  • 1.  Use Campaigns with Skills

    Posted 03-17-2020 07:52
    Hi Community,

    Is there a way to use campaigns with skill functionality?

    If I want a campaign or contact to be managed by a user, registered on the reference queue, who has a defined skill (to be understood as the transfer to acd for inbound calls) is It possible?

    Thanks

    There is some information in this article on how to route outbound calls based on skills:

    https://help.mypurecloud.com/articles/configure-rule-actions/

    You have to set up a Pre-call Rule which sets the skill(s) based on a condition.

    I use a Skill column in my call list to designate which skill should be applied for a particular contact:

    Thanks George, this is interesting

    Is it also taken into account for initiating the call?
    in the sense: does the call start only if there is an agent in the queue who has that skill?

    Thanks

    No. Skills-based dialing (placing calls only for skills that have available agents) is not a feature of Genesys Cloud.

    UPDATE Feb 7, 2024:

    There are now 2 Ideas. Phase 1 and Phase 2.

    Phase 1 for Preview/Progressive campaigns is In Development

    Phase 2 for Power/Predictive campaigns is in Upcoming Development

    It only has 15 votes so far, so it is not a high priority.

    hello George, thanks for this idea,

    there is something unclear regarding the Route Call Based on Skills, in the article it says that it route the call to agent with "best matching skills", this term "best matching skills", is this Equivalent to the Evaluation method "Best available skills" on the queue?

    Thanks and best regards, Shahar.

    The Evaluation Method (All skills matching/Best available skills/Disregard skills) is set on the Queue, not at the Campaign level. Once you assign skills to the interaction using a Rule, the queue config takes over for routing. Thus it is possible to assign skills using a Rule but have them disregarded by the Queue configuration. Be careful with that :-)

    When we initially moved to Genesys, the original design involved outbound campaigns linked to skills, with each campaign having it's own skill.  Our high volume of campaigns meant it used a lot of line resources which led to a lot of dead air/no connections and Not Responding happening.  We decided to just use the outbound campaigns running through a signal queue based on the type of campaign it is.
