Understanding ACD in Genesys Cloud CX
Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) in Genesys Cloud CX is more than just routing calls. This robust system connects incoming customer interactions—whether from chat, email, or messaging—to the most suitable agents. ACD ensures that customers receive timely responses, creating a seamless communication flow and improving overall satisfaction. Our training focuses on configuring ACD for Web Chat, Email, and Messaging to help you implement these features effectively.
Setting Up ACD Web Chat
Step 1: Create a Web Chat Deployment
To begin configuring ACD Web Chat, create a web chat deployment in the Genesys Cloud CX interface. This feature allows your organization to offer real-time assistance to website visitors, meeting them where they are and addressing their needs instantly.
- Set up the deployment by navigating to the Web Chat section.
- Generate the script for the web chat widget.
- Embed the script in the HTML code of your website, positioning the widget as desired.
This chat widget becomes the entry point for web chat interactions. As visitors start a chat, ACD automatically routes them to the appropriate queue, ensuring the right agent is assigned to assist based on skills, availability, and queue settings.
Step 2: Define Chat Queues and Routing Rules
To optimize chat management, establish queues and define routing criteria based on priority, language, and required skills. Configure the queue to prioritize high-value interactions or particular inquiries, ensuring that agents with the right skills are assigned to assist.
Configuring ACD Email Routing
Email is a critical communication channel for many businesses, and Genesys Cloud CX’s ACD Email Routing feature ensures that customer emails are handled efficiently.
Step 1: Add Your Email Domain
To begin, register your organization’s email domain with Genesys Cloud CX. This process authenticates your domain and enables routing of incoming emails.
- Navigate to the Email Settings section within Genesys Cloud CX.
- Enter your domain details and verify your domain ownership, if necessary.
Step 2: Set Up Email Queues and Prioritization
Next, assign specific email addresses to your queues. You can customize settings such as:
- Priority: Manage response times by setting up priority levels, ensuring critical emails are addressed promptly.
- Skills: Link specific skills to queues, directing emails requiring particular expertise (like technical support or billing) to the right agents.
- Language Preferences: Route emails to agents who are proficient in the sender’s preferred language, personalizing the response.
Step 3: Configure Handling Rules
Once emails are assigned to queues, create handling rules for workflow management, including actions like auto-reply, follow-up assignment, and archiving protocols. This structured setup ensures that each email receives attention without delay, enhancing the customer experience.
Integrating ACD Messaging for Third-Party Platforms
With customers increasingly turning to instant messaging for inquiries, integrating third-party messaging apps into your Genesys Cloud CX system is a powerful way to stay connected.
Step 1: Add Third-Party Messaging Channels
Genesys Cloud CX supports integration with popular platforms, including WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and more. In the Admin Console:
- Select Messaging Integration and choose the third-party app to connect.
- Authenticate your account by following the platform-specific instructions.
Step 2: Configure Routing with Architect
Once messaging channels are connected, set up inbound message flows through Architect, the Genesys Cloud CX flow design tool. With Architect, create a flow that directs incoming messages based on factors like:
- Agent skills: Assign messages to agents with specific skills (e.g., technical support).
- Customer priority: Handle high-priority clients by routing their messages to a dedicated team.
- Time-sensitive responses: Ensure urgent messages receive prompt responses based on predefined routing rules.
Architect’s visual design tools make it easy to build complex workflows, routing messages precisely to meet your team’s capabilities and customer needs.
