New in AICS 9.0.015.03/ASC 9.0.015.04/URS Strategy Subroutines 9.0.015.00 (07/19/2019)

The NGINX container is no longer included in AICS. Previously, NGINX was provided as a convenience for use in internal and/or pre-production environments.
This release enables you to log scoring details that you can then use to monitor and better understand the scoring process and outcomes. This release also includes scripts to clean up unneeded score logs from MongoDB. To how to turn on score logging, for information about what is logged, and for the cleanup script, see View the Scoring Logs.
New API endpoints have been added, enabling you to use the MinIO container to upload Agent Profile and Customer Profile data. Previously, only Dataset data used the MinIO container, which provides a performance improvement over the data_upload worker alone. For details about these new endpoints, see the Predictive Routing API Reference, which you can access from a link on this page. (Requires a password for access. Please contact your Genesys representative if you need to view this document.)
The GPR API now returns a file_path parameter in the response message when you request a presigned URL, which replaces the uploaded file name. You must now pass this file_path parameter in requests to create Datasets or the Agent Profile or Customer Profile instead of the uploaded file name, used in previous releases. For details, see the Predictive Routing API Reference, which you can access from a link on this page. (Requires a password for access. Please contact your Genesys representative if you need to view this document.)
The GPR web application has enhanced security by logging out inactive users.
GPR now accepts only CSV and zipped CSV files for upload to Datasets, the Agent Profiles, and the Customer Profile. JSON file uploads are no longer supported.
The numeric datatype now replaces both float and integer datatypes in Agent and Customer Profiles. This change resolves confusion about when to use float and integer datatypes.
This is a breaking change from previous releases of AICS and Agent State Connector (ASC). If you upgrade either component you MUST also upgrade the other. The following versions are compatible:
- AICS 9.0.015.03 and higher + ASC 9.0.015.04 and higher.
- AICS 9.0.015.00 and lower + ASC 9.0.015.01 and lower.
Improvement in the queries used to run the Feature Analysis Report improve the speed and reliability with which these reports are generated.
The Deployment and Operations Guide now contains complete instructions for configuring HTTPS connections among all GPR components: Configure GPR to Use HTTPS
You can now optionally run ASC without a connection to Stat Server. ASC automatically detects whether there is a Stat Server Application in the ASC Application Connections tab. If so, ASC connects as in previous releases. If not, ASC does not connect to Stat Server and does not send agent login status updates to the GPR platform. In this case, AICS receives agent availability information from Universal Routing Server (URS).
ASC now validates the values you enter in the include-skills and include-groups configuration options. If ASC detects a skill name or Agent Group specified in these options that does not exist in Configuration Server, ASC triggers a Standard-level log message (Message Server log event number: 60401).
A number of subroutines have been introduced or modified. They perform the following functions:
- The new GPRIxnSetup subroutine initializes all the GPR KVPs with default values, setting with gpmMode to off and gpmResult to 15 (Predictive Routing is turned off or not used for this interaction).
- The GPRIxnCompleted subroutine has been updated to include the correct value of gpmScoreAboveMedian KVP by comparing the selected agent score with the returned median score.
- The ActivatePredictiveRouting_v3 and GPRIxnCleanup subroutines have been enhanced to add connection_ids as a URL parameter in the score request and the score_log request, for easier troubleshooting in URS logs.
- The GPRIxnCleanup subroutine now performs score log and UserEvent (KVP) distribution (previously done in the GPRIxnCompleted subroutine). This subroutine can now correctly identify abandoned interactions and interactions in which GPR was unable to route the interaction and add this information to the score log and the Genesys Info Mart gpmResult KVP, with the values 13 - Call Abandoned and 14 - Call Routing Failed.
The URS Strategy Subroutines now send the following new KVPs, which are stored in the Genesys Info Mart database and are available for reporting:
- gpmAdjustedAgentScore - The final agent score used to route the associated interaction to the selected agent. This score is calculated from the gpmAgentScore combined with any agent occupancy factor.
- gpmDefaultAgentScore - This default agent score for the associated interaction. The value is the outcome, for this interaction, of the setting specified in the default-agent-score configuration option.
- gpmDefaultScoredAgents - The number of agents with default scores assigned for an interaction.
- gpmDefaultScoreUsed - Indicates whether the agent score for the associated interaction is taken from the scoring response returned by GPR or the value of the default-agent-score configuration option.
- gpmGlobalScoreCount - The number of agents scored using the Global model. This value is the content of the global_scores_count field returned by AICS in the scoring response.
- gpmInitialScoreThreshold - The initial threshold value used for the interaction, taken from the value set in the score-base-threshold configuration option.
- gpmFinalScoreThreshold - The final threshold value used to route the associated interaction to the selected agent. The routing strategy calculates the value from the configured score threshold combined with values resulting from any agent holdout options.
- gpmScoreAboveMedian - Indicates whether the score for the selected agent was better than the median score for the target group.
- gpmSuitableAgentsCount - The number of agents who had scores greater than or equal to the initial threshold value when the scoring response was received.
- gpmPredictorType (Reserved for future use)
- gpmRoutingMethod (Reserved for future use)
For additional information see the following sources:
- Integrate with Genesys Reporting
- For the corresponding changes in Genesys Info Mart, see the “New in This Release” information for release 8.5.014.09 in the Genesys Info Mart Physical Data Model for your RDBMS.
The gpmResult KVP now includes four new values:
- 12 - Reserved for future use
- 13 - Call Abandoned
- 14 - Call Routing Failed
- 15 - Predictive Routing is turned off or not used for this interaction
The value off was added to the valid values for the gpmMode KVP.
The gpmWaitTime value is now calculated using START_TS rather than gpm-ixn-timestamp.
The GetActionFilters subroutine was enhanced to identify the list of agents matching the target skill group along with the configured login status expression. This information is also reported in the action filters of the scoring request. This functionality is invoked only when the use-action-filters configuration option is set to false.
Two new documentation pages, Routing Scenarios Using GPR and How Does GPR Score Agents? provide detailed discussions of those aspects of GPR functionality.

