# for a US call center?

So, after spending two weeks on the phone with different Adobe support techs, and explaining three different times that US area codes have only three numbers, not four, and so dialing my number with an extra numeral in the area code would get them a wrong number, I've decided that if I speak to another Adobe tech support agent who can't speak English, I'm gonna swear off Adobe products... well, not really, but you know what I mean.
Anybody got a phone number for an Adobe tech support center that's actually based in the US and staffed by people who speak English?

Since this has gotten into an "English thing"...
I have spent some time in the US, and one problem I always got into was whenever I ordered water when I went to a restaurant.
I said: May I have a glass of water please (pronouncing the "t" in water as a t),
Answer: Eh, what was that sir???
I said again: A glass of WATER please (still saying water with a "T")
Answer: Eh, sorry sir, but I don't get it...
Then my (then to become) wife said: He wants a glass of water (saying water with a "d" instead of a "t", like wader)
Answer: Oh, of course sir, right away.
Now, if this had happened only once, I would not think to much about it, but it happened more or less EVERY time in EVERY restaurant.
Just got much easier to say: A glass of beer please.

Kudos for a Verizon Call Center rep?

Just wondering where I can go or who I can talk to in order for a certain call center rep to get some deserved recognition. I have filled out customer surveys, called different folks within Verizon Wireless and still no result. I am now beginning to wonder if Verizon really cares about their employees like they say they do.
Here is the situation:
I had decided to leave Verizon Wireless after about 10 loyal years with them. First, when the "new every two" plan was discontinued it was and still is, a very sore spot for me and a lot of other longtime customers. Then, back in 2011, some "genius" decided we customers needed to pay $2 to pay our bill online. What a frigging farce. Hell, verizon, if you want $2 more a month, then raise the rates, be honest with the customer and be done with it. I hope the stupid s.o.b. that tried to implement this idea is now on the unemployment line. How frigging stupid can you be?
I had actually went to the point of purchasing a Straight Talk phone. I had planned on using this phone for a couple of months to see if it would do what I needed as far as phone and text service. I had a problem trying to activate the phone. I was scheduled for a cruise during this time frame and could not finish the activation. While on the cruise I was ranting and raving about Verizon Wireless. Sitting at the same table I was at was a lady who finally identified herself as a call center rep. She was very polite, explained that even though she was on vacation, she still had a responsibility to make any Verizon customer happy and to try to solve the problem, if she could. Now here we are, out in the middle of the ocean, hundreds of miles away from land, no cell phone service there, and this crazy lady is trying to solve my phone problems. Talk about dedication!!!!! End result, she made some suggestions for me to try once I got back home. I did what she suggested. Much to my surprise, everything pretty much fell into place. I added an additional internet line, allowing me to discontinue HughesNet. I also upgraded my phone to an IPhone, which is a really easy phone for us old folks to use.
As a result of the time and dedication this person took, not only did Verizon Wireless continue to keep me as a customer, I actually increased the amount of services I get from them. All because some lady, on vacation, literally in the middle of an ocean, took the time to listen to a crazy old man ranting and raving.
She truly deserves to be recognized not only by me, but by Verizon Wireless. She works out of Huntsville, AL.
Who can I contact to make sure she gets the pat on the back she deserves?

I am really glad to hear such a positive outcome for a possible bad situation, here is contact information that may help you voice your positive feedback.

FTE and volume based billing for a call center operations

hi,
we have a call center handling operations only for intercompany customers (means no external customers). And we want to go for a solution based on two business processes. first one is FTE (Full time equivalent) and the second is volume based billing (based on how many tickets received between a time period).
The solution approach will be to create cost centers to track costs and billing through normal SAP sales order.
Can anybody guide me through the process here with some explanation or documentation related to this?
Thank you all

hi,
this is to inform you that,
create a master contract - 1st step.
create a value and a service contract - 2nd step.
link this two low level contracts to master contracts.
different pricing procedures will be there for value and service contracts each.
the process flow of this is :
1. for value contract : MASTER CONTRACT - SALES ORDER - DELIVERY - BILLING.
2. for service contract : MASTER CONTRACT - SALES ORDER - BILLING.
hope this clears your issue.
please let me know if you have any doubts on the same.

