Purpose
Routing can be used to change the behavior of the Contact Center when a certain address / URI is recognized. For example all phone numbers with a Dutch number needs to be forwarded to a Skill with Dutch speaking Agents.
For each line in the Routing a Match criteria can be set, following the order the Match lines will be used. When there is a match the address will be forwarded to either the Skill or the Parent Question. When forwarded to a Skill the caller will directly enter the queue. When forward to a Parent Question, the customer will enter the IVR Interactive Voice Response, or IVR, is a telephone application to take orders via telephone keypad or voice through a computer. By choosing menu options the caller receives information, without the intervention of a human operator, or will be forwarded to the appropriate Agent. at that point.
UCC Routing is when a customer calls the UCC directly.
For UCC Routing only the MatchFrom field will used. This routing is active on all the endpoints, or on the selected endpoints.
