Diagnose Call Throttling
Required permissions: Outbound Strategy Manager View
If you configured your Personal Connection (PC) skill for predictive dialing, you may experience some throttling, which means that you dial under the configured maximum dialing ratio. It usually occurs as a safety control. Use the following steps to confirm throttling is occurring and to determine the reason.
-
Click the app selector
and select ACD.
-
Go to Outbound > Skill Control.
-
In the Outbound Skill Control table, find the skill you want to diagnose. Determine whether throttling is occurring in the skill by looking in the T column. If you see an X there, the skill is throttling.
-
Hover your cursor over the X to see the reason for call throttling in the skill.