In-app vs 3rd party service purchases for call center

Dear Support
I am creating a service that gives an opportunity for a user to have audio / video consultation with a specialist sitting in my real-world call-center. My service has a web interface as well with the same functionality as the mobile app.
To be able to get a consultation user should buy "consultations" from either mobile app or website. Consultations purchased from web should be available in application for the same user and vice versa. So basically mobile application is just an extension of my business.
Could you please advice should I use in-app or external payment gate in mobile app ?

Then an app isn't necessary according to the App Store Review Guidelines
https://developer.apple.com/appstore/resources/approval/guidelines.html#function ality
2.12 Apps that are not very useful, unique, are simply web sites bundled as Apps, or do not provide any lasting entertainment value may be rejected.
The guideline does say "may" but your reason for having an app seems a bit weak.

Suddenly calls stop coming to call center for 10 min and then it come back

Hi All;
I faced a very special strange problem where we are not used on it since we installed the CVP and IPCCE. While calls were coming to the GW and the IVR responds fine for the customer, then when the customer press 0 to be transferred to the call center, the call disconnected instead of being transffered to the agent, the problem stayed for 10 minute and then the system come back working fine without doing any thing (without doing restart or any other thing). Did anyone face such problem?
The GK model is 3845 and the IOS version is 12.4(15)T4 RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2)
And the GW model is 5350 and the IOS version is 12.4(15)T7 RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc3)
The CCM is 4.2(3), CVP is 3.1(2) and the ICM is 7.2.6
About the network, it was fine and no errors in the logs regarding the network, also the IP Phones existed in a site and the servers (GW, GK, CCM, CVP, ICM) are existed in another site and linked togethor via network link. During the down, the CTI clients were logged in and the IP Phones were logged in (so all registered), that means the network link was fine and did not go down.
I appreciate if anyone can give advises for the reason of this problem and which things to check and from where could be the problem to avoid it from being happenning next time.
Any help?
Regards
Bilal

Bilal,
You may want to look at logs and describe bit more activity. So what happend if you try to re create the scenario and in that 10 minutes period when you make a new incomming call can you track it?
I hope you are not mentioning the activity of just one call.

Call Center Design for 40 agent

Dear All
I want your help for design Call Center Solution include 40 agent ,this is my design but i want advice and comments for any changes should i do ?

Chris is correct about UCCX no longer being supported with CME. It never worked that well in any case!
Another issue from your diagram is that the MCS7845 server is no longer available and UC 10.x software only runs under VMware.
The Business Edition 6000 solution would be the best platform for your requirements.

Iphone 6 screen broken. local authorized service center cannot be reached despite arranging for "schedule a call" session. pls help

iphone 6 screen broken. local authorized service center cannot be reached despite arranging for "schedule a call" session. pls help

They do not know where your phone is yet because it has not had enough time to go through the process yet. I also started to worry when two weeks had passed and my iPhone 5S was still showing not received on the status website. That's when I joined this forum to see if anyone else was having the same problem. What I found out was that some people had been given reduced value for their trade in, but I also found posts from people like myself that were worried that their phone was lost and then came back and posted a week or two later that they had received their gift card.
I decided to chill and give it some time and about a week later my gift card arrived. If it had been for less than the promised amount I would no doubt still be upset and posting about it like the many posts I still see on here on a regular basis.
This is no doubt a popular program for Verizon. I would imagine there have been thousands of phones traded in. There are going to be at least some screw ups in the process. There is no point in getting ahead of yourself and assuming your case will be one of the screw ups unless it already is. Verizon has been consistently posting that it could take 4-6 weeks for processing. You will at some point likely hear the status on your traded-in phone. Patience would not hurt in this case.

Designing a Call Center for 4 agents

Dear All,
I've been assigned a task of designing a Call Center for 4 agents. I am very new to Cisco Contact Center, so I need your help in doing this.
Please find attached the proposal request from the client...
Thanks in advance...
Syed..