New in Release 9.0.015.00 (03/26/2019)

This release includes an updated and improved version of the Predictive Routing API Reference, which you can access from a link on this page. In particular, there are now cURL request examples for each endpoint.
AI Core Services now requires Docker version 18.09.2, which addresses important security issues. See the Release Notes for AI Core Services 9.0.015.00 for important information about the reason for this change and for Docker deployment information.
You can now convert a regular account into an LDAP account. A toggle with label LDAP has been added to the Settings > Account update window. To enable LDAP authentication, enter your LDAP credentials and save changes. After that, you must also convert the user accounts for those who should use LDAP authentication. User configuration is done in the Settings > User Management window.
This release includes the following improvements to the user interfaces in the GPR web application:
- A new navigation panel provides a tree view of all Datasets, Predictors, and Models configured for the current Tenant. This tree-view pane is available from the Settings > Datasets and Settings > Predictors windows. Each item in the tree view links to the specified object, enabling easy access to the entire hierarchy of Datasets, Predictors, and Models.
  NOTE: Composite Predictors, which can be built on data from multiple Datasets, are not shown in this tree-view pane.
- For simplified navigation, breadcrumb links now appear at the top of windows in the GPR web application if you have drilled-down past a top-level window.

New in Release 9.0.014.00 (12/21/2018)

You can now upload Dataset, Agent Profile, and Customer Profile data to Genesys Predictive Routing (GPR) from CSV files that use certain legacy encodings (listed below). By default, GPR always assumes the CSV files are encoded with UTF-8. This change applies to uploads using both the GPR web application and the GPR API. The following encodings are supported:
- UTF-8
- Shift JIS
All data returned from GPR uses UTF-8 encoding.
GPR has optimized how cardinalities are stored. Cardinalities are now written into a dedicated database collection, so that the cardinalities for each field are stored in their own document. Previously, the cardinalities were stored along with the schema data. With high-cardinality features, this could lead to performance degradation due to additional conversions needed to extract the cardinality data.
The schema management workflow for Agent and Customer Profiles has been simplified and streamlined. The Discovered Fields tab has been removed and cardinality counts have been added to the schema view. This change ensures GPR always presents up-to-date Profile information. The schema tab always presented updated information, if available, but the Discovered Fields tab display was generated only once and did not reflect changes to the Profile schema.
The explanation for how to configure and interpret the Agent Variance Report has been clarified and expanded.
AI Core Services (AICS) now supports deployment in an environment running on a Kubernetes cluster.
AICS supports Security Enhanced Linux (SELinux) on CentOS 7.
If the ASC configuration contains non-empty values for the new filter-by-skills and/or filter-by-groups configuration options, ASC subscribes to Stat Server for agent statistics only for the agents included in the specified Agent Groups or those satisfying the configured skill expression. If both options are configured, the agents are subscribed for statistics if they either satisfy the skill expression specified in the filter-by-skills option or are included in one of the Agent Groups specified in the filter-by-groups option. This functionality enables you to limit the number of agents monitored by GPR or to use GPR in environments where multiple Stat Servers are deployed to monitor different groups of agents.
Agent State Connector (ASC) now supports email interactions, as well as voice.

