Acceptable Service Level
Before using BCMS, you should understand the concept of Acceptable Service Level and
set the acceptable service level field on various screens.
Acceptable Service Level is the desired time for an agent to answer a call for a given VDN
or hunt group. Timing for a call begins when the call encounters a VDN or enters a hunt
group queue. If the number of seconds to answer the call is equal to or less than the
administered acceptable service level for the VDN or hunt group, the call is recorded as
acceptable.
This section includes the following topics:
● Percent within service level on page 18
● Acceptable Service Level administration on page 19
Percent within service level
A service level can be administered for each hunt group or VDN if the BCMS/VuStats
Service Level customer option has been enabled and if the hunt group or VDN is
measured by BCMS.
To calculate the percentage of calls within the acceptable service level, BCMS divides the
number of acceptable calls by the calls offered.
For hunt groups, BCMS calculates the Percent Within Service Level as follows:
where:
● accepted - Is the number of calls answered for which the queue time was less than or
equal to the administered service level for the split.
● dequeued - Is the number of calls that encountered the split queue, but were NOT
answered, abandoned, or outflowed. This occurs with multiple split queuing.
For VDNs, BCMS calculates the Percent Within Service Level as follows:
where:
● accepted - Is the number of answered calls (num ans) for which the time to answer was
less than or equal to the administered service level for the VDN. num ans here refers to
the data item on the screen.
