Task 1: Create the IPCC Sales Script


The student will be creating the IPCC script named Sales to determine call routing based on
CED and on agent availability.
The student will build a script to route for the following business rule:

Incoming call arrives on dialed number 7000. The call is routed to an available CTI port for
media termination. The ICM has directed the IPIVR to run the CollectDigits script (IP IVR
script), where the caller is prompted for digits.

If a CED of 1 is entered, send the caller to the PreSales.SG. If there are no agents
available, the caller will queue to PreSales.SG until an agent becomes available.

If a CED of 2 is entered, send the caller to the PostSales.SG. If there are no agents
available, the caller will queue to PostSales.SG until an agent becomes available.

While queued, the BasicQ script (IP IVR script) will execute.

Activity Procedure
Complete these steps:
Step 1

Locate and double click the icon for Script Editor in the IPCC Administration
Program Group.

Step 2

Open a new script by clicking on the New folder icon in the Script Editor menu tool
bar. When the Create A New Script window appears, select the phone icon for
Routing script.

Step 3

A new routing script will open in edit mode.

Step 4

Using the Palette (or the Right-Click Method), build the script in the provided
diagram.

Step 5

Arrange the nodes in your workspace in a logical flow representing your business
rules. Connect your nodes and configure the properties of the nodes.

Step 6

When your script has been completed, validate the script to identify and then correct
errors or warnings.

Step 7

Save the script as Sales.

Step 8

Schedule Sales script with Sales_CT call type and map to 7000_Sales dialed
number.

Activity Verification
You have completed this task when you attain these results:

The Sales script has been created, validated, saved, and scheduled.

Step 1

With agent OWright Not Ready, from the 9503 phone, dial 7000. When prompted,
press 1 for a PreSales agent. You should hear an announcement that All
representatives are helping other customers, and the call is placed into queue
while music plays.

Step 2

Log in agent OWright of the PreSales.SG. As soon as OWright is logged in, his
phone rings due to the PreSales call being transferred out of queue to a Presales
Agent (Orville Wright).

Step 3

With agent PWagstaff Not Ready, from the 9503 phone, dial 7000. When prompted,
press 2 for a PostSales agent. You should hear an announcement that All
representatives are helping other callers, and the call is placed into queue while
music plays.

Step 4

Log in agent Patty Wagstaff or other agent name of the PostSales.SG. As soon as
Patty Wagstaff is logged in, her phone rings due to the PostSales call being
transferred out of queue to a PostSales Agent (Patty Wagstaff or other agent name).

Activity Verification
You have completed this task when you attain these results:

When agents are Not Ready, the calls will Queue. If an agent is available, the call is
directed to the agent resource and the pone where that agent is logged in will ring.
