  • 1.  Data through the IVR

    Hi All

    We have added in extra options into our IVR purely for reporting purposes, based on the options they press, we can then make certain assumptions about our customers.

    E.g. X amount have a certain type of car.

    We already use milestones and don't have a CRM currently. Is there a way that other companies are able to report effectively through Genesys without adding in extra IVR options?

    Thanks

    Shauna

    Hi Shauna,

    If you want to collect information about customers via incoming calls I see three options:

    1. create different hotline-numbers for each customer type, if possible. I do not now your business.
    2. collect the data via Wrapup-Codes
    3. build a script where your agents can fill in the desired data. If you define variables as "output" they are written into the participant data of a call. There you can extrakt them from exports.

    Hi Christoph

    Building a script would be a good option, thank you for the idea! If I create the different options as buttons through scripts, how can I get the options selected by the agent to then show in the participant data? 

    Thanks

    Hi Shauna,
    first you will have to define a output-Variable. For example "carType" as "String"-variable with "output" activated. Every value put into that variable will be stored in the participant data.

    For some cases I would suggest a dropdown menue. For that you will have to place a "dropdown" element in the script, choose "carType"(Variable) as "Value" and put your aviable choices under "Options" (from the dropdown menue). Buttons work pretty similar. 
    That should do the trick. The coice made in your "carType"-Dropdown will be stored in the participant data under "carType".

    Brilliant, thank you for this! I'm now able to see the vehicle types in the participant data section

    Do you know how I would go about exporting this data? I have tried using the filters in the interaction view, but not able to find a filter for this!

    Thanks

    Shauna

    At the moment its not possible to filter participant data. This feature is in development or planned for development. Usually I export the whole interaction list and do the analysis elsewhere. Excel for a simple start or a smart data tool. In my company we are using Qlik Sense. Genesys sends an interaction-list every day and we create all needed reports in Qlik.

    When exporting the data into Excel, I still can't find any participant data. Is the only way to do this in the interaction itself currently?

    Hi Shauna,

    For participant data you need the following permission: Reporting > Custom Participant Attributes > view (to export custom participant attributes)

    You also need to enable Custom Attributes and it needs to be processed by the nightly pipeline process: To export associated participant data for conversations, enable Include Custom AttributesThe attribute data is only available for export on conversations processed by an overnight data pipeline: Export data from a view

    Hi Shauna,

    we have a similar use case to one of our orgs where they don't have a crm, and they wanted for an agent to be able to input some data in the conversation, in our case it was a caller type whether its a Customer / Distributor / Retail etc.
    we added a drop down selection as well in the scripts and in order for us to right it to the conversation I created a trigger and run a workflow that will insert the inputted data in the External tag column of the Interactions report. you can use this API "/api/v2/conversations/{conversationId}/tags" or use a common module action on the workflow to update the tag of the conversation. using the tag we can filter the report depending on the selection in the drop down without exporting it.
