Contact Expert v7.6
BI Schema
The BI Schema represents the SQL database objects created to accumulate and present raw historical data to the Power BI platform. The structure is fairly complex and requires the clear understanding of various states, events and workflows happening in the system to be able to utilize the data in the reports. The following definitions are used in this article:
Interaction – a voice call, email or chat message that was arriving to or initiated from Contact Expert. It has an original direction (started as inbound or outbound). It might have traversed multiple queues if it overflew e.g. due to some queue limits. It might have landed at zero, one or more agents depending whether it was abandoned in queue (for inbound), transferred by an agent to another one, etc.
Interaction Session or Segment – one portion or 'leg' of an Interaction. For example if an inbound voice call spent time in a queue and then got transferred to an agent who took and eventually closed it off without a callback, then it was a single segmented interaction having a single session. If this agent would have decided to transfer it to another agent, then this transferred call would be a second segment of the same interaction. Similarly, if the first agent would have filed a callback before closing the call, the callback session initiated automatically at a later due time would again be an additional segment or session of the same interaction. Task is also used to refer to more or less the same thing.
Primary session – since an interaction might often accumulate more than one session, it becomes important to designate the one where a customer was involved.
For further reading about the various states in Contact Expert please visit the following articles:
Session ID and Conversation ID
The BI Schema identifies the Interaction using the ConversationID fields, the Session using the SessionID or SDUID. It is worth noting that some Segments might have the same SDUID/SessionID. The Conversationid was introduced to provide a single overarching identifier for the Interactions.
For further insight please visit the Understanding the difference between ConversationID and SDUID article.
Historical Data Source is Not Good for Realtime Reports
Warning
Data in the BI Schema can not be used for realtime reporting purposes!
This is because in order to present accumulated data, some records in the schema are updated several times during the lifetime of the interactions. If a custom application is written to fetch data from the BI Schema, then it should never anticipate a record to be 'ready' just because it exists. Some fields might still be updated later on.
Developers need to understand when a certain BI Schema record is qualified as 'ready' to be providing meaningful information.
ACEReport and ACESystem Databases
While the Contact Expert database is split in two to be able to locate report related data to a separate database server from data that is needed for the actual operation of the system, the BI Schema contains objects in both databases, not just the reporting one.
ACEReport Views
ACEReport.bi.Agents
A record in this view represents a single agent configured in the Contact Expert tenant the user logged into the report is registered for.
The view runs the ACESystem.bi.ufnGetUserTenants() function to filter the records presented to the tenant of the user 'looking' at the BI Schema (e.g. by running a Contact Expert BI report file or being logged in to the database directly). It also filters data based on the parameter values specified in the ACEReport.bi.Params view.
| Filed Name | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
AgentID |
integer | The unique identifier of an agent. Taken from the ACEReport.dbo.AGENTNAMES table. |
Agent name |
string | The name of the agent. Taken from the ACEReport.dbo.AGENTNAMES table. |
Login name |
string | The username part of the account the agent uses to log in to the SfB client. Taken from the ACEReport.dbo.AGENTNAMES table. |
Removed |
Yes or No string |
This flag shows whether the agent record was removed or not. The system retains agent information even after agents are removed, otherwise historical data would be inconsistent. |
Team |
string | Name of the team the agent is registered into within the Contact Expert organizational hierarchy. Taken from the ACEReport.dbo.TEAM table. |
Business unit |
string | The name of the business unit the agent is registered into within the Contact Expert organizational hierarchy. Taken from the ACEReport.dbo.BUSINESSUNIT table. |
Organization unit |
string | The value entered into the organizational unit field in the Human Agents for of the Contact Expert portal. Obviously empty for IVR Channels. Taken from the ACESystem.bi.OrganizationUnit view. |
ACEReport.bi.AgentStat
A record in this view designates one particular state an agent went into, with details such as the start date/time, duration, the actual state, any reason codes, associated queues or campaigns if any, etc. The 'agent' here can either designate a Human Agent or an IVR Channel resource as both are 'agents' in Contact Expert.
The view uses the ACESystem.bi.ufnGetTenantTimezoneOSKeys() function to transform datetime values to the TZ specified for the tenant of the user 'looking' at the BI Schema (e.g. by running a Contact Expert BI report file or being logged in to the database directly). It also filters data based on the parameter values specified in the ACEReport.bi.Params view.
| Filed Name | Value | Description |

A record in this view corresponds to one segment of a voice, email or chat interaction. Therefore complex interactions with multiple segments might have more than one record in this view connected via the ConversationID value.
Important
A voice call might not have spent any time in queue if it was an outbound call. Similarly, agent related information might also be empty (NULL) in the record, if the call never managed to reach an agent.
The view uses the ACESystem.bi.ufnGetTenantTimezoneOSKeys() function to transform datetime values to the TZ specified for the tenant of the user 'looking' at the BI Schema (e.g. by running a Contact Expert BI report file or being logged in to the database directly). It also filters data based on the parameter values specified in the ACEReport.bi.Params view.

This value is also parsed from the FOLLOWUP field of the dbo.CALLSTAT table. A NULL value means there was no followup segment after this record. |
Terminated by |
string | Reveals whether the voice interaction was finished (dropped, disconnected, hung up) by the 'far end' party (typically the Customer) or the 'near end' party (Agent). The value is based on the DROPPEDBYAGENT bit field of the dbo.CALLSTAT table. The NULL value means this information was not possible to derive (the original field is probably also NULL). |
