  • Name: Name of the service.
  • Call Center: The call center in which the service is organized.

Service Type

  • Service Type: Type of the service. This value determines the available options for ACD Mode and Call Direction. The associated cloud profile appears in parentheses, next to the name.

    • Basic (Auto): A blended multi-channel service that supports inbound and outbound interactions and contains the following features:
      • Outbound and inbound voice
      • Attended voice campaigns
      • Email and SMS campaigns
      • Two-way email, SMS, and chat communication
      • Click-enabled voice, email, and SMS (with the purchase of CRM)

        The Basic service runs through the portal's automated queuers and does not support the following features:

        • Preview All campaigns
        • HCI or 10DMT campaigns
        • Unattended voice campaigns
        • Whisper voice campaigns
    • HCI (HCI): A service in which an agent (that is, a clicker agent) manually launches a call.

      If a consumer answers the call, the call is routed to the closer agent, who speaks with the consumer. 

    • HTI (HTI): The Human Text Initiator (HTI) service enables agents (Clicker Agents) to manually launch text messages.

      • For assistance with an HTI configuration, contact the Account Team.
      • The HTI service enables agents other than Closer Agents to reply to SMS messages. Closer Agents are not required to launch the SMS messages.
    • Inbound: A service that receives and directs callers using a designated Interactive Voice Response (IVR). IB services can be configured to route to agent teams, to certain outbound services using service groups, to themselves using service routing, to voicemail boxes, a self-service IVR, or a combination of these.
    • Manual (Manual): A human-initiated service in which an agent must manually enter all ten digits of a telephone number on the keypad to launch a call. The same agent handles the call.
    • Preview All (Preview): A human-initiated service that presents the telephone number to an agent who can choose to either click the number to launch the call or skip the number. The same agent handles the call.

      International Number Support

      The platform now supports the E.164 format for the international outbound Preview dialing service and any other automated dialing service.

    • Quick Connect (Auto): An automated outbound service that immediately connects live answers with an available agent.
    • Unattended (Auto): An automated outbound service that immediately connects with an IVR application. Regardless of the responses provided, the called party cannot be connected to an agent. 
    • Whisper (Auto): An automated outbound service that immediately connects with an IVR application. Based on the responses provided, the called party can be connected to the agent through an inbound voice.
    • 10DMT (Manual): A human-initiated service in which an agent must manually enter all ten digits of a telephone number on the keypad to launch a call. The agent is unable to copy and paste any numbers into the keypad. If the agent enters an incorrect number, the number is ignored and the screen remains unchanged until the agent enters the correct number. The call is launched when the agent enters the correct number.

      If a consumer answers the call, the call is routed to the closer agent, who speaks with the consumer.

    • API Enabled (API Enabled): A service that allows manual dialing of desktop application programming interface (API) integrations.
    • SMS (Auto): A high-capacity North American Short Messaging Service (SMS) that interfaces with its outbound dialing systems. It offers both standard rate and Free-to-End-User (FTEU) dedicated common short code (CSC), long code, and toll-free SMS services that have complete mobile carrier coverage in both the United States and Canada.
  • Call Direction: The value in this field determines whether the service launches calls (outbound), receives calls (inbound), or does both (blended).
  • ACD mode: The value in this field determines the direction and type of the audio connection to adjust the audio path and/or the dialing behavior for the service.

    • 10DMT: Used to complete the configuration of the 10DMT service.
    • Agent At Ready In: Used for the agents to dial a phone number to establish an audio path.
    • Agent At Ready Out: Used for the agents to provide a Direct Inward Dialing (DID) number or an extension number when they log on to their desktops;  the platform then calls the same number to establish an audio path.
    • Agent Call Out: The same as the Agent At Ready Out mode, except that in this mode, the calls are made for each individual connection as opposed to a persistent audio connection.
    • HCI: Used to complete the configuration of the HCI service.
    • Manual: Used for a manual service in which the system determines whether the service functions as the Agent at Ready In mode if the agent call-in number is populated or as the Agent At Ready Out mode if the agent call-in number is not populated. 
    • No Acd: Used for the inbound, SMS, unattended, and whisper service types where an agent is not required (that is, the service does not contain the ACD module).
    • Strict HCI: Used to complete the configuration of a strict HCI service.
    • HTI: Used to complete the configuration of HTI service.

The Change History tab contains a table with the history of all changes made to the service. 

This tab displays only when either HCI or 10DMT service types are selected from the drop-down and allows permitted users to configure preferred click distribution at service or service group level:
  • Service: Clicks are routed to the agents assigned directly to this service when services are selected as preferred click distribution.
  • Service Group: Clicks are routed to the agents assigned to the services associated with the service group when Service Group is selected as preferred click distribution.
To configure Preferred Click Distribution, you need to create a new service group type UNIFORM_DISTRIBUTION and assign HCI or 10DMT services in it which a clicker agent will log into. Once a UNIFORM_DISTRIBUTION service group has been created, it will become available as a drop-down option for HCI or 10DMT services.

This tab enables you to configure the inbound service hours of operation which in turn affects the contact flow routing for call center open and closed actions. This tab displays only if you select Inbound or Blended call direction on the General tab.

  • Configure Hours: Provides options to configure the hours of operations for the selected service.
  • Add Absolute Date: Allows you to configure the hours of operation for a specific date.
    Using Absolute date, the Inbound hours can be configured for a particular day.
  • Delete: Deletes the configured date.

The Messaging section contains the inherited filter, input filter, contact flow results rule set and the list of Properties section. You can add (Add Property button), delete the property (select the property and click the Delete icon), and edit properties (double click on the property). You can also lookup a property by selecting Lookup Properties button. The properties are maintained by the platform and should not be edited unless you know explicitly what you are doing. For Inbound Services the message is located in the Phones tab (Inbound Message). 

  • Inherited Filter: Displays the client level default or the filter that will be used, if nothing is specified in the Input Filter field.
  • Input Filter: Displays the service level default which supersedes the inherited or client-level Input Filter default.
  • Contact Flow Results Rule Set: Displays the Rule Set associated with the given Contact Flow of the given message that is assigned to the service.
  • Phone to TTS – The number used in answering machine messages for text to speech (TTS).
  • Operator Phone – The number used when dialing using extensions rather than DIDs. For Manual Services, the Operator Phone will act as the Caller ID. 
  • Inbound Message - The message associated with the inbound service.
  • Agent Call In Number – The number agents are prompted to dial when using Agent at Ready ACD mode to establish audio pathway to the platform. An 899 indicates VoIP. On a manual service a blank Agent Call In Number will result in the platform calling agents; if populated, agents will call into the platform. Clicking on the link next to this option will open Agent Call In Number Configuration screen to view the Agent Call In number or Agent Call In Number Group, depending on the option which is selected. 

    For international number dialing, the values in the Caller ID, Phone Number to TTS, Operator Phone and Agent Call In Number fields must be in the E.164 format. Phone numbers without a country code are validated using the Dialing Country of Origin field in the Client editor and treated as non-international numbers.
