Using Avaya Agent with Outbound Contact
If you are assigned to use Outbound Contact Management, your supervisor has set up your calling
activities, called "jobs." A job includes a list of customers to be called.
As you carry out these jobs, you use areas of the Avaya Agent to help you manage your calls to
customers. For example, you can view information about the customers in CallCenterQ and the
Contact History Browser as you speak with them.
