BCMS Description and Applic ations

Overview

In order to monitor the operations of an ACD application, which automatical ly` distributes incoming calls to one or more groups of agents, AT&T offers the Call Management S y stem (CMS ) software. T he CMS collects dat a r egarding the calls on the switch and organizes the data into reports that help you manage ACD facilities and personnel. These reports may be displayed on a video d isplay terminal in real time, printed immediately, or scheduled for printing at a later time.
2
AT&T offers two types of CMS: External CMS and BCMS. Although both of these options perform the same tasks, they are configured differently and have different capacities. Th is chapter presents the capacities f o r B C MS G3vs, BCM S G3s, BCMS G3i, and BCMS G3r.
In the External CMS arrangement, the CMS software resides in a computer (usually referred to as an ‘‘adjunct’’) that is connected to the syst em via a data link. In the BCMS arra ngement, the CMS software resides within the system. A third arrangement exists in which both BCMS and External CMS report on a hunt group. For R2 CMS, if external CMS or ‘‘BOTH’’ is requested, measured hunt groups must begin with hunt group 1 and be consecutively assigned.

BCMS Reports

The BCMS fe ature provides the fol lowing reports:
1. Monitor Reports, which are real-time reports that present data on:
All splits, on a system basis, that have been administered for
internal measurements
Issue 4 September 1995 2-1
BCMS Description and Applications
Individual splits that have been administered for internal or both
measurements
VDNs that are bein g measured by BCMS.
2. List Reports, which provide historical information and can be printed immediately or scheduled for subsequent printing. These reports present data on:
Individual agents or a group of agents, based on the time of day
Individual agents or a group of agents, based on the day of the
week
Individual splits or a group of splits, based on the time of day
Individual splits or a group of splits, based on the day of the week
Individual trunk groups or a group of trunk groups, based on the
time of day
Individual trunk groups or a group of trunk groups, based on the
day of the week
Individual Vector Directory Numbers (VDNs) based on the time of
day
Individual VDNs based on the day of the week
The examples of reports throughout this manual illustrate BCMS reports as they appear in G3V4. If you have an earlier version of the switch, your reports may differ from the examples.
NOTE:
Agents can be measured b y their physical extension (that is, the phone extension they use), or they can be measured by their Login IDs when either EAS or BCMS/VuStats Login IDs is optioned.

Feature Capacity Limits (Maximums)

The BCMS feature is designed to support ACD applications with requirements that do not exceed the capac ity limits contained in Table 2-1.

NOTE:
In G3V3 and later releases, an agent can log into a maximum of four measured splits at any one time.
The important point regarding these capacity limits is that the system will only make internal measurements for parameters that are within these limits. If you want to measure one or more ACD parameters that exceed the BCMS capacity limits, you must use External CMS.
BCMS reports may be accessed fr o m a G 3 M an agem ent Terminal or on a dial-up basis. When dial-up access is used, two constraints can affect the number of terminals that can access BCMS data simultaneously:
The number of dial-up (Netcon) channels. The system provides f o ur
Netcon channels.
The number of Terminal User IDs (TUIs). A TUI is a switch resource used
by:
— A T&T T echnical Service Center (TSC) when logged in
Issue 4 September 1995

BCMS Description and Applications
NOTE:
— The G3 Management Terminal when powered up — A rem ote Management Terminal when logged in — A BCMS terminal when logged in — The system printer while printing
BCMS data is stored in volatile switch me mory; it cannot be saved to or retrieved from tape. The switch preserves historical data if a Reset System 1, Reset System 2, or Reset System Interchange (i n a du p licated system) occurs. Real-time data is preserved if a Reset System 1 or Reset System Interchange occurs.
The switch loses all data (historical and real-time) during software upgrades.

Hardware Configuration

Th e B C MS reports may be displaye d via t he G 3 M anagemen t Terminal or printed on its associated printer. As a result, the BCMS feature does not require any new or additional hardware. As an option, the BCMS reports may be scheduled via the Report Schedu le r an d directed to its associated printer. The Report Scheduler option i s preferred over the Management Terminal and its associated slave printer. Scheduled reports cannot be sent to a CRT or associated slave printer. Figure 2-1 shows a sample ACD/BCMS equipment configuration, including arrangements for connecting the optional printer(s).

