Pre-defined Dispositions

This section provides descriptions of the predefined dispositions that are created by default whenever you define a new service. For general information about dispositions, their purpose, and configuration, see section Dispositions Tab of this guide.

Many dispositions defined apply to outbound campaigns only, and some of those are used for preview records only.

All dispositions in the Connection Problem folder are by default visible to agents. This is essential for preview campaigns where call progress is monitored by agents. If you are running a predictive or progressive campaign where the call progress analysis is performed by the system, you may consider hiding some of these dispositions. If you do so, it is recommended that you leave dispositions Answering machine and Silence visible to the agents.

Note: The dispositions that are hidden from the agents are shown in italic, both in the application and in the following list.

Final folder

The meaning of each predefined description is given as follows. Product sold

The business purpose of the call/chat was fulfilled.

Offer rejected

The business purpose of the call/chat was not fulfilled, but no follow up is required or expected by the customer.

Add to DNC

The remote party requested that no further calls be made to his numbers.

Record matches DNC

The attempted record matches an entry in one the associated record-based DNC lists (i.e. Do Not Call lists).

Bad record

The agent reviewed the calling record and marked it as unusable (e.g., due to insufficient or corrupted data).

Problem solved

The customer email confirmed successful resolution of the original matter (e.g., a thank you note) and was closed without reply. This disposition closes the email case.

Answer provided

The customer email was replied to and no follow-up is expected or necessary. This disposition closes the email case.

The content of the customer email had no connection to any services provided by the contact center. This disposition closes the email case.

Non-final folder

The attempted number matches a number in one of the associated number-based DNC lists.

Wrong person

The person who answered the call was not the person for whom the call was intended (but the latter may be reached at the same number later).

Wrong number

The person for whom the call was intended cannot be reached at this number.

Dropped while talking

The call was dropped (accidentally disconnected) while the conversation was in progress. This disposition can also be used for chats that were ended due to customer inactivity.

The customer email was replied to and some follow-up is expected. The email case stays open.

Connection problem folder

Busy

The called number was busy.

Fast busy

The call attempt returned the fast busy signal (reorder tone) indicating that the call cannot be established due to network congestion. Note that sometimes network operators also use Fast Busy to indicate invalid and/or disconnected numbers.

No answer

The called party did not answer within the No Answer timeout.

Fax or modem

The called line is connected to a fax or modem.

Announcement

The connected call attempt returned speech that was not live voice or an answering machine greeting. For example, this announcement can be an interactive voice response (IVR) announcement indicating that a company office was closed or an IVR menu asking to press a digit for the desired department.

Network announcement

The call attempt returned speech before connecting the call, such as a network message indicating, for example, that the call could not be established at this time.
