Inbound AND Outbound agents

Hi.

I just wanted to know if this is possible.

I've been able to track the outbound calls and set the agents to pick up the calls from a queue by using a hitting # but I don't find a way to have agents logged in and having the possibility to make outbound calls.

Thanks,
Regards.

PS: I think this should go in a different forum, but I can't move it so if some admin sees it, please move to the right forum. Thanks, and sorry.

QueueMetrics:
Not sure I understand - can you explain the scenario you are using?

sebun:
Hi, thanks for the reply.

Basically, what we need to do is set a group of agents not only to receive calls but also to make outbound calls while logged to an inbound queue.

So far I've been able to:
* Agents do not receive the call directly but using '#' key to pick up a call from a queue they're logged in.
* Track outbound calls from the agents using QM and "outbound queues" as described in the documentation (qm-queuedial, etc).

What I haven't been able to do yet is to log the agents to pick up calls using the # AND have the ability to dial. It's one or the other, but not both when the agents are logged.

I'm not sure if I'm making myself any clear, hope I do. :)

Thanks!

QueueMetrics:
I am not sure about the "picking" part....  can you get me some reference?

As per outbound, of course you cannot use "true" queues to do outbound - unless you use something like WombatDialer http://wombatdialer.com that sends calls to queues. You basically create specific queues and do all the logging through our script. We suggest creating "true" queues so it's easy to track presence information.

Hi!

Thanks for the reply. I fully understand the outbound functionality. I know that there's no "true" queues while using the qm-queuedial script and I'm OK with that.

The thing is: I need the agentes to be logged in Inbound Queues to receive calls and simultaneously they have to have the ability to dial out (using qm-queuedial). Is this configuration possible?

Regarding the "picking": I was mentioning the ackcall button (#) that can be enabled and configured in the agents.conf file in Asterisk. This is used to have the agents picking the calls while hitting # instead of directly receiving them when a call comes in. This is not something from QM in particular, but something we need to use in order to give the agents the possibility of receiving a call or not whether they are going to make a call (or not).

Thanks again, and sorry for the round trip.
Regards.