BCMS Description and Applications
NOTE:
for using the Feature-Related System Parameters for to set up the Report Scheduler are covered in Chapter 5, "System Printer and Report Scheduler".
Th e R eport Scheduler should not be confused with and does not replace the journal, Call Detail Records (CDR), or Property Manageme nt System (P MS) dedicated printers. Consisting of virtually any asynchronous printer, the Report Scheduler is intended to print all DEFINITY Generic 3 reports and the output of virtually all list, display, and test commands. As an option, a personal computer (PC) or host computer may be used to store the reports and provide additional data manipulation capabilities. AT&T does not provide PC software for this application.
The BCMS software resides completely on the switch and does not include any special software or unique communications protocol for the PC/host computer application. Although AT&T does propose the use of a PC to collect, store, and p rint the reports, AT&T does not recommend an applications software package for the PC. Since AT&T does not install, administer, or control the PC application, AT&T does not guarantee correct operation of this arrangement. Customers using a PC to collect report data will need the following report output information for each report:
1. Begin with one-half page of line feeds.
2. Print a four-line banner containing th e following information:
Print job ID
Command
Time of day
User
3. Provide a form feed.
4. Begin report data using 80 characters p er line. Use spaces where there are no data, and a newline character at the end of each line.
5. Provide a form feed after each page of data. (The page length is defined in system parameters.)
6. Provide a form feed when the report is finished printing.

BCMS Applications

You can use the BCMS feature to support tho se service applications that use the ACD f ea t ur e. The primary service applications that use the ACD feature are calls and customer servic e centers.
2-6 Issue 4 S eptember 1995
BCMS Applications
Determining the proper size for the ACD trunk groups and the number of agents that should b e assigned to each split requires knowledge of the incoming call volume with respect to the following factors:
Each type of service provided
Time of day
Day of the week
Skill level of the agent
Generally, ACD applications are not preplanned because the types of traffic information that would be required are unavailable. Initially, ACD applications are engineered based on an estimated calling volume. Subsequently, the BCMS reports allow you to manage the hourly and/or daily operations of the ACD by:
Monitoring trunk group usage
Monitoring the calling volume for each split
Monitoring VDNs
Monitoring the work load of each agent
Comparing agents’ performances
Chapter 4, "BCMS Report Generation" describes each BCMS report in detail while Chapter 6, "Use of B CMS R eports for ACD Planning" describes ho w t o plan and maintain an ACD based on the information provided by these reports.
NOTE:
Most BCMS measurement data is collec t ed a t the end of a call, whereas hunt group measurements count calls as soon as they begin. Therefore, calls spanning across a time interval boundary will be co unted differentl y by the two. If comparing the measurements from BCMS with those from the hunt groups, there may be slight differences. However, both hunt group and BCMS measurements should indicate the same trends.

Interactions With External CMS

From the administration perspective, the ACD parameters associated with trunks groups, hunt groups, and VDNs are any of the following:
Not measured
Internally measured by BCMS
Externally measured by External CMS
Measured both internally and externally
Note that using BCMS in conjunction with External CMS increases the maximum number of agents and trunk groups that can be measured for a particular ACD

BCMS Description and Applications
application. In other words, the capacities shown for BCMS are additive to those of External CMS.
NOTE:
If both BCMS and External CMS are used simultaneously, switch performance may be degraded.

Interactions with VuStats

G3V3 and later releases provide the VuStats feature, which enables agents and supervisors with display terminal to view data about agents, splits, and VDNs. Much of this information is the same as that provided by BCMS and external CMS. Refer to the VuStats section in the

System Access

Logging In and Logging Off

BCMS p rovides one login ID and supports a maximum of five G3 Management Terminals logged in simultaneously. (A BCMS terminal is considered to be a remote Management Terminal. You can access BCMS reports either from a Management Terminal (local) or on a dial-up (remote) basis. When dial-up access is used, the following two constraints affect the number of terminals that can access BCMS data simultaneously:
3
The number of dial-up (Netcon) channels. The system provides four
Netcon channels.
The number of Terminal User IDs (TUIs). A TUI is a switch resource used
by:
— TSC when logged in — the Management Terminal when powered up — a remote Management Terminal when logged in — a BCMS terminal when logged in — the system p rinter while printing
When the switch is configured with more than one Management Terminal, you may use one of the following terminals to access the BCMS feature:
4410
4425
513
610
615
Issue 4 September 1995 3-1
System Access
Typically, one terminal i s dedic a ted to the administration and/or maintenance tasks, while the others are used for the ACD/BCMS features.

BCMS Login

The switch provides several different categories of login names. The login name identifies the user and his or her permitted capabilities to the system. Generally, each category permits unique capabilities (and restrictions). The BCMS login allows you to display, print, and schedule BCMS reports. The BCMS login is simply bcms, and the password is bcmspw. Since more than one user will typically log into the system with this same login, all the users must know the password.