New in Release 9.0.013.01 (10/25/2018)

Dataset handling has been made significantly faster by means of the following improvements:
- For the initial data upload, this release introduces the Minio container.
- The Dataset import to MongoDB now uses a multithreaded process.
The NGINX container has been removed from AICS. NGINX is an optional load balancer that had been provided only for use only in test environments.
The Sizing Guide for Genesys Predictive Routing (GPR) has been entirely reworked and expanded.
The explanation for how to use Composite Predictors has been revised and clarified.
The GPR web application and GPR API now use the same process to create Agent and Customer Profile schemas. In addition, the instructions for Configuring Agent Profiles have been revised and expanded.
The LOG_LEVEL environment variable has been added to the tango.env configuration file. By default, it is set to INFO, which is a minimal logging level, adequate for most circumstances.
This release upgrades AICS to Python 3.6 from Python 2.7.
AICS now performs automatic cleanup processes which should maintain an adequate amount of free disk space.
Memory handling for MongoDB was improved In this release.
The Lift Estimation report has been improved, adding Export functionality, the ability to toggle between graph and table displays, and showing the Aggregated view as the first tab listed.
This release includes a number of changes to the look and feel of the GPR web application interface, as well as multiple user experience improvements to provide more intuitive workflows and better presentation of information. For a complete list, refer to the AI Core Services Release Note for release 9.0.013.01.
This release provides a number of improvements and additions to the GPR API, including the ability to sync and accept Datasets, check job status and support for nesting dictionary fields. For a complete list, refer to the AI Core Services Release Note for release 9.0.013.01 and the Predictive Routing API Reference (Requires a password for access. Please contact your Genesys representative if you need to view this document.)

New in Release 9.0.012.01 (08/23/2018)

The Quality column in the Models list table on the Model configuration window now includes a new metric, Local models. The metric displays the number of local models generated for agents in the dataset on which the predictor is built.
AI Core Services (AICS) has improved handling of UTF-8 characters. Data ingestion, model training, and analysis reports are all correctly processed for data containing non-ASCII UTF-8 characters.
The Genesys Predictive Routing (GPR) API now enables you to run Lift Estimation reports. The API returns a JSON response containing the Lift Estimation results. The resulting report is also automatically available for view from the GPR web application.
The GPR API now enables you to run Feature Analysis reports. The API returns a JSON response containing a list of features ordered by weight--that is, by the strength of the impact that feature has on the value of the target metric. The resulting report is also automatically available for view from the GPR web application.
The Lift Estimation report now uses the scoring expression configured for the predictor (if any) to decide whether the target metric should be minimized or maximized.
You can now configure Agent State Connector (ASC) to monitor the StatAgentOccupancy Stat Server statistic.
You can now configure ASC to monitor a subset of the total list of agent groups present in agent profiles.
You can now choose to have ASC ignore the following unsupported ASCII characters: [Space], -, <, >.
You can now configure ASC to monitor a subset of the total list of skills present in agent profiles.
ASC now supports a connection to Stat Server running in single-server mode, without a backup.