Sounds like you want someone to do your job for you, you might not get much luck here as this is a technical forum not pre-sales help line.
In either case look at Cisco Contact Center Express solution which supports up to 400 agents, it integrates tightly with CUCM so you need to ensure customer is already running appropriate version of CUCM. For call recording and workforce management you will need a 3rd party app such as Calabrio and there are others. If you are a Cisco partner and quoting this for customer and have specific questions (not BOM or SOW questions) you can reach out to Cisco PDI helpdesk.
If you have not experience architecting Cisco contact center solution I suggest you look for someone that does and can assist you, and most likely this will not be "free" assistance.
HTH,

Installed base for call center?

Hi,
for the CIC implementation where we are going with typical call center functionality where agents handle incoming calls with inquiries and complaints, do we need the installed base? can anyone comment?
we dont have any returns or warranty for our products
we sell them, if there is a prob, we resend the product again and customer can keep both...
thanks,

Hi,
Installed base is basically required to keep track of products installed at customer place.
If you can verywell identify your customer place where product is installed.
for eg.
if you install 100 printers at say XYZ company, but this 100 printers may be installed at different branches of XYZ company, it may be across different cities.
This information you cannot capture for all the 100 printers sold in any of the masterdata.
Thus you can use installed base to keep a track, how may printers installed at what location.
During incoming call u identify the BP i.e XYZ ask for the location or printer serial number (Use Individual objects in CRM) to track the printer.
If you don't have such complex scenario and also you don't need returns or warranty so u can do without installed base.

How to Integrate Oracle Access Manager 11g with Siebel Call Center 7.8

I need to change the DB authentication to SSO for Siebel Call Center 7.8. I just found a document about integrationg OAM 10g with Siebel 7 (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28196_01/idmanage.1014/b25347/siebel.htm#Siebel). However, because it's mandatory to use OAM 11g, I don't know whether this doc is suitable for Siebel 7.8. In addition, is it the right way to configure Siebel SSO? I know, in this way, I need to install WebGate. Please give me some expertise. Thanks.

This should work as long as your web server and operating system support 11g. There may be some differences in how to set up OAM and the WebGate in 11g versus 10g (that is not my area of expertise), but from the Siebel side the integration is the same. You would pass in the user's Siebel ID (pulled from the LDAP directory) as an HTTP header. Then you just need to tweak a few of the parameters in Siebel:
For the Security Adapter Profile (LDAPSecAdpt most likely) you are using, set:
SingleSignOn = True
TrustToken = HELLO (or whatever value you choose)
In eapps.cfg or eapps_sia.cfg in the virtual directory section for the specific application object manager (e.g. [sales_enu]) set:
UserSpec = SIEBEL_USER (or whatever HTTP header name you set up in OAM)
UserSpecSource = HEADER
SingleSignOn = TRUE
TrustToken = HELLO (or whatever value you selected for the Security Adapter profile TrustToken parameter)
ProtectedVirtualDirectory = /sales_enu
The protected virtual directory will normally be the same as the virtual directory (in this example /sales_enu) unless you are using customer facing applications with anonymous browsing capabilities (for example a catalog that goes to a shopping cart at some point in the process).
Also in the [SWE] section of the eapps.cfg file the IntegratedDomainAuth parameter should be set to False.
Hope this information is helpful.
Best regards,
Stevan

Oracle SOA Integration with Siebel 8.0 Call Center Application

Hi Experts,
I am trying to Integrate Oracle Fusion SOA and Siebel 8.0 and I have been following http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17904_01/doc.1111/e17056/bpel_pm.htm as a reference.
Here is what I have done so far:
Created an Inbound Web service (Account Web Service) by login into Siebel Call Center Application. I was able to generate the WSDL file successfully. This WSDL has following operations :
(a) AccountInsert
(b) AccountQueryByExample
(c) AccountQueryById
If I understand it correctly, this is like any other wsdl file which can be consumed and operations can be invokved by consumers (web service clients)
I have couple of doubts/questions :
(1) Once WSDL is generated by the Siebel Client, it can be used in my BPEL process/composite apps to perform the integration. If this statement is true, why and where do we need Siebel Adapter?
(2) While I was following the online tutorial @ http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17904_01/doc.1111/e17056/bpel_pm.htm , I can see, WSDL was generated by using the Application Explorer (a swing based tool provided by Oracle as a part of Adapter framework). But I have used Siebel Call Center to generate the WSDL file. Which is the standard way of generating the WSDL file?
(3) In the tutorial mentioned above, I can see request and response xsd files (i.e queryWithView_invoke_request.xsd queryWithView_invoke_response.xsd) . No where in the tutorial has mentioned, how these files were created. Are these hand written files by the developer, or it is something that can be created out of the wsdl itself?
(4) Also, there is a .jca file (queryWithView_invoke.jca) which is also being used while configuring the Third Party Adapter. Where does queryWithView_invoke.jca come from? Is it something that is created from Application Explorer?
Would really appreciate if someone can throw lights on these gray areas....
Waiting for an eagerly reply...
Thanks in Advance !