Logging In

How to Change the BC MS Password
To maintain the security of the system, the System Manager (or any user with special privileges) can change the password asso ciated with the BCMS login. The BCMS login cannot be administered and does not change. Only the passwo rd for the BCMS login can change.
NOTE:
The BCMS login does not have the privilege to change the BCMS password.
The password should be changed:
When the system is installed (change the password from the default
bcmspw)
Each time a new person takes over the associated login name
If an unauthorized person has discovered the password
Once the password is assigned, keep the followi n g t hings in mind:
Do not give the password to anyone
Keep the written p a s sword in a locked place
To chan ge a password, perform the following steps:

BCMS Report Generation

Overview

This chapter helps you understand the Acceptable Service Level and the Percent Within Service Level, and it provid e s inf ormati on on generating BCMS reports. It also provides descriptions of each of the reports.

Acceptable Service Level

Before using BCMS, you must understand the concept of Acceptable S e rvice Level and then set the acceptable service level field on various forms.
Acceptable Service Level is the desired time to answer 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 an swer the call is equal to or less than the administered a cceptable service level for the VDN or hunt group, the call is recorded as acc eptable.

Percent within Service Level

A service level can be administered for each hunt group or VDN, if t he customer option has been set to The service level is the amount of time (number of seconds) all owed t he switch to answer calls.
To calcul ate the perc entage 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:
% IN SERV LEVL =

than or equal to the administered service level for the split dequeued — Is the n umber of calls t hat encou ntered t h e s plit’s queu e, but w er e
NOT answered, abandoned, or outflowed. This occurs with multiple split queuing.
For VDNs, BCMS calculates the Percent Within Service Level as follows:

Real-Time Reports
BCMS provides three real-time reports:
BCMS Split Status Report
BCMS System Status Report
BCMS VDN Status Report
The BCMS Split Status Report provides the current (real-time) status and cumulative measurement data for thos e agents ass igned to the split you specify. The BCMS System Status Report provides current (real-time) status information for either all BCMS splits or selected splits. The BCMS VDN S tatus Report provides the current (real-time) status and cumulative measurement data for VDNs monitored by BCMS.
You may gener ate t hese reports using the monitor command, which is discussed below.

Monitor Command

The monitor command is used to display real-time status reports for splits and split agents. These reports display data accrued since the last inte rv al boundary. The time intervals may be in one-hour or half-hour increments. (To select the desired increment, ac ce ss the F eature-Related System Parameters screen and enter hour or half-hour in the Measurement Interval field. Consult Chapter 6, "Use of BCMS Reports for ACD Planning" for more information.)
There are three monitor commands, one to print each real-time report:
bcms split
bcms system
bcms vdn
The bcms split command generates the BCMS Split Status Report. The bcms system command generates the BCMS System Status Report. The bcms vdn
command generates the BCMS VDN Status Report. Whenever a status report is displayed on the G3 Management Terminal, it is
updated automatically approximately every 30 seconds. You can immediately update the on-screen status report by pressing command and return to the command prompt, press consists of more than one page, press pages and

Split Name — Th e admin istered name of the split. This name usually describes the purpose or service of the split (for example, sales, service, or help line). If no name exists, BCMS displays the split extension (for example, EXT 65222).
T he split name is limited to a maximum of 11 characters. If you enter more than 11 characters, the additiona l char a cters are not printed on the System Printer.
Calls Waiting — The number of calls currently queued and calls ringing at an agent’s phone. If any of the calls in the queue are Direct Agent calls, an asterisk appears before the value in this field. The Glossary describes the Direct Agent feature.
Oldest Call — The number of minutes and seconds that the oldest call in queue has been waiting to be answered. This includes calls ringing at an agent’s phone.
Acceptable Service Level — The desir ed tim e to answer for a given hunt group or VDN. Timing for a call begins when the call enters the hunt group queue.
% Within Service Level — The percentage of calls answered within th e administered service level. This field is blank if no calls have been recorded for this time interval or if there is no Hunt Group form.
Staffed — The num ber of agents currently logged into the split. Avail — The number of agents in this split c urrentl y available to receive an ACD
call. In order to b e counted as being available, agents must either be in the Auto-In or Manual-In work mode. Refer to the Glossary for a description of work modes. If the agent is on another split’s call or is performing After Call Work for another split, the agent is not considered available and is not recorded here. If a call is ringing at the agent’s phone or a call is on hold, the agent is not considered available unless Multiple Call Handling is active and the agent selects AI/MI with a call on hold.
ACD — Th e n umber of agents who are currently on an ACD call for this split. This value also includes Direct Agent calls and those agents who are currently on ACD calls that flowed in from another split.
ACW — The number of agents in this split who are currently in ACW mode for this split. Refer to the G los sary for a description of A fte r Ca ll Work (ACW) mode. If an agent is in ACW mode for another split, the agent is included in the Other

