  5. IVR functioning principle (1/2) • The Hermes.Net script editor enables you to construct your own IVRs, from the simplest to the most complex. All expected functions of an IVR are available: • Verification of call dates and times • Conditional tree structure • Replay of recorded messages • DTMF menu • DTMF input according to your parameters (entered by the caller on his/her keypad) • Vocal summary • Connection to the databases • Statistics • Supervision • Etc. • A tracking mode enables you to check your scripts in real time and make changes before starting them in production • The generated IVR scripts can be monitored in the Supervision and Reports modules: track user traffic and their navigation OVERVIEW OF THE TRAINING STEPS, FUNCTIONING AND INTERFACE CREATING AN IVR IN THE INTERFACE DESIGNER MODULE CONNECTING AN IVR TO A CAMPAIGN "FIRST AID" METHODS TESTING YOUR KNOWLEDGE

  6. IVR functioning principle (2/2) • The basic IVR functions are the following: • Message suggesting to call back for a call outside service hours • Use of a DTMF input to qualify the call and direct it, via the campaign and queue, to the agent with the right skills • Take messages based on predefined situations • Example of the relationship between IVR and telephony: OVERVIEW OF THE TRAINING STEPS, FUNCTIONING AND INTERFACE CREATING AN IVR IN THE INTERFACE DESIGNER MODULE CONNECTING AN IVR TO A CAMPAIGN "FIRST AID" METHODS TESTING YOUR KNOWLEDGE Inbound phone number DID (Root) Campaign – Incoming Media Optional IVR  Qualification A or B Queue A B

  7. Interface Designer Module – IVR:Interface • Workspace (1): where commands (2) open and must be connected • Menus (3): the various actions in the editor (save, generate, manage functions, edit commands, open tools (e.g. tracker) etc.) • Record button (4) to save the configuration at each step • Command currently selected (5) to be renamed • List of commands (6): lists all commands that can be added – functions by command categories, the list of which opens when clicking the category title • Parameters of the currently selected command (7): configures the command in progress – varies according to the command (info to record, sound file to connect, number of DTMF outputs, choice of ending strategy, etc.) OVERVIEW OF THE TRAINING STEPS, FUNCTIONING AND INTERFACE CREATING AN IVR IN THE INTERFACE DESIGNER MODULE CONNECTING AN IVR TO A CAMPAIGN "FIRST AID" METHODS TESTING YOUR KNOWLEDGE

  8. Interface Designer Module – IVR: Functioning principles • Like the Action Builder used for Scripts, using this module consists in: • Organizing commands (instead of actions) by linking their connectors • Configuring each command and, if necessary, associating sound files • Recording the configuration progressively • Once the configuration is satisfactory, generating in production • Connecting commands • In the commands list, select and click the one you wish to add. It appears in the workspace • Move the new command while holding down the mouse button until the connectors are green • Release the mouse button – the commands position themselves and the connectors turn gray. You can now move a command without breaking the link. To break a link, double-click the connector OVERVIEW OF THE TRAINING STEPS, FUNCTIONING AND INTERFACE CREATING AN IVR IN THE INTERFACE DESIGNER MODULE CONNECTING AN IVR TO A CAMPAIGN "FIRST AID" METHODS TESTING YOUR KNOWLEDGE
