from ProCall Voice Services Version 2403.0

By default, ProCall Voice Services support the creation and configuration of hunt groups/call groups to which subscribers (agents) can log on and off.
Callers are then not answered first, but are immediately put through to the registered subscribers.

If the call is placed on hold, the caller is accepted and kept on hold until a registered subscriber answers the call.

A queue cannot currently be set up completely via the configuration in UCServer, but can be set up for the system by estos support if required.

Scope/options of the waiting loop in the ProCall Voice Services

  1. Login/logout of agents (participants)
  2. Time control/working hours with announcement or voice mailbox
  3. Specify the number of callers on hold.
    Further callers receive a busy signal.
  4. Callers remain on hold until they are connected or hang up.
  5. If no agent is logged on to the waiting loop, the caller is forwarded to a defined number.
  6. The following options are available for distributing the calls:
    1. Parallel
      The call is delivered to all free agents at the same time
    2. Longest time-out
      The call is transferred to the agent who has not had a call for the longest time.
  7. After answering the call, a "welcome announcement" can be played. The standard music on hold is then played.
  8. Every 20 seconds, the caller is informed of their current waiting position.