AUX — The number of agents in this split who are currently in the AUX work mode for this split. If an agent is answering a call from another split or is in ACW work mode for another split, that agent is not considered in AUX work mode for this split and is not included in this number. The agent is included in th e Other state count.
Extn — The number of agents in this split who are currently on non-ACD calls. These non-ACD calls may be either incoming (direct to the extension) or outgoing (direct from the extension). Those agents receiving or making extension calls while in Avail, ACW, or AUX work mode is recorded as being on extension calls.
Other — The number of agents in this split who:
Are on a call from another split
Are in AC W work mode for another split
Have placed a call on HOLD and made no other state selections
Have a call ringing at their voice terminals
Are dialing a number (to place a call or activate a feature)
All of the agents in the Other state are unavailable for ACD calls . AGENT NAME — The name of the agent. Generally, this is the agent’s first or last
name. However, if no name is administered on the station form, this field is left blank. When the field is blank, the data can be identified by th e extension.
LOGIN ID — The BCMS login ID(s) (taken from the BCMS Login ID f orm or EAS Login form) for which you requested the report. This column does not appear if BCMS logins are not optioned.
EXT — The 2-, 3-, 4-, or 5-digit extension number for the agent. STATE — The current work state for the agent. Possible work states are Avail,
ACD, ACW, AUX, Extn, and Other. (The sum of the time the agent spends in the possible work states is the agent’s
staffed
time.) Unstaffed agents do not appear on the report. When the system t ime is changed, agents are in the INIT state. Each agent remains in the INIT state until he or she takes a call or pushes a work button.

Displaying the BCMS System Status Report

BCMS allows you to generate a BCMS System Status Report on all the BCMS splits or selected BCMS splits. To generate a report on all the BCMS splits, enter the monitor bcms system command. The report produced by this command presents information on all BCMS splits that had agents staffed when you entered the command. To generate a report on selected BCMS splits, you must include t he split number(s) or split ranges at the end of the command. For example, if y ou wanted to generate a BCMS S y stem Status Report on split 4, you would enter: monitor bcms system 4. If you wanted to generate a BCMS System Status Report on splits 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, you would enter: monitor bcms system 1-5. BCMS also allows you to specify a range of splits and individual splits in a command. For example, if you have 8 splits (numbered 1 through 8) and wanted to generate a BCMS Sy stem St atus Report on splits 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8, you would enter: monitor bcms system 1-4 6 8.
To display the BCMS System Status Report, perform the following steps:
1. Enter monitor bcms system and press

BCMS VDN Status Report

The V DN Status Report gives real-time status information for internally measured VDNs. You can monitor up to 99 VDNs at one time, however; the report can display up to 13 VDNs on a single page. Therefore, if you are monitoring 99 VDNs, the report is 6 pages long. You must specify the extensions of the VDNs you want the system to monitor. You can specify the extension in a list or in a range format. For example,

Displaying the BCMS VDN Status Report

BCMS allows you to generate a BCMS V D N S t atus R eport o n a ll the BCM S VDNs or selected BCMS VDNs. To generate a report on all the BCMS VDNs, en ter the monitor bcms vdn comma nd. The report produced by this command p resents information on all BCMS VDNs that had agents staffed when you entered th e command. You may include up to 30 VDNs at a time. To generate a report on selected BCMS VDNs, you must include the VDN number(s) or VDN ranges at the end of the command. For example, if you wanted to g enerate a BCMS System Status Report on VDN 8250, you would enter: monitor bcms vdn
8250. If you wanted to generate a BCMS System Status Report on VDNs 8251, 8252, 8253, 8254, and 8255, you would enter: monitor bcms vdn 8251-8255. BCMS also allows you to specify a range of VDNs and individual VDNs in a command. For example, if you have eight VDNs (numbered 51 through 58) and wanted to generate a BCMS VDN Status Report on these eight VDNs, you would enter the following command: monitor bcms vdn 51-58.

Historical Reports

BCMS provides eight historical reports. These reports give you information for an interval of time. You can print the reports for a period time measured in minutes or hours, or a period of time measured in days. The BCMS historical reports are:
Agent Report
Agent Summary Report
Split and Skill Report
Split and Skill Summary Report
Trunk Group Report
Trunk Group Summary Report
V DN Report
VD N Su mmary Report
You are able to print the historical reports using the list commands, which are discussed below.

