ACD agent operation

Important: You are being assigned a special feature not explained in the regular station user
guide or tutorial. Be sure to get your ACD department number from the System
Administrator.
9
An ACD department is made up of agents who, when logged on, can receive calls for that
department. Calls go to the logged-on agents who has been idle for the longest time. If all logged-
on agents are busy, IVX places the calls in a holding queue and automatically connects the longest-
holding call when an agent becomes available. While holding, callers hear periodic prompts to
continue to hold. As an ACD department agent, you must have one of your phone's programmable
feature keys programmed as an agent log-on/off key (see below) for each ACD department to
which you are assigned. This key lets you manually place yourself in or out of service for that
department's calls.
Note: Even though you may have been assigned to more than one ACD department, you can be
logged into only one department at a time.

Programming the agent log-on/off key

Enter the phone's help mode by pressing PROG/HELP.

3.
(a.) Access programmable feature key programming (PROG/HELP 2).
(b.) Press the key of the desired location.
(c.) Dial 5 plus the department number (the department number will be from 290 to 299).
(d.) Press the programmable feature key again.

Wrap mode

If you have paperwork or other wrap-up activities following a call, you'll appreciate IVX's wrap
mode. While you're logged on as an agent, pressing the programmed wrap key (or placing the call
on Hold) prior to disconnecting from a call will set your station in wrap mode — this delays
immediate assignment of the next call until you have had time to complete any wrap-up activities.
Press the wrap key again to release your station from wrap mode and be available for the next call.
Note: The Installer may have set a maximum allowable wrap time. If so, when you're in wrap mode,
the upper-right portion of the display will show a count-down timer indicating the amount of
time remaining in wrap mode. At the expiration of this timer, you will automatically be
available for the next call.
