  • 1.  Does anyone have any Naming Convention "Best Practices"

    Soon we'll be moving our Engage platform to Cloud, and I was wondering if anyone had any naming convention best practices? 

    We'll have many Divisions, and 1000s of Queues, Skills, Groups, etc.  So looking for something to help keep it organized.

    Such as: 

    • Including Division name in Queue name or Skill name, etc.? 
      Just thinking it could quickly help to know which Division it belongs to.
    • Is it helpful to indicate the object type by including something in its name? (i.e.  Customer_Support_Q vs Customer_Support_SK)
      Thinking this could be helpful in various logs
    • Character limit so its name isn't cutoff in various views?
      Usually this is much less than the actual limit.

    • Prompt naming convention to help segregate IVR prompts from Music on Hold, and Outbound prompts, etc.

    Or anything else that you wished you would have done differently?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Tony,

    Do you have a naming convention you currently use?  Maybe others in the community can share what naming conventions they use and you could see if that helps

    Hi Tony, 

    Regarding configuration objects like queues, schedules, etc., you can filter them by division. Therefore, including the division in the object names doesn't seem necessary.

    Additionally, you can assign permissions to certain users so that they only see the configuration objects relevant to their division. This way, supervisors will not be able to view any objects that don't belong to their division.