Hi,
If you are talking about configuring the outbound WS , then you need to go to Siebel > Administration-Webservices> Outbound Webservices
Query for webservices there and give the <HOST>:<SOA PORT> in the URL.

FSCM Biller Direct Call Center Payment Log

Hi,
We are using Biller Direct and Biller Direct Call Center for our dealers/customer AR processing.
Biller Direct is used by our Dealers to see their account balance and post payment online through Biller Direct web portal.
Biller Direct Call Center is used by our Account Receivable team to see our dealers account balance and to post payment with authorization from our dealers.
The main question is:
How can we see the deatilpayment log/detail on transaction posted through Biller Direct Call Center? Our AR team needs to identify which user from AR team that perform a specific payment. Please advise.
Is this something that can be setup through XCM or R/3 configuration?
We need to get the detail of "User ID" and "Date & Time" that a payment is done through Biller Direct Call Center.
I tried to look from the document changes on AR line item detail of the billing document that got paid. But, the document changes is only showing that user BD_POOL made the payment posting. The user id is setup in XCM for posting any transaction into R/3.
Appreciate your help in advance.
Thanks,
Markus

Mohit,
Let me try to answer your questions:
u2022 What accounting entries are passed from SAP perspective and at what points in time?
A) SAP will post a CREDIT to the Customer AR item and a DEBIT to a Credit Card Receivable account when the payment is posted in FI. The DEBIT to the Credit Card Receivable account is included in the nightly Settlement run to be sent to the Processor for a deposit request.
u2022 How are charges levied by banks / financial institutions handled or can be handled?
A) There are Processor charges for authorizations and other services such as Fraud checking as well as the INTERCHANGE fee that is a percentage of the Settlement amount. This could be anywhere from 1.5% to 4% of the Invoice amount depending on the type of transaction and the agreement with the Processor.
u2022 How any fees / charges imposed by network processors / clearing houses handled on a transactional basis?
A) The processor will assess and collect these fees, typically on a monthly or daily basis and provide reporting to the Merchant regarding the fees charged.
u2022 Is this something which Standard SAP Config can accommodate and if yes where exactly? If not what custom development route is appropriate?
A) Standard SAP does not have the ability to assist with Settlement reconciliation or recognition/assignment of processing fees. This must be accomplished through Manual postings.
u2022 Does addition of third party providers like pay metric for interface plug-in help in segregating and processing of credit card charges any better?
A) Yes, ISVs such as Paymetric which provide integration between SAP and the processors do provide additional SAP and external reporting and functionality to assist with the reconciliation process and in determining the processing fees.

How to stop Call Center Agents from Moving Headsets around

We are call center with about 200 agents at a time in the building. We go thru headsets like they are candy. But we just got told to no longer use cheap headsets. So we are slowly cycling in the new headsets. So any Ideas on how to keep headsets from moving stations. Our agents destroy headsets anyway, so I don't know how well these new ones are gonna last. They also move keyboards, mice as well. They have very little respect for the equipment and think breaking them is going to give them a new one faster. Let me know what you guys think.
This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

I think you are seeing what is called the Ken Burns Effect. You can change this setting using the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns Tool on the middle toolbar. You can select Fit, Crop, or Ken Burns. Fit will make your photo fit by letterboxing. Crop will make your photo fit by cropping the top and bottom off. Ken Burns allows you to Pan around. You can set the starting and ending rectangles for the pan.
Also, if you go to File/Project Properties you can set the default action for "Initial Photo Placement" to Fint, Crop, or Ken Burns.