New in Release 9.0.011.00 (07/13/2018)

This release includes a number of additions to the Predictive Routing API:
- You can now generate and purge predictor data.
- You can now create a new predictor by copying an existing one.
- You can now use GET commands to retrieve dataset and predictor details.
- The way Predictive Routing recomputes cardinalities when you append data to Agent or Customer Profiles using the API has been improved.
- You can now retrieve information on the currently deployed platform using the new version endpoint.
This release includes the following new supported platforms:
- Mongo DB 3.6 (requires a special upgrade procedure; see the AI Core Services Release Note for details)
- Oracle Linux 7.3
You can now configure parameters to control password-related behavior such as how often users must change them, blocking users after a specified number of login attempts, and adding a custom message when users are blocked.
The audit trail functionality has been improved, to record additional actions and provide the ability to specify how long audit trail records are kept. All actions related to logins, object modification/creation/deletion, and so on, whether performed using the GPR application or the API, are logged.
You can configure the Predictive Routing application to display custom messages on the login screen.
You can now upload data (agent, customer, and dataset) using zip-archived .csv files.
Predictive Routing now correctly recognizes columns with any combination of the following Boolean values: y/n, Y/N, Yes/No. Previously, only columns with true/false and 0/1 values were discovered as Booleans. The identification is case insensitive.

New in Release 9.0.010.01 (05/11/2018)

Genesys Predictive Routing complies with GDPR requirements for handling sensitive customer information. The Predictive Routing API has been expanded to provide Read and Delete functions, enabling you to locate and remove user data. For details, refer to Handling Personally Identifiable Information in Compliance with GDPR Requirements in the Genesys Predictive Routing Deployment and Operations Guide and to the Predictive Routing API Reference (access requires a password; contact your Genesys representative for assistance).
The Lift Estimation report now offers Advanced Group By functionality, which provides more flexibility in customizing the report. For details, refer to the Lift Estimation Report Overview in the Genesys Predictive Routing Help.

New in Release 9.0.009.00 (03/28/2018)

Journey Optimization Platform (JOP) was renamed to AI Core Services (AICS).
When generating the Lift Estimation report, Predictive Routing now provides the option to produce a report for each unique value for a selected column (feature). Previously, any feature with a cardinality of more than 20 was excluded, which meant that you could not produce reports with a granularity higher than 20 unique features.
The agent pool for lift estimation is now constructed on a per-day basis for the interactions in the dataset. Previously, you might have observed a negative lift for higher agent availability or an unexpectedly high lift for low agent availability due to overcorrection caused by a mismatch between the input sample size and the actual sizes encountered through daily simulation.
Predictive Routing now supports LDAP authentication when logging in.

New in Release 9.0.008.00 (03/05/2018)

You can now enable Predictive Routing to look up updated values for certain agent attributes, based on customer or interaction attributes during a scoring request. For instance, you can look up agent performance by virtual queue, enabling you to evaluate the agent’s previous performance when handling interactions from that queue. This avoids comparing agent performance for a specific queue against other agents who handle interactions from a different mixture of virtual queues.
You can now view an entire Agent Profile or Customer Profile record from the Agents Details and Customers Details tabs or an entire record on the Datasets Details tab. Click a single record to open a new window containing a table with all the related key-value pairs.
Agent State Connector now supports connection to a secured Configuration Server port and TLS 1.2 connections to Stat Server.
You can now configure Agent State Connector to automatically create an Agent Profile schema, if none exists, or to verify the existing schema.
You can now have Agent State Connector collect call connId data from Stat Server and write it to the Agent Profile schema for use in Predictive Routing.
Agent State Connector is now supported on Windows. For exact versions supported, see the Genesys Supported Operating Environment Reference Guide.
Predictive Routing now supports datasets of up to 250 columns for predictor data generation, model training, and analysis.
Model training speed has been considerably improved.
Predictive Routing now provides progress indicators when loading predictor data and generating predictors. The progress indicators show the percent complete and the number of data rows already loaded.
The maximum supported cardinality for the Group By functionality in the Lift Estimation report has been increased to 20. All features with cardinalities between 1 and 20 are now available in the Group By selection menu.
You can now enter a maximum value of 500 simulations in the Lift Estimation analysis report settings. This prevents you from entering numbers too large to efficiently analyze and which can lead to an out-of-memory situation. The Number of Simulations field accepts any value larger than 0 and less than or equal to 500.
Predictive Routing now provides a text search field for use when selecting attributes for analysis.

