Reporting for Contact Center
Reporting for Contact Center
Overview
Reporting for Contact Center (RCC) is an application that allows a Contact Center Supervisor to view and record real time and historical data relating to Contact Center operation and Agent behaviour. RCC is optional component of Intelligent Contact Center.
Reporting for Contact Center has the flexibility to provide reporting information from individual skillsets and agents, right through to any combination of Agents and Skillsets.
Information can be displayed in either Real Time or Historical report formats. Real Time information can also be displayed on multiple colour Wallboards
and ipView SoftBoards. Reporting for Contact Center requires one PC to be used as a Web Host PC.
Any machine on the same network as the Web Host PC can access RCC by using Internet Explorer. Providing that a user has the correct logon credentials, any function can be performed from any PC.
NOTE: One PC on your network should be nominated as the Web Host PC. Only install the Reporting for Contact Center application software onto this single PC. All other PCs on your network from which Users wish to access the Real Time Screens, Historical Reports or the Reporting for Contact Center user interface must be equipped with Internet Explorer.
Reporting for Contact Center provides support for thirteen different languages. This allows RCC users to use RCC in their preferred language. It also means that from an English RCC user, information displayed on each of the wallboards can all be in a mixture of the languages. The thirteen languages are UK English, North American English, French, Canadian French, Latin American Spanish, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Dutch, German, Italian, Norwegian, Danish and Swedish.
There are two types of users that can be configured in RCC: Users and Administrators. Users can be allowed to configure Wallboards and SoftBoards and view real time and historical data but only Administrators have full control over Users, Skillset assignments and fundamental settings for RCC.

Recommended Minimum PC Specification for Reporting for Contact Center Web Host
 IBM™ Compatible PC  Microprocessor - Intel® PentiumTM IV (or equivalent) minimum Microprocessor Speed – 1.7 GHz minimum Memory - 512 MB minimum (more memory should result in enhanced
performance, for example when generating reports)
Network Interface Card TCP/IP protocol SVGA display Mouse (or other Windows®-compatible pointing device) Web Server – Internet Information Services 5.0 or later Microsoft Internet Explorer version 6.0 Service Pack (SP1), or later Hard Disk
o RCC application installation: 1.4GB o Recommended storage space for Historical data: 4GB
Historical Report Database
RCC stores Historical Report information in a standard Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express database. If required, the SQL Server Express database can be analysed through 3rd party reporting packages. However, software development will have to be performed by the customer to achieve this.
Note: The database will grow through time and, if the diagnostic logging option is turned on, the log files will require extra disk space.
Operating System Compatibility
Reporting for Contact Center is verified for correct operation on the following operating systems:
NN40011-024 Issue 1.2 BCM Rls 6.0 9
Reporting for Contact Center
Note: Reporting for Contact Center installation is supported on a single PC installation per BCM, and is not intended to run on Cluster Servers like those supported by Windows 2003 Enterprise.
Note: Please ensure that any Windows XP installations are fully updated to Service Pack 3. Older versions may become unstable during the RCC installation process.
Installation Pre-requisites
Before you install Reporting for Contact Center software, you must:
Ensure that Intelligent Contact Center is keycoded and configured. Ensure that the Reporting for Contact Center keycode has been
applied to the BCM.
Ensure that the Contact Center platform is connected to, and is
operational on, the network to which the Reporting for Contact Center Web Host PC is connected.
Ensure that the full suite of Microsoft Internet Information Services is
installed and operational on the Web Host PC, and that the Default Web Site is enabled.
As the Reporting for Contact Center installation includes Microsoft .Net
Framework 2.0 ensure that Microsoft .Net Framework 1.2 is uninstalled from the Web Host PC before installing Reporting for Contact Centre. This is because Microsoft .Net Framework 1.2 is not compatible with Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express which is installed during the Reporting for Contact Center installation.
The following versions of .Net Framework are compatible with RCC:
1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 3.0, 3.5.
Reporting for Contact Center
Checking the .Net Framework Version
Use the following procedure to check and/or uninstall the incompatible versions of .NET Framework installed on the Web Host PC:
1. From the Start menu, select Settings followed by Control Panel.
2. Double-click on Add or Remove Programs.

4. Follow the InstallShield Wizard instructions to uninstall the program.
5. If the .Net version is compatible with RCC, do not click the
Change/Remove button, and simply shut down the Add or Remove Programs window.
Installing Internet Information Services
IIS is required to be installed on the PC that is to be the Web Host PC. The following steps are instructions of how to successfully install this Microsoft Windows component.
Note: This example uses Windows XP Professional. Other Operating Systems will differ in process for installing IIS. Please consult the Reporting for Contact Center Setup and Operations Guide for further information on installing IIS on other supported Operating Systems.

Reporting for Contact Center
9. If the installation is successful, a window similar to the one below will
appear. This window also contains useful information regarding your Internet Information Services.

If you see a Page Cannot be Displayed screen, re-install the Internet Information Services and reboot the Web Host PC.
Note: It is recommended that you ensure your Web Host PC Internet Information Services installation is as secure as possible. Generally, a secure installation involves loading security patches and/or service packs for Internet Information Services and for the operating system of the Web Host PC. These patches and service packs are available free of charge by Microsoft. Contact your network administrator for further advice.

Firewall Considerations - Port Numbers used by Reporting for Contact Center
The list below gives all the port numbers used by Reporting for Contact Center on the Web Host PC:
Port 80 – this is the standard port used by the Web Server (the Web
Host PC) for Internet Information Services.
Port 8088 – used for the Reporting Server in the Business
Communications Manager.
Ports 3500-35xx – used by ipView SoftBoard to listen for incoming data
and to echo to other wallboards. ipView SoftBoard can use a number of ports upwards of 3500 dependant on configuration (refer to the ipView SoftBoard guide for more information)
Port 6010 – used for the Reporting for Contact Center Real Time
(RCCRT) Server.
Port 6011 – used for the Reporting for Contact Center Reporting
(RCCRPT) Server.
If these ports are blocked by firewalls, information may not be transferred between the BCM, Web Host PC, Wallboards/SoftBoards, and/or PCs on the network browsing to the Web Host PC.
Installing Reporting for Contact Center
