reporting purposes. The Master script and each primary script have an associated
application. The application has the same name as the script it represents. 2. A
program that runs on a computer.
application program interface
A set of routines, protocols, and tools that programmers use to develop software
applications. APIs simplify the development process by providing commonly
used programming procedures.
application server
The server on which the Symposium Web Client software is installed. This
server acts as the middle layer that communicates with Symposium Call Center
Server and makes information available to the client PCs.
associated supervisor
A supervisor who is available for an agent if the agent’s reporting supervisor is
unavailable. See also reporting supervisor.
Automatic call distribution
A means of automatically distributing an organization’s incoming calls among a
number of answering positions (ACD agents). Automatic call distribution is
useful in operations where callers want a service rather than a specific person.
Calls are serviced in the order they arrive and are distributed so that the
workload at each answering position is approximately equal.
Automatic call distribution call
A call to an ACD-DN. ACD calls are distributed to agents in an ACD group
based on the ACD routing table on the switch. See also Automatic call
distribution directory number.
