ACD

CXone Routing

Multiple Routing Attributes

Previously, the ability to use more than one routing attribute at the same time was in controlled release in the United States and Australia. In this release, it has become generally available in the United States, Australia, and Europe.

 

routing attribute lets you narrow the pool of agents assigned to the ACD skill who are eligible to receive an interaction. For example, you could require that the agent has a certain license or certification. Multiple routing attributes let you further narrow the pool of eligible agents. For example, you could specify that an agent with the correct skill must also have a certain license and be able to speak a certain language to be eligible to receive the interaction. This gives you more control over which agents an interaction can route to without creating a lot of ACD skills.

 

To set up multiple routing attributes, you need to apply attributes to your agent user profiles. You then use Studio scripts to route interactions to agents based on the ACD skill and the chosen attributes. To avoid narrowing your agent pool so far that interactions become stuck in queue with no matching agents, it is best to use no more than five routing attributes per routing action.

 

You must have dynamic delivery enabled for your system to use multiple routing attributes.

Cxone Attendant

Display Voicemail Message Timestamp in User Time Zone

Previously, voicemail message timestamps in CXone Attendant displayed in the business unit time zone with no option to adjust the setting to reflect the user's local time zone.

 

In this release, you can adjust the voicemail message timestamps so that each user sees them in the time zone configured for their Contact Center user profile. This makes it easier for you and your agents to find voicemails according to the time they were received.

 

To make this change, you must have administrator permissions in CXone Attendant.

Customer Dynamics

Safe Select

Safe Select is an all-in-one campaign management tool. It simplifies compliance around campaigns sent through voice, SMS, and email channels. The process of agents approving each communication also determines the order of records. This is useful for meeting TCPA requirements in certain jurisdictions. Other key features of Safe Select are:

  • Gamification features to keep agents engaged.
  • Detailed and customizable suppression rules for contacts in different states and districts.
  • Omnichannel campaigns that let agents switch from one channel to another.
  • Calls to action to automatically add engaging links and buttons into outbound messages.
  • Payment processing with C3 Payments for quick and secure collections payments.

C3 Payments

C3 Payments is a PCI-compliant payment tool. It offers a system of workflows for contacts to make a one-time secure payment. These workflows can be initiated by an agent and also be used in agentless interactions. They keep the agent out of the PCI scope, which ensures compliance for your business and security for your contacts. Other key features of C3 Payments are:

  • While the agent is not involved in a transaction, they can be notified in their agent application of the progress of the payment.
  • You can keep various systems in sync, like your CRM, ticketing, or billing systems, after payments are made.
  • A mobile SDK to build this functionality into your mobile app.

Textel/Capacity

SMS Expansion

Textel's core SMS product received the following enhancements:

  • Payments Solution: Customers can securely collect payments without exchanging payment information over SMS. A pop-out in the agent application lets the agent initiate the payment. This uses your existing payment merchant, which lets you avoid setting up additional payment infrastructure.
  • SMS Line Intelligence: You can validate all contact phone numbers. This ensures that the numbers support SMS and prevents you from incurring any unexpected messaging costs.
  • Okta MFA Support: If you use Okta as an identity provider, you can use Textel for the SMS component of MFA.
  • Alpha Sender ID: Textel provides alphanumeric sender IDs so you can send texts internationally. This may also help you expand the number of countries you can send texts to.

  • Faster localization and reduced run-time of imports and exports.​
  • More compact output for easier sharing throughout the localization process.​
  • No need for post-import manual reverting.

Back-End Authentication Update for RingCentral

The back-end communication between RingCentral and CXone requires authentication. This validates the communication for security purposes. Previously, this authentication was set up to accept a username and password as valid credentials. In this release, CXone adopted OAuth as the new authentication method. You must work with NICE or your own developers to implement OAuth. The existing username/password method will continue to be supported; however, it will eventually be removed. If you have an integration with RingCentral, plan to update the authentication method. Work with your Contact Center Account Representative on a roadmap and deadline.

Improvements to ASR Grammar Files

This is a late announcement of changes released in the 24.2 release. In 24.2, improvements were made to how ASR grammar files are processed in Contact Center. The following changes ensure high availability of grammar files and reduce the potential for ASR timeout issues:

  • Large grammar files are now proactively cached.
  • Grammar files are now replicated to all ASR servers when they are compiled.

Additionally, file caching has been improved. This reduces intermittent issues that occurred when existing grammar files were updated. This change also addresses failures that occurred when large grammar files were accessed for the first time.
