Overview

Introduction

The Workforce Management (WFM) InstallShield Wizard guides you through the
WFM installation. The installation includes two sets of components:

■ Process components, including the WFM services

■ Transaction components, including BIRT, Omnis, and Apache Tomcat

NOTE: Both sets of components must be installed on the same
server.

After you have successfully installed WFM into a properly-configured Cisco Unified
Workforce Optimization (WFO) environment, the basic functionality of WFM is
ready to configure for your use. Users access WFM through a web browser.

For information about configuring WFM, see the following document:

■ Workforce Management Administrator User Guide for Cisco Unified

Workforce Optimization

Installation Guide

Features of Workforce Management

WFM is an industry-leading software solution for multi-site staff forecasting and
scheduling.

Call center managers can use WFM to complete the following tasks.

■ Develop a schedule forecast (by day or period)

■ Manage special events

■ Prepare schedules (summary and individual)

■ Manage day-to-day schedule-related activities (Intraday)

■ Approve time-off requests and shift changes

■ Generate productivity, performance and historical reports

■ Create agent report cards

■ Develop schedules for multiple sites

■ Manage scheduling for offices in different time zones

■ Manage key performance indicators

■ Manage real-time adherence

■ Monitor and adjust the current schedule for a team from a dashboard

Agents can also use WFM to access the system to see their own schedules and
performance indicators.

8 October 2007

Workforce Management Services

Workforce Management Capture Service

The Workforce Management Capture Service watches for historical call data reports
created by the Workforce Management OOC (Odysoft ODBC Collector) Service. When
the Workforce Management Capture Service detects a new report, it sends a
compilation request to the Workforce Management Compile Service.

Workforce Management Compile Service

The Workforce Management Compile Service listens for compilation requests from
the Workforce Management Capture Service. The Workforce Management Compile
Service can compile historical data for agents, services or teams by day, week, month,
or year, for use in forecasting and scheduling.

Workforce Management Services

Workforce Management OOC Service

Every 30 minutes, the Workforce Management OOC Service collects all of the call data
for the preceding 30 minutes from the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express
(Unified
Workforce Management OOC Service then writes the call data into historical reports.

High availability (HA) configurations can use multiple data sources. The Workforce
Management OOC Service always connects to the first node, however, and fails over
to the second node only if the first connection fails.

CCX) database using the Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) interface. The

Workforce Management Request Service

The Workforce Management Request Service listens for user requests to generate
forecasts and schedules.

Workforce Management RTE Service

The Workforce Management RTE (Real Time Engine) Service uses the Advanced
Contact Management Interface (ACMI) protocol to get real-time information on agent
states from the Unified CCX server. WFM displays agent state information in the
Supervisor Adherence dashboard.

October 2007 9

Installation Guide

Workforce Management Sync Service

The Workforce Management Sync Service connects to the Unified CCX node using the
ACMI-based synchronization process. The Workforce Management Sync Service
retrieves and processes configuration data, such as contact service queue (CSQ)
configurations, team configurations, and agent configurations.

Tomcat Service

The Tomcat Service enables desktop clients to access WFM.

10 October 2007

What’s New in This Version

WFM 8.2 includes the following new features.

Communications Manager Express (Unified CME)

■ Cisco Unity server

To install WFM, you need the following information.

■ WFM server IP address

CCX team

■ WFM SQL Server database username and password you used in "Creating a

SQL Server Login for WFM" on page 25, as well as the instance name you

used in "Installing Microsoft SQL Server 2005" on page 24 (if you did not use
the default instance)

■ Unified CM IP address and port number

■ CTI server IP address and port number (see "Port Usage" on page 13)

■ Quality Management (QM) server IP address, if you have QM

■ Unified CCX database IP addresses for Side A and optionally Side B, as well as

the instance name

You also need the following information for Active Directory.

■ Active Directory distinguished names (and ports, if you are not using the

default port)

■ Active Directory paths to the users

■ Common names (CN) from the Active Directory account and password

28 October 2007

Upgrading from WFM 8.0 to WFM 8.2

NOTE: Before you upgrade, consider running the WFM 8.0 version of
WFM Configuration Setup so you can make a note of the settings you
used when you installed WFM
maintained during the upgrade process. You will need to enter them
again after you install WFM

To upgrade from WFM 8.0 to WFM 8.2:

1. Back up your SQL Server WFM 8.0 database using SQL Server backup tools.

NOTE: The SQL Server WFM 8.0 database is not removed during the
upgrade process. However, backing up your database is
recommended in case a problem occurs during the upgrade.

2. Uninstall WFM 8.0. For instructions, see "Removing WFM" on page 55.

Configuring WFM

To configure WFM, run WFM Configuration Setup, which consists of the steps below.

■ Step 1. Specifying the WFM Server Address (page 34)

■ Step 2. Specifying WFM Database Access (page 35)

■ Step 3. Configuring WFM Administrator Access (page 36)

■ Step 4. Configuring Active Directory (page 37)

■ Step 5. Specifying the Unified CCX Database (page 38)

■ Step 6. Specifying the CTI Server (page 39)

■ Step 7. Specifying the Unified CM Server (page 41)

The WFM Configuration Setup utility has two modes: initial mode and update mode.
The utility is launched automatically in initial mode after the WFM installation finishes.
After you configure all of the required parameters and exit WFM Configuration Setup,
the utility starts the Workforce Management services. If you need to change certain
configuration settings later, you can run the utility again manually in update mode.

Configuring WFM

NOTE: When you are running WFM Configuration Setup in update
mode, you cannot modify WFM Database settings or enable/disable
Active Directory. To change those settings, you must re-install WFM.

If you need to manually launch WFM Configuration Setup, see "Launching WFM

Configuration Setup Manually" below for instructions. Otherwise, skip ahead to
"Step 1. Specifying the WFM Server Address" on page 34.

NOTE: If an error message appears while running WFM Configuration
Setup, correct the problem and try again. For more information about
an error, see Cisco Workforce Management Service Information.

NOTE: WFM Configuration Setup runs only on the WFM server.

Launching WFM Configuration Setup Manually

NOTE: If WFM Configuration Setup is already running, skip ahead to

"Step 1. Specifying the WFM Server Address" on page 34.

To launch WFM Configuration Setup manually:

1. On the WFM server, navigate to C:\Program Files\Cisco\WFO_WFM\bin.

Capturing Historical Call Data

Overview

The WFM forecasting feature uses your contact center’s historical call data to
estimate future call volume and scheduling requirements. The Workforce
Management OOC Service retrieves data automatically every 30 minutes, starting
from the time you installed WFM.

If you want to use historical call data from the time before you installed WFM, you
must complete the procedures in this chapter to capture the data manually.

For more information about the forecasting feature, see Workforce Management
Administrator User Guide for Cisco Unified Workforce Optimization.

NOTE: You must complete the procedures described in this
chapter immediately after you install WFM.

NOTE: There is a 25-character limit on team names in WFM.
Team names that are longer than 25 characters will not be
imported from Unified
procedures in this chapter, verify that all Unified
names are 25 or fewer characters in length.
