ACD
Automatic call distribution (ACD) provides a means of automatically
distributing a company or organization’s incoming calls among a number of
answering positions (ACD agents). Automatic call distribution is useful in
operations where callers want a service rather than a specific person. Calls
are serviced in the order they arrive and distributed so that the workload at
each answering position is approximately equal.
ACD configuration
The ACD configuration includes the assignments in the Meridian MAX
system of agents to queues, of queues to a supervisor, of trunks to routes,
and of routes to queues. It also includes the parameters that control
recorded announcements, call overflow and interflow, and night service.
ACD-DN
An automatic call distribution - directory number (ACD-DN) is the queue
where incoming calls wait until they are answered. Calls are answered in
the order in which they entered the queue.
Agent
An agent is a person who answers ACD calls. An agent should be able to
provide all the information needed for an ACD call.
AM
The application module (AM) is the card cage that resides within the
Application Equipment Module (AEM). The AM supports VME-based
application products, such as Meridian MAX. Two AMs can fit into each
AEM. Each AM has its own power supply.