List Commands

The list commands are used to display historical information for agents, splits, system, trunk groups, and VDNs. There are eight secondary list commands:
bcms agent
bcms summary agent
bcms split
bcms summary split
bcms trunk
bcms summary trunk
bcms vdn
bcms summary vdn
With these comman ds, y ou can specify:
Whether you want the data in the reports to be displayed in
The times or days for which you wish to see data
The system to immediately display the report on your terminal
The system to print the report. If you include print at the end of the
hourly/half-hourly or da i ly intervals

BCMS Agent Report

NOTE:
NOTE:
you to schedule the report to print to the system printer immediately (immediate), at a later time (deferred), or routinely at specified times (scheduled).
Time interval data may be c ollected in half-hour or one-hour increments. (To select the desired increment, access the Feature-Related System Parameters screen and enter half-hour or hour in the Measurement Interval: field. Consult Chapter 6, "Use of BCMS Reports for ACD Planning" for more information.) The switch stores time interval data in a time database which holds a maximum of 25 intervals. Data for the 26th interval overwrites the first interval in the time database (and so on). Therefore, if the half-hour option is selected, care should be exercised to ensure that time interval reports are run while the data for the desired interval is still available in the time database. For example, if you select the half-hour option, print the report twice daily to ensure that you do not lose information.
BCMS Agent Report
The BCMS Agent Report provides traffic information for the specified agent. Depending on specifics from the command line, the information may be
time
nor
day
displayed as either a time interval or a daily summary. If neither
time
specified,
is the default. In this case, the report displays data accrued for
is
the previous 24 time intervals (hour or half-hour), including data from the most recently completed time interval. To get information on the current time interval, you must use a monitor bcms command. Screen 4-4 shows the BCMS Agent Report — Hourly, and Screen 4-5 shows the BCMS Agent Report — Daily.
NOTE:
BCMS c an track agents based on their phone numbers, or based on login IDs. If BCMS/VuStats Login IDs is optioned, BCMS tracks login IDs.
When analyzing this report, keep the following things in mind:
All averages are for completed calls only.
A completed call may span more than one time interval. ACD calls that are
in process (have not terminated) are counted in the time interval in which they terminate. For example, if an ACD call begins in the 10:00 to 11:00 time in t er v a l, but terminates in the 11:00 to 12:00 time interval, the data for this call is counted in the 11:00 to 12:00 time interval.
Asterisks indicate that the maximum for the associated field has been
exceeded .

Report Headers, Abbreviations, and Their Definitions
This report presents header infor m ation at the top of each page. This information includes the comman d entered to generate the report, the page number of the report, the title of the report, and the time and date the report was generated. If this is a time report and there are more than 11 time intervals, this report is displayed on multiple pages. A daily summary report is displayed on the last page of the report.
AGENT NAME — The name of the agent. If no name is administered, the agent’s extension is displayed in the form
TIME/DAY — The time or day interval specified in the command line. Time is always ex pressed in 24-hour format. Start and stop times are optional.
Reports always start at the earliest time interval (either hour or half-hour). If no start time is given, the oldest time interval is the default. A stop time requires an associated start time. If no stop time is given, the last completed time interval (hour or half-hour) is the default. If no start time or stop time is given, the report displays data accrued for the previous 24 t im e in tervals. If you specify command and do not include a start day or stop day, the report displays data accrued for the previous six days and data accrued through the most recently completed interval (hour or half-hour).

ACD CALLS — The number of ACD calls answered by this agent for all sp lits during the reporting interval. This value includes calls that flowed in from other splits and Direct Agent calls.
AVG TALK TIME — The average duration of ACD calls for all splits the agent was logged into. This value includes time spent talking but does not include the amount of time the agent was holding an ACD call or ring time at the agent’s voice terminal. The calculation is:
TOTAL AFTER CALL — The total amount of time that the agent spent in call-related or non-call-related ACW work states for all splits during the reporting interval. This does not include time spent on direct incoming or outgoin g calls while in ACW. If an agent entered ACW in one interval, but ended ACW in another interval, the appropriate amount of ACW time is credited to each of the intervals.
TOTAL AVAIL TIME — The sum of the time that the agent was available to receive ACD calls during the current interval. During this time, the agent:
Was in Auto-In or Manual-In work modes for at least one split
Was not in ACW in any split