New in Release 9.0.007.01 (01/05/2018)

The user interface and the documentation have been updated to reflect the product name change from Genesys Predictive Matching to Genesys Predictive Routing.

Important

For now, the following Genesys Predictive Routing components retain "Predictive Matching" as a part of the component name: Predictive Matching - Agent State Connector, Predictive Matching - Composer Strategy Subroutines, and Predictive Matching - URS Strategy Subroutines.

New in Release 9.0.007.00 (12/22/2017)

The product name has changed from Genesys Predictive Matching to Genesys Predictive Routing. This change is not yet reflected in the application interface or in the documentation.
Genesys Predictive Routing now supports both single-site and multi-site HA architectures.
Genesys Predictive Routing now supports historical reporting, provided by the Genesys Reporting solution. The following reports are available in Genesys Interactive Insights/GCXI: Predictive Routing AB Testing Report, Predictive Routing Agent Occupancy Report, Predictive Routing Detail Report, Predictive Routing Operational Report, and Predictive Routing Queue Statistics Report.
Two new real-time reporting templates are available for use in Pulse dashboards: Agent Group KPIs by Predictive Model and Queue KPIs by Predictive Model.
Two new analysis reports have been added to the Genesys Predictive Routing application: Agent Variance and Lift Estimation.
The Model creation interface now includes additional model quality and agent coverage reporting.
The Feature Analysis report, the model creation and training functionality, and the dataset import functionality have been improved to handle large datasets.
You can now combine simple predictors to create composite predictors.
Health checks and monitoring have been improved for both Journey Optimization Platform (JOP) and Agent State Connector (ASC). ASC now enables you to set alarms if there are persistent connection issues with Configuration Server or Stat Server.

New in Release 9.0.006.00 (09/26/2017)

You can now deploy the Journey Optimization Platform (JOP) in Docker containers.
This release includes updates to the Predictive Matching web interface for improved usability and rebranding.
This release includes context-sensitive Help.
You can now update and retrain models that have not yet been activated. You can also make changes to activated models by cloning them, editing the parameters, then activating the new model in place of the old one.
Agent State Connector and the Strategy Subroutines components can be deployed in a high availability configuration.
Predictive Matching now supports HTTPS.
Predictive Matching now supports TLS 1.2 encryption. Support for TLS 1.1 has been discontinued.
Routing using Predictive Matching can now take agent occupancy into account when selecting the best target.
The workflow for creating Predictors has been made more logical and straightforward.
Users can now reset their passwords from the Predictive Matching web interface.

New in Release 9.0.005.00 (06/27/2017)

Predictive Matching now provides REST APIs for scoring, agent profile updates, and customer profile updates.
Predictive Matching now supports strategies created in Composer and processed by Orchestration Server (ORS). These strategies utilize common Universal Routing Server (URS) subroutines to store scores returned from the scoring server and to set callback functions in URS.
Schema modification has been extended to enable manual creation of fields not included in an imported dataset. This extended functionality also enables discovery of additional fields by uploading further data and thereby extending the schema.

New in Release 9.0.004.04 (03/28/2017)

Extended datasets functionality now includes built-in analysis capabilities to make data exploration and feature analysis more straightforward without requiring customers to first build a predictive model.
Customer profile data can now be loaded to the platform by means of a REST-API and joined at run time for scoring. This simplifies the integration requirements for deploying Predictive Matching, requiring less modification to existing routing strategies or run time CRM integrations.
Predictive Matching now enables logging of routing decisions, required for accurate A/B testing, to JOP rather than Genesys Info Mart. This simplifies Predictive Matching deployment, by removing the need to make changes to Interaction Concentrator and Genesys Info Mart to support Predictive Matching.
The new Predictive Matching Help now opens when you click the Help link in the Predictive Matching interface.

