled, agent is automatically logged out upon no answer
  • Max consultation calls per agent: This parameter dictates the number of calls that might be dispatched to each operator. Keep this value to 1, if you don't want to dispatch a call to a busy operator. A higher value can be useful for operators without Attendant Console, to show them additional waiting calls on IP Phone display.
  • After call - Wrap-up time: If you wish to give some relief to an operator who just served a call, you can set wrap-up time to a value in seconds. This is the interval where operator is not engaged by further queued calls, to allow admin tasks or CRM updates.
