Agent identifier available in the VDN Return Destination feature

Last Updated : Oct 15, 2019 |

You can add the agent identifier to the information available to the IVR system with a post-call survey. The agent identifier is available in a new system-defined variable type in vectoring. It is sent to an IVR application performing a post-call survey when a customer call is redirected by the VDN Return Destination (VRD) feature into vector processing. You can include the agent identifier in User-to-User Information (UUI) using existing vector commands before routing the call to an external IVR system. By adding the agent identifier in UUI, post-call surveys can furnish reports details down to the agent level.

Agent in this context is the agent who has disconnected from the customer session. UUI can contain the agent identifier for only one agent. For example, in case of a call flow that has multiple transfers and multiple agents handling that customer call in a sequence then the UUI contains the agent identifier only for the last agent who spoke to the customer. In this case, the IVR or the VRU system with a post-call survey application receives the agent information only for the last agent and the customer rating is applicable only for that agent.