New in Release 9.0.003.00

Improvements to the analytics and reporting functionality:
- Reports can now indicate whether a predictive score was generated (that is, A/B testing), and whether it was interleaved, or time-divided.
- The range of visualization on the Reporting Dashboard page has been improved.
- Predictive Routing can now perform analysis and data discovery on factors driving the KPI that is being optimized.
You can now upload data sets in CVS format, enabling you to have Predictive Routing analyze the data, define predictors based on it, and report on it. You can use these data sets for model training and testing, and you can calculate statistics for correlation and cardinality from them.
Self-service predictor management and model creation. Note the following properties of predictors and models:
- You can have multiple models built from one related data set.
- You can only use a predictor to optimize a single metric (that is, a column in the data set); each model under the same predictor optimizes the same metric.
- You can use a subset of features from the data set to define a predictor.
- A predictor can be based on a subset of data (such as a time range, or a subset created by filtering data set column values).
- Once you define a predictor, you can append new data to its underlying data set.
- A predictor can use any source of data matching the source data set schema to retrain and update models.

New in Release 9.0.000.00

Routing subroutine support to score agents in agent-surplus mode, where there are more agents in ready status than interactions requiring agent handling. Agents can be scored on various criteria you configure so that interactions go to the most suitable agent.
Routing subroutine support to score agents in customer-surplus mode, where more customer interactions are waiting in queue than there are available agents. Interactions are scored based on criteria you define so that customers you consider highest priority are handled first.
Logging, monitoring, and alarm capabilities.
Ability to combine various criteria for scoring agents or interactions for suitability, leading to a more nuanced matching of agents and interactions.
Fault Tolerance. If Predictive Routing is unavailable, or if a Predictive Routing strategy subroutine takes more than a specified amount of time to process an interaction, the routing strategy defaults back to standard behavior.

New in 9.0.111.31

Intelligent Automation now supports direct audio streaming to Google Dialogflow Essentials using Nexus, GWS, and Google Dialogflow. A new Natural Language Audio Streaming Menu microapp has been included to support audio streaming.
The Groovy script execution in Script Blocks and the getRemoteHttpData method are optimized to use the connection pool feature. A new option, Script.RemoteHttpClient.connectTimeout is added to configure the connection timeout value.
Intelligent Automation now allows configuring the Menu Controller VXML options from the UI instead of configuring them in the fish.properties file.
To support localization, the database schema and the column sizes in the tables have been enhanced.
Intelligent Automation supports high availability (N+1) chat servers.
Intelligent Automation now supports masking user input entries in Visual IVR applications. If the Confidential Mode setting is enabled, Visual IVR masks the strings instead of displaying the actual information. This setting does not mask the currencies, dates, numbers, and phone number grammar types.

New in 9.0.110.23

A new server setting, GoogleASR.NBestValue.ConfidenceScoreBased is introduced to pick the N-Best best results based on the confidence score. Previously, only the first entry in the list was chosen.
A new server setting, VoiceXML.SSML.Play.DynamicSSML is introduced to control Dynamic Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML) playback with variables. SSML playback from GIA Prompts and NLM (Natural Language Menu) responses are supported. When this flag is set to true, Genesys Voice Platform (GVP) interprets the SSML tags available in a variable. Previously, GVP played the SSML values present in a variable as a string value.
Intelligent Automation now supports Enhanced ASR (Advanced Speech Recognition) properties to support Google Speech Recognizers. Two new Voice UI (VUI) preference options, google_use_enhanced and google_use_model_type are introduced to configure the Enhanced ASR properties.
Intelligent Automation now supports single utterance properties to support Google Speech Recognizers. A new VUI preference option, single_word_utterance is introduced to configure the single utterance option.
Question blocks now support the YMD, DMY, and MDY date formats.
The size of the cti_fields field in the calls and historical_calls tables of the Fish Reports database is increased from 1000 to 2000 characters.

New in 9.0.109.06

The Tomcat version has been upgraded from 9.0.27 to 9.0.37.

New in 9.0.109.03

The Tomcat Session ID can now be included in the Tomcat logs (localhost_access_log.xxxxxxx.txt) by adding the regex pattern, %S to the existing list of patterns: pattern="%h %l %u %t %r %s %S %b %T %{CallId}s".

New in 9.0.109.00

The createNativePrompt method has been enhanced to support an optional parameter (JSON) to supply Rich Media related key-value pairs in the structured transcript message. This allows IA to send Rich Media UI-related properties to be sent to Chat clients. See Adding custom rich media for more information.
The fish-cbp plugin now supports using proxy servers to communicate with IA servers. See Using Bots from more information.

