Issue 03 (02) Upgrading from Call Center Reporting to Reporting for Call Center
Introduction
Upgraded Product Architecture
Nortel Networks Reporting for Call Center has undergone several major changes from previous
versions of Nortel Networks Call Center Reporting 2.5/3.0/3.5. The following sections list some
main differences between the upgraded architecture and the previous versions.
For a full description of the upgraded features of Nortel Networks Reporting for Call Center,
refer to the Reporting for Call Center Setup and Operations Guide.
Upgraded Browser-Based Interface
Nortel Networks Reporting for Call Center is a reporting tool for the Call Center. It has a
browser-based interface, visually similar to the Call Pilot Manager. As with the Call Pilot
interface, it is accessed from an Internet Explorer browser session.
Upgraded Web Host PC software
Nortel Networks Reporting for Call Center has a single software installation on one Personal
Computer (PC). This PC is the Web Host PC, which functions similarly to the Master PC in the
former Nortel Networks Call Center Reporting 2.5/3.0/3.5 streams.
The Web Host PC stores the historical statistical databases. It is connected to the Call Center to
obtain the historical statistical information and Real Time screen information.
The wallboards are also driven from the Web Host PC.
Upgrade! No Multiple Client software to install
In the Nortel Networks Reporting for Call Center streams, the customer had to install ‘Multiple
Client’ software onto other PCs to view the Real Time screens or Reports.
With Nortel Networks Reporting for Call Center, the users of those other PCs use Internet
Explorer to browse back to the Web Host PC to access the Real Time screens and Reports.
No Client software is now required for the other PCs.
Upgrade! No Upload of Call Center Configuration
In the Nortel Networks Call Center Reporting 2.5/3.0/3.5 streams, the customer had to upload the
Call Center configuration to view the Agent, Line, and Skillset names in the Reports and Real
Time screens. If the Call Center configuration was modified, the Configuration Upload step had
to be performed again.
Nortel Networks Reporting for Call Center automatically obtains the information it needs for the
Real Time screens and Reports from the Call Center, and it does not need to store a copy of the
Call Center configuration.

No Upload Configuration step is required in the configuration and maintenance of the Nortel
Networks Reporting for Call Center software.
Can the old Master PC be used as the Web Host PC?
If the PC hardware and operating system meet the minimum specifications, then the answer is
Yes. See below, Can the upgraded software co-reside with the old software?.
Do I have to remove the old Nortel Call Center Reporting 2.5, 3.0, or 3.5 software?
No, but you can if it is no longer needed. See the following section, Can the upgraded software
co-reside with the old software?.
Can the upgraded software co-reside with the old software?
None of the Nortel Networks Call Center Reporting 2.5/3.0/3.5 software is required for the
operation of the upgraded Nortel Networks Reporting for Call Center software.
However, the customer may choose to retain the Nortel Networks Call Center Reporting
2.5/3.0/3.5 software to allow them to review the historical reports that are stored on their old
system.
Leaving the Nortel Networks Call Center Reporting 2.5/3.0/3.5 Master or Multiple Client
software on the PC that will be used as the Web Host PC does not affect the operation of Nortel
Networks Reporting for Call Center.
The two different applications can co-reside on the same PC with no interaction.
Installing Nortel Networks Reporting for Call Center on a PC on which Nortel Networks Call
Center Reporting 2.5/3.0/3.5 is already installed does not affect the operations of either
application.
Note: If the Nortel Networks Call Center Reporting 2.5/3.0/3.5 software is configured to power
any IP wallboards that Nortel Networks Reporting for Call Center is going to power,
remember to remove them from the Nortel Networks Call Center Reporting 2.5/3.0/3.5
configurations. Otherwise, both sets of software try to power the wallboards, which results
in the wallboard display alternating between the two sets of data from the two different
applications.
Note: The specification of the hardware used as the Master PC for the Nortel Networks Call
Center Reporting 2.5/3.0/3.5 software might not be sufficient to support the Nortel
Networks Reporting for Call Center software. See the following section, Minimum PC and
Operating System Requirements.
