converse-on split (skill)

VDN Override
If a call that accesses multiple VDNs encounters a
converse-on
step
passing ‘‘vdn,’’ normal override rules determine which VDN number is
outpulsed to the VRU.
VDN Reports
For call tracking in CMS and BCMS VDN reports, a
converse-on
step is
treated like an
announcement
step. A call is considered ‘‘answered’’ when
it is answered by a nonconverse split (skill) but never when it is answered
by a converse split (skill).
Vector-controlled Splits (Skills)
A
converse-on
step may place a call to a split (skill) only if that split (skill)
is administered as a vector-controlled split (skill).
CMS Interactions
CMS tracks calls placed by a
converse-on
step to a CMS-measured split (skill).
converse-on
vector steps may be administered from R3 CMS and later releases.
Since with the
converse-on
step it is now possible for a call to be ‘‘answered’’ in
more than one split (skill), trunk totals no longer match split (skill) totals. However,
VDN totals and trunk totals will match.
