Settings

The Settings tab displays the following settings. An asterisk (*) indicates the settings that are not available to tenants with Standard licenses.

In the table below, the cross mark (✓) in the Tenant column indicates the settings that authorized users of your enterprise specify. Similarly, the ✓ mark in the Partner column identifies the settings that the partner administrator specifies. The ✓ in the Webex Contact Center column identifies the settings that the Webex Contact Center administrator specifies.

To modify the settings, click Edit at the bottom of the page.

Call Settings

Short Call Threshold

The time interval, in seconds, to determine whether the call is short or abandoned.

Sudden Disconnect Threshold

The time interval in seconds to determine whether the agent handles the call or the call ends. The time determines if there is an issue with the connectivity or with the behavior of the agent. You can consider a call as disconnected, if the call terminates within this time interval after it reaches a destination site.

Default Outdial ANI

The default dial number for the tenant to make outdial calls. The default dial number is displayed in the customer's caller ID, if an agent does not select a specific outdial ANI (Automatic Number Identification) for an outdial call.

Note
  • To be available as the default outdial ANI, the dial number must be mapped to an entry point. For more information, see Entry Point Mappings.

  • By default, the first dial number that is mapped to an entry point is displayed as the default outdial ANI. If a dial number is not mapped to an entry point, the Default Outdial ANI field indicates Not Configured.

To select a default outdial ANI for the tenant, click Edit at the bottom of the page. The Default Outdial ANI drop-down list contains all of the existing dial numbers that are mapped to entry points. To set a dial number as the default outdial ANI, select the dial number from the drop-down list.

Timeout Settings

Desktop Inactivity Timeout

Desktop Inactivity Timeout enables you to automatically sign out an agent from the desktop after being idle for the specified time.

The default setting is set to No. If the setting remains at No, then the agents who are signed in will be charged for agent license usage until their session is explicitly signed out.

If the setting is Yes, system automatically signs out an agent after being idle for the provided timeout duration.

  • You can provide an idle timeout value from 3 to 10,000 minutes.

Concurrent Voice Contact Settings

Concurrent Voice Contact Entitlements

The number of concurrent voice contact sessions that the tenant is entitled to.

This entitlement is based on the following formula:

((Number of committed Standard Agent licenses + Number of committed Premium Agent licenses) x 3) + Number of Add-on IVR port licenses

One session (interaction) in surge protection includes all the inbound and outbound calls related to that session.

Note
  • For zero commitment orders, the default value of Concurrent Voice Contact Entitlements is:

    100 + Number of Add-on IVR port licenses

  • You cannot modify the value of Concurrent Voice Contact Entitlements.

Voice Contact Surge Percentage

The percentage of voice contact sessions that the tenant can have, over and above the Concurrent Voice Contact Entitlements.

The default surge percentage is 30%.

Maximum Concurrent Voice Contact Threshold

The maximum number of concurrent voice contact sessions that are allowed for the tenant. The contact center drops any inbound or outbound voice contacts after reaching this threshold.

This value is derived from the Concurrent Voice Contact Entitlements and the Voice Contact Surge Percentage fields.

For example, if the concurrent voice contact entitlements is 300 and the surge percentage is 30% (default value), the Maximum Concurrent Voice Contact Threshold is calculated as:

300 x 1.3 = 390

Note
  • If the Maximum Concurrent Voice Contact Threshold is insufficient for your business requirements, submit a service request to Cisco Support to have the value adjusted. Cisco Support will adjust the surge percentage to ensure that the required Maximum Concurrent Voice Contact Threshold is available for your tenant.

  • The Maximum Concurrent Voice Contact Threshold cannot exceed 13000.

Concurrent Digital Contact Settings
Concurrent Digital Contact Entitlements

The number of concurrent digital contact sessions that the tenant is entitled to.

This entitlement is based on the following formula:

(Number of committed Standard Agent licenses + Number of committed Premium Agent licenses) x 2 x 15

Note
  • For zero commitment orders, the default value of concurrent digital contact entitlements is:

    100 x 15

  • You cannot modify the value of concurrent digital contact entitlements.

Digital Contact Surge Percentage

The percentage of digital contact sessions that the tenant can have, over and above the concurrent digital contact entitlements.

The default surge percentage is 30%.

Maximum Concurrent Digital Contact Threshold

The maximum number of concurrent digital contact sessions that are allowed for the tenant. The contact center drops any new digital contacts after reaching this threshold.

The value of Maximum Concurrent Digital Contact Threshold is set to 30% higher than the concurrent digital contact entitlements.

Maximum Concurrent Digital Threshold = Concurrent Digital Contact Entitlements * 1.3.

This value is derived from the Concurrent Digital Contact Entitlements and the Digital Contact Surge Percentage fields:

Maximum Concurrent Digital Threshold =

(Number of committed Standard Agent licenses + Number of committed Premium Agent licenses) x 2 x 15 x 1.3

For example, if the concurrent digital contact entitlements is 300 and the surge percentage is 30% (default value), the maximum concurrent digital contact threshold is calculated as:

300*1.3 = 390

Note
  • For zero commitment orders, the maximum concurrent digital contact threshold is:

    Max Concurrent Digital Contact Threshold = Concurrent Digital Contact Entitlement * 1.3 =

    1500 * 1.3

  • When incoming contacts are rejected because of the surge, the associated flow generates a flow error on its node. You can find the details of the error in the Surge Protection Statistics report.

  • If the maximum concurrent digital contact threshold is insufficient for your business requirements, submit a service request to Cisco Support to have the value adjusted. Cisco Support will adjust the surge percentage to ensure that the required maximum concurrent digital contact threshold is available for your tenant.

  • The maximum concurrent digital contact threshold cannot exceed 160,000.

Other Settings

Allow Agent Threshold

If this setting is Yes, the system enables the Agent Threshold Alert feature for your enterprise.

All tenants with a Standard or a Premium license have Agent Threshold Alert.

Note

This feature is not supported. Enabling or disabling the Allow Agent Threshold to show the agent threshold on the agent profile page will be removed in sometime.

Maximum Callback Attempts

The number of times the system attempts a requested callback if the initial callback attempt fails.

Retry Callback Interval

The number of seconds between the callback attempts in case the initial callback attempt fails.

Pause/Resume Enabled

If this setting is Yes, agents can pause and resume recording a call. For example, the agent can pause a call recording while obtaining sensitive information from the customer, such as credit card information.

If this setting is No, you can enable this feature for individual queues at another time.

Note

You can use this feature only if your administrator enables the Privacy Shield feature for your enterprise. For more information, contact your administrator.

Recording Pause Duration

This setting specifies the amount of time for which the system pauses the call recording. After the time has elapsed, the system automatically starts recording the call.

Check Agent Availability

If this setting is Yes, the system does not route any contacts to the teams with no logged-in agents.

If this setting is No, you can enable this setting for individual queues. For more information, see Adding an Entry Point or Queue.

Record All Calls

If this setting is Yes, the system records all inbound and outdial calls.

If this setting is No, the system records calls based on the settings for each queue.
