  • 1.  Bullseye Ring Number & skills

    Posted 10-20-2022 04:31

    Hello community,

    I need your help with configuring queue bullseye routing by removing skills from routing consideration.
    In the Routing tab, I defined skills to be removed: skill A after 30 seconds, and skill B after next 30 seconds.
    In the Members tab I added users (queue members), and for each user I set the Bullseye Ring Number value (in my case 1, 2 or 3). There is no option not to set Bullseye Ring Number value, neither disable it.

    When inbound flow makes ACD transfer with the skills A and B to the queue, "skill logic" is ignored - if the user is defined with Bullseye Ring Number = 1, it receives call immediately, no matter which skills it has.

    How can I configure bullseye routing that takes into account skills, and ignores the Bullseye Ring Number parameter?

    Thanks,

    Irina

    Hello Irina,

    Bullseye Routing expands agent selection as it travels through the rings. Best practice would be to consider skill selection and ring assignment as both work together in that you should set the expected ring assignments to agents who fulfill the skill set required at that ring. I believe there is no way to bypass the ring assignment.

    Running by your scenario - agents with both skills A and B should be assigned to ring 1, agents with skill B only should be assigned to ring 2, and all other members of the queue assigned ring 3. The evaluation method chosen also plays a part in the logic. For your scenario you should definitely avoid the Disregard skills, next agent option.

    Hello Nico,

    thank you for your answer.

    Can you please clarify the following moments:

    1. At the last step I want to choose any queue member, why it is not recommended to set the Disregard skills, next agent option in this case? 
    2. When the inbound flow makes ACD transfer to the queue with bullseye routing, is it still needed to pass Skill A and Skill B to ACD transfer action? Or it is enough to define Bullseye Ring Number value for each member? 


    Thanks,

    Irina

    Regarding the second question you still need to apply skills on the Transfer Action, otherwise it will only ring agents based on the Bullseye Ring Number.

    Hello Irina,

    You are most welcome!

    1. When you reach the last ring it has already disregarded all the skills deemed to be important for this queue. So in effect, at this point the system is really just looking for next available queue member. This was not made as clear in my initial response, but the reason for the recommendation is because the chosen evaluation method is applied at every ring level and not just when the process is at the last ring.

    2. Seconding Jan's response. Thank you, Jan!

    Jan and Nico, thank you very much for the explanation.

    Now I better understand how it works, but I still have one question.

    Suppose the evaluation method is set to All skills matching, but by mistake, for user with only skill B Bullseye Ring Number is set to 1.

    What happens when inbound flow makes ACD transfer to the queue with skills A and B? Does this user receive call immediately, or after 30 seconds (when the skill A is removed)?

    I mean, which parameter has higher priority, Bullseye Ring Number or skills?

    Thanks,

    Irina

    Hello Irina,

    If you have Best Available Skills or All Skills Matching set it would wait until only skill B to be required.
    Agents from previous rings are included in each step on Bullseye Routing.
