eCreator
IVR (Interactive Voice Response) – Just Say It! Speech
Recognition
eCreator IVR now includes a new optional module called Just Say
It! Just Say It! is an advanced speech recognition application.
It uses SpeechWorks’ high performance voice recognition technology
that allows IVR scripts to listen for words or phrases spoken by
a caller.
Simplify call processing by voice enabling menus to allow
callers to speak an option instead of entering DTMF tones.
In addition to listening for commands, Just Say It! can instruct
IVR to gather information from the caller and store it in the IVR
database. This can range from simple Yes/No commands, to speaking
a person’s
name, or an ID or credit card number. The possibilities
are unlimited. Just Say It! provides the tools to build dictionaries
of words or phrases needed for each application and includes
simple drag and drop elements to add speech recognition to your eCreator
IVR scripts.
eIdeas is the “Scripting Ideas” column to help you think
outside the box to get the most out of eCreator. Have you ever thought
about using eCreator scripts for in house workflow management? How
do you process and track your inbound sales calls and leads? An eCreator
script can lead your personnel through all the benefits and features
that you want to be sure to inform potential clients of and save
all the information collected, including any prices quoted, directly
into a database for tracking and promotional purposes. And since
it’s web-based, no software needs to be installed, just type
in the URL or add it to the Favorites list in any browser and access
to the script is just a couple clicks away on any PC.
Another workflow
management task that eCreator can simplify is data entry. Do
you ever enter BRC cards or other leads for your clients? Remember
with eCreator, you don’t have to install any software,
so the entry can begin immediately from any computer in your
office without delay. And eCreator’s validation tools reduce
errors and “eCelerate” entry with time saving features
like filling in city and state based on postal code.
Have you been
thinking of doing a customer survey? Use an eCreator script
to inform your clients about your services consistently regardless
of your personnel’s experience and save all the data
collected in a database that can be mined for all the riches
derived from survey results. Are you happy with the way your
Customer Service calls are handled? Why not create an eCreator
script to make sure that each of these complex calls are handled
exactly the way you want. You can create a branch for each
type of call you receive and be sure that your clients are
getting consistent information.

Making
a Textbox on a Page Invisible
Making a textbox invisible on
a page is sometimes necessary when the script requires the field
to be on a page but you do not want the field to be visible to the
agents. One example of this is when using the DbPicklist to do a
lookup in a database. Currently the lookup field has to be on the
same page as the DbPicklist even if it is not necessary for the agents
to see it on that page.
A work around for this would be to make the
field invisible. Therefore, it will still be on the page but
will not be visible to an agent.
To
make a textbox invisible, you need to double click on it to
get to the properties window. Once you are in there, click the Formatting
Tab. In the Class field, type in collapsed. This will make
the field invisible on the page. |
