Les groupes d'appels basés sur le protocole ACD (Automatic Call Distribution),
sont liés à une fonctionnalité exclusivement disponible dans les services Virtual PBX depuis février 2021.
Avant les ACD, les groupes d'appels étaient basés sur le principe de "Call Queue", mais offraient beaucoup moins d'options de paramétrage.

ACD Call Logs

  • Information: Jusqu'à présent, sur les téléphones physiques et logiciels, vous nous pouvez voir dans le journal d'appel que ceux qui ont réellement sonné sur votre équipement.
  • Problème: Si vous étiez déjà en ligne ou indisponible à ce moment, les nouveaux appels ne vous sont pas envoyés et ne sont donc pas visibles dans le journal d'appels.
  • Solution: Nous avons accompli un nouveau projet qui permet d'intégrer dans les logiciels softphones VTX le journal des appels des groupes ACD permettant de voir les appels manqués par le groupe ou qui ont débordé vers une autre destination. Vous pouvez aussi marquer un appel manqué comme lu/traité afin d'informer vos collègues que vous avez déjà géré cet appel.

Call Waiting - not available with ACD Group

  • Information

When using ACD Group, Call Waiting is not available anymore, where as with old CQ Group it was available.
If you really, really need Call Waiting, use one of the 2 Solutions below:

  • Solution 1

Redirect incoming calls to a single number and activate Call Waiting, redirect from your single number to an ACD Queue

  • Solution 2

Ask Technical Support to activate an OLD CQ Group manually, to be able to manage Call Waiting via Kiosk (you will loose ACD functions, only standard CQ functions available)


Consider Group member redirection - not available with ACD Group

  • Information:
    • When using ACD Group, Consider Group member redirection is not available anymore like on the old "Call Queue" system. This feature has been removed because one user could break down the whole group if redirecting to a mobile voicemail for example. So all user redirections are discarded with ACD. But we have a nice new alternative to provide similar feature, splitting up user and group redirections management
    • The main reason why people were using Consider Group member redirection was to be able to use the Call Forward No Reply 5s to "disable" the group and redirect it somewhere else from one single number in the group. Now we have a new feature that allows any allowed user in an ACD group to "disable" the group and redirect it somewhere else. This feature can be setup from the Kiosk, or from a "BLF" key or with a call prefix, cf below


  • Problematic 1: You wish to be able to temporarily disable a group and redirect it somewhere else.



  • Solution 1b: If you have only one person in the group, do not use a group but a single number. In this case, you will be able to redirect calls anywhere setting up redirection on this phone directly
  • Solution 1c (temporarily solution not recommended): Ask Technical Support to activate an OLD CQ Group manually ( send information about Name of CQ Group ) - you will be able to manage again Consider Group member redirection from Kiosk. This could only be a temporarily solution because old Call Queue system is deprecated and will be removed from future version of our system.

When I setup ACD Group hierarchical or others, call cut after 15s

  • Information

If you setup an ACD Queue by default (not simultaneous) the default value is 15s.
Therefore the Call will be cut after 15s and will never ring on all the Members or get forward to another Group or Voicemail!
You need to adapt the default value of 15s ringing ( Note: 5s = 1x ringing )

  • Solution

You need to count and take decision: Take the members in the Group and multiply them with ringing.

  • Example hierarchical
  1. You have 5 Members
  2. You let ring on each member 3x ( 15s )
  3. To have the call ringing on ALL 5 Members: Multiply 5 Members with 15s ringing = 75s ringing
  4. Information: If one or more Members are Logged Out of the ACD Queue, Ringing will start from the beginning!