TOTAL AUX/OTHER — The sum of the time that the agent has the AUX button pressed and is not doing any th i ng els e f o r a n y of th e o ther splits (that is, the sum of the time that the agent is in AUX work mode for all splits). This value does not include time the agent spent on an EXTN call or in Manual-In, Auto-In, or ACW mode for another split. Note that if the agent was in Other for all logged-in splits that time is reflected here. For example, ringing calls can cause several seconds of AUX time to accrue.
For the agent report, any non-ACD call time is totaled in the AVG EXTN TIME column. Two points of contrast are:
1. The measurement TOTAL AUX/OTHER is time-interval based, rather than being call related. For example, assuming that the previously identified stipulations are met, then if the agent is in AUX from 9:55 to 10:05, five minutes is pegged in the 9:00 to 10:00 time interval and five minutes is pegged in the 10:00 to 11:00 time interval.
2. The measurement AVG EXTN TIME is call related. For example, if an agent is on a non-ACD call from 9:55 to 10:05, the call and ten minutes of EXTN time is pegged in the 10:00 to 11:00 time interval.
Because the agent report includes some call-related items, the sum of all items for a given hour may not exactly equal 60 minutes.
EXTN CALLS — The total number of non-ACD incoming and outgoin g calls for this agent during the reporting interval. O nly those non-ACD calls that are originated and/or received while the agent is logged into at least one split are counted.
AVG EXTN TIME — The average amount of time that the agent spent on non-ACD calls while logged into at least one split during the reporting interval. This average does not inc lude time when the agent was holding the EXTN call. The calcu lati on is:
TOTAL TIME STAFFED — The total time that the agent spe nt logged into at least one split during the reporting interval. Staff time is clocked for an agent who is in m ul t iple splits as long as the agent is logged i n to any split. Concurrent times for each split are not totaled.
TOTAL HOLD TIME — The total time that the agent placed ACD calls on hold. This time is the
c aller’s hold time
and is independent of the state of the agent.
TOTAL HOLD TIME does not include the hold time for non-ACD calls.

Note that if the agent was in Other for all logged-in splits that time is reflected here. For example, ringing calls can cause several seconds of AUX time to accrue.
For the agent report, any non-ACD call time is totaled in the AVG EXTN TIME column. Two points of contrast are:
1. The measurement TOTAL AUX/OTHER is time-interval based, rather than being call related. For example, assuming that the previously identified stipulations are met, then if the agent is in AUX from 9:55 to 10:05, five minutes is pegged in the 9:00 to 10:00 time interval and five minutes is pegged in the 10:00 to 11:00 time interval.
4-30 Issue 4 September 1995
BCMS Agent Summary Report
2. The measurement AVG EXTN TIME is call related. For example, if an agent is on a non-ACD call from 9:55 to 10:05, the call and ten minutes of EXTN time is pegged in the 10:00 to 11:00 time interval.
Beca u se the agent report includes some call-related items, the su m of all items for a given hour cannot exactly equal 60 minutes.
EXTN CALLS — The tota l nu mber of non-ACD incoming and outgoing calls for this agent during the reporting interval. O nly those non-ACD calls that are originated and/or received while the agent is logged into at least one split are counted.
AVG EXTN TIME — The average amount of time that the agent spent on non-ACD calls while logged into at least one split during the reporting interval. This average does not inc lude time when the agent was holding the EXTN call. The calcu lati on is:
AVG EXTN TIME =
TOTAL TIME STAFFED — The total time that the agent spent logged into at least on e split during the reporting interval. Staff time is clocked for an agent who is in multiple splits as long as the agent is logged int o any spl it. Concurrent times for each split are not totaled.

Report Headers, Abbreviations, and Their Definitions
This report presents header infor m ation at the top of each page. This information includes the comman d entered to generate the report, the page number of the report, the title of the report, and the time and date the report was generated. If this is a time report and there are more than 10 time intervals, this report is displayed on multiple pages. A daily summary report is displayed on the last page of the report.
SPLIT — The split number specified with the command line. SPLIT NAME — Displays the name that is administered for this split number. If
no name exists, BCMS displays the split extension (for example, EXT 65432). ACCEPTABLE SERVICE LEVEL — The desired time to answer for a given hunt
group. Timing for a call begins when the call enters the hun t group queue. TIME/DAY — The time or day interval specified in the command line. Time is always ex pressed in 24-hour format. Start and stop times are optional.
Reports always start at the earliest time interval (either hour or half-hour). If no start time is given, the oldest time interval is the default. A stop time requires an associated start time. If no stop time is given, the last completed time interval (hour or half-hour) is the default. If no start or stop time is given, the report
day
displays data accrued for the previous 24 t im e in tervals. If you specify
in the command and do not include a start day or stop day, the report displays data accrued for the previous six days and data accrued through the most recently completed interval (hour or half-hour).
ACD CALLS — The number of ACD calls completed for this split during the current interval. This number also includes calls that flowed in from other splits and Direct Agent calls.
AVG SPEED ANS — The average am ount of ti me answered ACD calls (split and Direct Agent) spent in queue and ringing at an agent’s station before being answered during the reporting interval. Calls that flowed in do not have queue time from the previous split included in this average. Th is calculation is:
AVG SPEED ANS =

ABAND CALLS — The total number of ACD calls that have hung up while waiting to be answered during this time interval. This value includes those calls that have abandoned while in queue or while ringing. Calls that are not queued (because the queue is full, the caller receives a forced first announcement and abandons during the announcement, or no agents are staffed) are not counted as abandoned. Also, calls that abandon while on hold are not counted as abandoned.

