Create the Advisors User Account

You must create an account in the Configuration Server that can be used by the Advisors products to connect to and retrieve information from the Configuration Server. In this Deployment Guide, the account is referred to as the Advisors User account, but you can give the account a name of your choice. That is, it is not necessary to name the account Advisors User. The permissions shown in the following Table are required for this account.

Deployment Roadmap

The arrow icon in the following roadmap indicates where you are in the Advisors deployment process.

    • WA Server
    • FA Server with rollup engine
    • CCAdv/WA/FA Accessibility services
    • CCAdv/WA Resource Management console
  4. Install each adapter that you will use and configure the adapter Application objects with Stat Server connections.
  5. Install the Advisors components for your enterprise.
    • Contact Center Advisor server (CCAdv XML Generator)
    • Workforce Advisor server
    • Frontline Advisor server
    • SDS and the CCAdv/WA Resource Management console
  6. Make any required configuration changes.
Tip
You might need to use Configuration Manager to configure some of the permissions described in the following Table; it might not be possible to configure everything listed below in other Genesys configuration interfaces (Genesys Administrator or GAX).
Important
You must grant the Advisors user a privilege that allows that user to create materialized views if you are not using the supplied deployment scripts to create the user.

Starting with Advisors release 9.0, the Base Object Configuration page no longer exists in the Advisors administration module. Therefore, the following table of Advisors User account permissions has been updated; you no longer require additional permissions related to configuration on the Base Object Configuration page.
