    Contact Expert v7.4 Release Notes

    Release news, recommendations and up-to-date information about this version of Contact Expert

    This version was released on 17th May 2022.

    Important

    Cumulative Update 5 was released on 1st of March 2023

    Notes and Recommendations

    This document describes all enhancements and bugs fixed in the above product version. In addition, all major known issues not yet addressed are also listed in this document.

    Versioning and Hotfix releasing Strategy

    Starting from v5.9, Contact Expert version numbers have the following format: vMajor.Minor

    Major Version

    The first number represents the major version. When this number is increased, a new major version is introduced. Major versions contain significant changes in the product such as an extensive set of significant new features, new architecture or completely redesigned software components. Consequently a new major version might be backward incompatible with the previous major version (but not necessarily).

    Minor Version

    The second number represents the minor version which is increased when less significant features are added to the product.

    Cumulative Hotfixes

    In addition to minor versions, Geomant also releases cumulative hotfix packages to provide quick fixes to serious problems that should not wait until the next minor release. These hotfix packages are tied to a specific minor version and contain the fixes of all the previous hotfix packages for this minor version.

    Version Compatibility and Upgrade Strategy

    When upgrading, consider the difference ("distance") between the old and the new version. If the upgrade is within the same major version then we are talking about a minor version upgrade. If the distance between the old and new version overlaps at least one major version, then this is a major version upgrade.

    Minor versions are always backward compatible. Example

    • v7.0 - major version (architectural changes & new features & bug fixes; not compatible with v6.x)
    • v7.1 - minor version (new features & bug fixes; compatible with v7.x)

    A clean and a cumulative upgrade installation media is created for each major and minor version, so every package contains the fixes and feature additions of all previous releases. However Geomant proceeds to perform exhaustive compatibility tests with the last 2 minor versions only, therefore if the distance between your 6.x version and the currently available latest 6.x is greater than 2 minor versions, then you might need gradual, step-by-step upgrades.

    Also, since major versions usually bring architectural changes that make them backward incompatible, the old version must be completely uninstalled and the new version must be installed from a clean installation package. An upgrade install is typically not usable in such cases. When a major upgrade (thus a clean install) is due, the system typically have accumulated a number of previous minor upgrades all of which must be uninstalled individually starting from the most recent.

    Or, as an alternative, instead of uninstalling all the existing upgrades, the recommended way is reinstalling Contact Expert on a clean operating system (restored from a previous snapshot or installed newly).

    Note

    Client/Server Version Compatibility

    Please note that if you upgrade the Contact Expert server components to a new minor version, all Contact Expert agent client applications are highly recommended to be updated also at the same time. Older clients may not work with a new minor version of Contact Expert server.

    However, the maintenance version of the server and the client does not matter as long as they have the same minor version. In other words, each client having the same minor version as the server's minor version is always compatible with the server, regardless of the maintenance version.

    Note

    Database Version Compatibility

    Contact Expert databases are not removed or altered during a minor upgrade or uninstall process, therefore all the configuration data, except for the ones entered during an installation, are left intact. This includes all the business related data such as agent, campaign, contact and historical data.

    Since a major upgrade typically contains database schema changes which might cause potential data loss, Contact Expert databases will need to be updated to reach compatibility with the new major version to be installed. This can be achieved by using the SQL scripts from the upgrade installation package of the concerned major version.

    Microsoft Lync/Skype for Business Version Compatibility

    Please review our CE Compatibility Matrix with SfB/Lync Platform on Microsoft Lync and Skype for Business support.

    OnCall IVR Version Compatibility

    Please review our official statement on OnCall IVR Engine and OnCall IVR Designer compatibility matrix.

    Highlights

    Enhanced administration functionalities:

    Campaign expiration reminder
    This feature provides visual indicator on the CE Portal about the expiring campaigns. Alert is raised and the given campaign is highlighted in the list when the end time is approaching or elapsed. The expired campaigns are put to Design state automatically, and their state can not be changed back to Running until the end time is set to a date in the future.
    Retain agent for running campaigns
    CE offered the possibility to retain agents for a given skill for inbound calls, when agents were retained they could not get outbound tasks. Now, this functionality is enhanced and the agents can be retained for inbound calls only if the campaign is running and the dial rule allows calls to be routed to the given campaign. It only retains the agent if the campaign and dial rule associated with the skill is opened.
    Agent Auto Answer option by policy
    This feature gives control over the Auto Answer option based on the defined configuration in the policy by the supervisors.
    Separate permissions of quick dial and customer lookup
    New permission is introduced to control if the agent should be limited to have the quick dial only or the lookup function as well.
    Central administration of consultant configuration
    This feature adds value to CE for Avaya customers so that they can administer the transfer destination centrally. Addressbook Service supports phone numbers like email addresses. Agent App's consultant form provides integration to Addressbook Service. Addressbook Service's URL is added to the agent policy.
    Enhanced contact import functions
    The following contact import options are available: (1) Import Rule – It specifies what to do with contacts which exist in the import file only. Options: Do nothing, Append (2) Update Rule – It specifies what to do with contacts that exist in the database only. Options: Do nothing, Activate (contact), Activate (contact, phone), Inactivate, Delete (3) Merge Rule – It specifices what to do with contacts that exist both in the import file and the database. Options: Do nothing, Activate (contact), Activate (contact, phone), Inactivate, Delete, Append, Replace
    Scheduled Tasks menu date filter
    Date/time interval filter is available for the Scheduled Tasks menu.

    Enhanced agent application functionalities:

    New contact creation based on the phone number
    This feature enables the agents to create contact from lookup faster to save time on administration and reducing the possibility of errors. CE validates if a contact already exists with the given phone number. It shows the matched results for a given phone number. Customer data entered in the search form is saved over to the contact creation form. The phone number is set to active by default. Once the new contact is saved, CE offers the possibility of calling the customer with a single click.
    Enable using computer keyboard input to keypad
    The agents can use their computer keyboard for entering numbers. The keyboard inputs are forwarded to the CE keypad.
    Comment field on Lookup Task history page
    Comment field is added and available on Lookup Task history page.

    Enhanced reporting functionalities:

    Agent status monitor report filtered by skills
    This feature allows supervisors to lookup agent statuses based on the specified skills. The new filtering option is available for the real time monitor, operational and historical reports.
    Agent status monitor report with contact/task IDs
    Extend real-time Agent Status Monitor report to provide all the unique IDs (contactId, sduId & conversationId) which identify a task and contact when an agent is busy. These fields need to be displayed as Additional Details on the CE Portal.

    Other improvements