TOTAL AFTER CALL — The amount of time that the agents in this split spent in call-related or n oncall-r elat ed ACW mode during the reporting interval. T his value includes time spent on direct incoming or outgoing c a lls while in ACW. If an agent entered ACW in one interval, but left ACW in an other interval, each interval is credited with ACW time.
FLOW IN — The total number of completed calls that this split received as a coverage point (intraflowed) from another BCMS-measured split, or are call forwarded (interflowed) to this split during the reporting interval. This total does not include calls that are interflowed from a remote switch by means of the Look Ahead Interflow feature. FLOW INs are recorded when a call ends.

If a multiply queued call is answered in a non primary split (that is, a
second or third split), an outflow is recorded to the statistics for the first split, and an in f low and an answer are recorded t o th e s ta tistics for the answering split. For example, suppose there are three splits numbered 1 t hrough 3. A call comes in for split 1, but all agents ar e busy on this split. The call then goes into queue for splits 2 and 3. An agent on split 3 answers the call. In thi s example, an outflow is recorded to the statistics for split 1, and an inflow and an answer are recorded to the statistics for split 3. Th e st atistics for split 2 are unaffected because the call was not answered in this split. This scenario is shown in the following table.

If the call is answered in t he prima ry split, no inflows or outflows are recorded t o the statistics for any split. Splits 2 and 3 record the call as dequeued.
If a call is queued on three splits (for example, splits 1, 2, and 3,
with split 1 being the primary split), then encounters a route-to command that sends the call to another VDN, that queues to different splits (for example, splits 4 and 5), an outflow is recorded to the statistics for split 1. If the call is answered in split 4, an

Similarly, if a multiply queued call routes to another split, an outflow is recorded to the statistics f or the primary split, but no inflow is recorded to the statistics for the routed-to split.
TOTAL AUX/OTHER — The total time that logged-in agents in this split were unavai lable to receive calls during the reporting interval. T his value includes time spent on non-ACD calls while in AUX for this split. This value does not in clude the time agents spent on another split’s calls or in ACW for another split.
Note that a split totals AUX TIME whenever any agent logs into the split and :
Receives a EXTN call while in AUX or AVAIL state
Makes a EXTN call while in AUX or AVAIL state
Hits his/her AUX button
Other
Furthermore, the split report measurement AUX TIME is time-interval base d, since it is not directly related to a ca l l. For example, if an agent is in AUX for any of the previously identified reasons from 9:55 to 10:05, then five minutes is pegged in the 9:00 to 10:00 time interval and five minutes is pegged in the 10:00 to 11:00 time interval.
If you perform these calculations for each agent with in a split and total them — the calculated number should generally be the same as displayed on the split report. However, because of differences in how the agent and split reports handle EXTN calls you may (occasionally) see different numbers between the two reports.

BCMS Split Summary Report
This report replaces (and enhances) the BCMS System Report. Customers wi t h upgr a des from previous DEFINITY releases running BCMS will see that their scheduled list bcms system command is changed automatically to the list bcms summary split command to get this new report.
The BCMS Split Summary Report provides traffic measurement information for a specified group of BCMS splits. Depending on specifics from the command line, the information may be displayed as either a time interval or daily summary. If

This report is similar to the Split Report except tha t thi s r eport prov ides o ne l in e o f data for each split, a nd that includes all data for the specif i ed times. A split does not appear on the report if there is no data for that split. If you specify more than one time period, and data exists for one or more, but not all, of the specified times, the system uses the available data to calculate and display the one-line summary; the system does not identify which agents are not included in the calculations.
Time is always ex pressed in 24-hour format. Start and stop times are optional. Reports always start at the earliest time interval (either hour or half-hour). If no start time is given, the most recent time interval is the default. A stop time requires an associated start time. If no stop time is g iven, then only the last interval of data will be used to calculate the one-line display for each split. If you

This report presents header infor m ation at the top of each page. This information includes the comman d entered to generate the report, the page number of the report, the title of the report, and the time and date the report was generated. If this is a time report and there are more than 10 time intervals, this report is displayed on multiple pages. A daily summary report is displayed on the last page of the report.
TIME/DAY — The time or day interval specified in the command line. Time is always ex pressed in 24-hour format. Start and stop times are optional.
Reports always start at the earliest time interval (either hour or half-hour). If no start time is given, the oldest time interval is the default. A stop time requires an associated start time. If no stop time is given, the last completed time interval (hour or half-hour) is the default. If no start or stop time is given, the report displays data accrued for the previous 24 t im e in tervals.

