New Features
*Add CLI to Text To Speech. Caller ID can now be used in Text-2-Speech elements on IVRs. By adding the fillpoint {{call.callerid}} to the text to speech element, the system will read back the customers number as part of the message. E.g. 'Thank you for calling. The number you called on is {{call.callerid}}, this is the number we will call you back on.'
*Dashboards & Wallboards - CTU Widget Resizing. The CTU Widget can now be resized and displayed in a grid format, rather than just a list.
*New Agent Inbound Report. This report gives you information pertaining to each inbound skill queue, displaying call, success and productivity statistics for each agent within each skill queue.
*New Drop Rate report. New report which shows historical drop rates for previous days. We have created a single report to review drop calls on a campaign basis, day by day with an average over the time period. The report also provides all the variables needed in the OFCOM drop call calculation.
*Minimum Ring Time for Preview Calls. New option added to CTI plan for minimum ring time on manual dial, preview and callback calls. This has been added to stop agents closing manual dial, preview and callback calls off early to comply with OFCOM's 15 second minimum ring time rule.
*Auto focus for agents when in wrap and not ready. New option added to Queues tiles within Web Agent to trigger a chrome plugin notification to force the browser to the front of the screen. Some users only go ready for calls when there is a call in queue as part of their process and won't necessarily have the Web Agent visible on screen at all times as they may be working on other things. Previously this would mean they may miss an alert. By adding an extension to chrome and enabling the new feature on the widget, the Web Agent browser window will automatically be brought forward with each alert. Please see the guide for further information.
New statistic added to Stats Widget and Configurable Grids. 'Managing Callback Time' & 'Managing Callback Time %' have been added to dashboard Live Stats and Configurable Grids for Campaigns, Teams & Users.
Record history recording download option. A button to download call recordings has been added to the record history dialog box (can be removed via permissions where required).

Reporting
Changes;
Agent Attendance. Added column for Man Hours + Active Break. The report details these figures separately but we have added a combined column should you use this for your outsourcers who use these values for billiable hours to clients.
TIP - Active breaks can be used for other reasons such as classing training or coaching as productive man hours rather than a break, giving you a better representation of productivity for your agents.
Agent Data Usage Weekly. Changed the format of columns from decimal to whole number for the first three columns.
Agent Status Report. Change to column title from ‘Login Time Total’ to ‘Man Hours Total’.
Break Report. 'Average total break per day' changed to be 'per user' rather than across teams. 'Avg total break time per day' has been changed to 'Avg total break time per user' in the top half of the report for clarity.

Improvements;
