Overview

About MaxSupervisor

MaxSupervisor is PC desktop software that runs with the MAX

Communication Server (MAXCS) ACC and MAXCS ACM systems.

Using MaxSupervisor, supervisors of workgroup agents can monitor the

real time status and performance of a workgroup, including calls,

workgroup statistics, and agent state. This information can be stored in an

internal or external CDR database for future review and analysis.

The supervisor has the ability to listen to calls and to barge in or coach calls

if assistance is needed. The supervisor can also re-route a call in queue, if

necessary.

Session Licensing and License Upgrade

Procedures

MaxSupervisor requires that a MaxSupervisor seat license or session

license be installed at the MAXCS ACC/ACM system.

The system administrator can verify MaxSupervisor seat licenses in

MaxAdministrator by selecting License > Client SEAT License

Management.

CDR Records Note

For CDR records, there are two Service Level displays for MaxSupervisor:

•Service Level =

(number of calls in WG Queue – number of calls in Q over SL

threshold) / number of calls in Q

•Service Level since midnight =

(number of answered calls – number of answered calls over SL

threshold) / number of answered calls