FLOW OUTs are recorded when a c all ends.
In a vectoring environment, inflows and outflows become a bit more complicated. Consider the following scenarios:
If a multiple queued call is answer ed in a nonprimary split (that is, a
second or third split), an outflow is recorded to the statistics for the first split, and an in f low and an answer are recorded t o th e s ta tistics for the answering split. For example, suppose there are three splits numbered 1 t hrough 3. A call comes in for split 1, but all agents ar e busy on this split. The call then goes into queue for splits 2 and 3. An agent on split 3 answers the call. In thi s example, an outflow is recorded to the statistics for split 1, and an inflow and an answer are recorded to the statistics for split 3. Th e st atistics for split 2 are unaffected because the call was not answered in this split. This scenario is shown in the following table.
Call Answered by Nonprimary Split
Split Pegging
Split 1 Split 2 Split 3
BCMS outflow dequeued inflow answer
If the call is answered in t he prima ry split, no inflows or outflows are recorded t o the statistics for any split. Splits 2 and 3 record the call as not recorded.
If a call is queued on three splits (for example, splits 1, 2, and 3,
with split 1 being the primary split), then encounters a route-to command that sends the call to another VDN, that queues to different splits (for example, splits 4 and 5), an outflow is recorded to the statistics for split 1. If the call is answered in split 4, an answer is recorded t o the statistics for split 4. However, no inflow is recorded to the statistics for split 4. This scenario is shown in the following table.

TOTAL AUX/OTHER — The total time that logged-in agents in this split were unavai lable to receive calls during the reporting interval. T his value includes time spent on non-ACD calls while in AUX for this split. This value does not in clude the time agents spent on another split’s calls or in ACW for another split.
If the call is answered on split 5, an outflow is recorded for the statistics t o split 4, and both an inflow and an answer are recorded to the statistics for split 5. This scenario is shown in the following table.
Split Pegging
Split 1 Split 2 Split 3 Split 4 Split 5
Similarly, if a multiple queued call routes to another split, an outflow is recorded to the statistics f or the primary split, but no inflow is recorded to the statistics for the routed-to split.
A split totals AUX/OTHER TIME whenever any agent logs into the split and:
Receives a EXTN call while in AUX or AVAIL state
Makes a EXTN call while in AUX or AVAIL state
Hits his/her AUX button
Other
Furthermore, the split report measurement AUX TIME is time-interval base d, since it is not directly related to a ca l l. For example, if an agent is in AUX for any of the previously identified reasons from 9:55 to 10:05, then five minutes is pegged in the 9:00 to 10:00 time interval and five minutes is pegged in the 10:00 to 11:00 time interval.
If you perform these calculations for each agent with in a split and total them — the calculated number should generally be the same as displayed on the split report. However, because of differences in how the agent and split reports handle EXTN calls you may (occasionally) see different numbers between the two reports.

BCMS Trunk Group Summary Report

The BCMS Trunk Group Summary Report provides information about BCMS-measured trunk groups. You can sp ecify the trunk groups you want included in the report. The BCMS Trunk Group Report can be used by the ACD administrator and/or manager to monitor use of one or more trunk groups and to determine the optimal number of trunks for the trunk groups. Note that this applies only to trunk groups measured by BCMS.
Th is report is sim ila r to th e BCMS Tr unk Group Report except that the information for a trunk appears on separate lines of the report, with totals of activity for all trunks in the trunk group f o r th e specified time. You can print the report for a certain time period spec ified in either hours or days (up to 7 days).
The report displays only the information that exists and does not identify absent data. If data does not exist for a specified trunk group, the trunk group does not appear on the report. Also, if information does not exist for a portion of the specified time period, the report displays all existing information but does not identify where there is no data. Screen 4-34 shows the BCMS Trunk Group Summary Report for an interval of hours, and Screen 4-35 shows the BCMS Trunk Group Summary Report for a daily interval.
NOTE:
When analyzing this report, keep the following things in mind:
All averages are for completed cal ls only.
Asterisks in a field indicate that the maximum for that field is
exceeded .
A single asterisk at the end of a time or date field indicates that
during the interval, trunk group administration occurred which changed the number of trunks.
