Scenarios Overview

Scenarios define the logic of automated interaction processing in your contact center. Execution of a scenario with respect to a specific interaction is triggered by a particular event, such as the arrival of a call at a specific access number or the initiation of a chat session from a specific web page. Scenarios can perform many different automated actions. For example, with respect to an inbound call, scenarios can collect additional information via interaction voice response, identify the requested service, and distribute the call to one of the qualified and available contact center agents.

The list in left pane of the scenario view displays the existing voice scenarios. If a scenario is being edited by someone else at the moment, the name of the editor will appear in the Currently Edited By column.

How to Use Scenario Templates

Bright Pattern Contact Center provides a number of scenario templates for some standard functions, such as virtual queue and compliant telemarketing calls.

The Select template window will offer a drop-down menu with the following templates from which to choose:

• Auto-Attendant
