Contact Center Readiness Requirements
Cisco Unified CCX
-
CCX should be up and running to run surveys after incoming calls.
-
Since PCS integrates with CCX over custom Java classes, CCX services need to be restarted after loading the PCS JAR file in CCX.
-
To read the prompts list from CCX, we need admin user credentials to access UCCX Configuration APIs to fetch the list of prompts.
Cisco Unified CCE
-
Need Prompt file location to be shared with PCS for reading voice prompts
-
Access to the CCE Database for reading call data from the call center (the agent name, the customer information, etc.)
Time Synchronization Requirements
If the system dates and times are not synchronized, the system can produce unpredictable results. Therefore, the EF applications and Cisco Contact Center should have their time zone and date/time properly configured, according to the geographic region and must be synchronized.
To configure the time zone, please see the instructions from the hardware or software manufacturer of the NTP server. The application servers should be synchronized. This synchronization should be maintained continuously and validated regularly. The Network Time Protocol (NTP) V 4.1+ is recommended for security reasons.