New in 9.0.107.00

Intelligent Automation now supports Google Dialogflow's follow-up intents and output contexts.

The Date Picker in Web IVR now supports DMY (default), MDY and YMD date formats.

New in 9.0.106.05

Multi-modal applications in IA will now check for the ORS session status before transitioning to the final vxml.jsp. This prevents IA runtime sessions from timing out while waiting for new requests.

New in 9.0.106.02

The fallback to voice on client error functionality now works properly.
Switching back to the Voice option from the Multi-modal option will no longer trigger execution of the Visual Mandatory On VUI preferences.
Browsers can now use Web IVR without requiring cookies to be set.
Additional contingency messaging is added to the VisualMessages.properties file to cover scenarios when no sessions are available.
WebIVR pages now change the location to EndSession.jsp after loading. This resolves the issue where requests made with expired sessions caused errors.
Logging has been included for multimodal sessions when a new session request is received. The logs will now include information on the validity of the session ID.
The footer buttons now display correctly in WebIVR when cookies are not enabled.

New in 9.0.106.00

Introduced in 8.5.011.18

The following new features were added in the 8.5.011.18 release.

Support for obtaining reporting data from Kafka — Genesys Info Mart now supports obtaining reporting data from Genesys applications via Apache Kafka. Support for reporting data from Kafka-enabled applications is predefined and cannot be customized. A new Genesys Info Mart configuration section, kafka-<cluster-name>, contains options providing the connection and topic information that enable Genesys Info Mart to function as a Kafka consumer.
The first two producer applications that plan to use Kafka are Bot Gateway Server (BGS) and Genesys Co-browse (GCB). When Kafka-enabled releases of BGS and GCB are available and the Kafka-related Genesys Info Mart configuration options have been set, the BGS and COBROWSE tables in the Info Mart database will be populated with data from Kafka.
Genesys Info Mart now supports reporting on outbound call flows in SIP Cluster deployments where SIP Server can disable recording and monitoring.

Introduced in 8.5.011.14

The following new features were added in the 8.5.011.14 release.

Support for async chat reporting — Support for chat session reporting has been extended to include detailed reporting on asynchronous (async) chat sessions. New columns in the CHAT_SESSION_FACT and CHAT_SESSION_DIM tables store async chat statistics. In deployments that include Reporting and Analytics Aggregates (RAA) release 8.5.005 or higher and Genesys CX Insights (GCXI) release 9.0.007 or higher, new aggregate (AGT_CHAT_*) tables in the Info Mart database provide the summarized session data required to populate out-of-box async chat dashboards.
For links to more information about Genesys Info Mart support for async chat reporting, see the Genesys Info Mart Release Note for release 8.5.011.14.
Support for Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.2 — Genesys Info Mart supports TLS 1.2 to secure connections with other Genesys applications at the host, port, or application level. For full information, see Secure Connections (TLS) in the Genesys Security Deployment Guide and Secure connections using TLS in the Platform SDK Developer's Guide.
Additional schema changes — This release includes additional schema-related changes to improve user-data processing and to prepare support for new areas of reporting. For more information, see the "New in Release 8.5.011.14" section in the Genesys Info Mart Physical Data Model for your RDBMS.

Support for General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliance has been extended to employee requests. The scope of the CTL_GDPR_HISTORY history table has been similarly extended. Additionally, the UPDATE_AUDIT_KEY column was added to the CALLBACK_FACT, GPM_FACT, and SDR_* fact tables. For more information about the CTL_GDPR_HISTORY history table and other schema changes in release 8.5.010.16, see the “New in This Release” page in the Genesys Info Mart Physical Data Model for your RDBMS.

Introduced in 8.5.010

The following new features were added in the 8.5.010 release.

Support for General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliance — To enable customers to comply with Right to Access (export) or Right of Erasure ("forget") requests from their customers ("consumers"), Genesys Info Mart reports or redacts customer-specified personally identifiable information (PII) stored in Info Mart fact tables. The daily Info Mart database maintenance job, Job_MaintainGIM, automatically processes new GDPR requests, which customers provide in tenant-specific JSON files. For more information about Genesys Info Mart support for GDPR compliance, see General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Genesys Info Mart Support for GDPR in the Genesys Security Deployment Guide.

Introduced in 8.5.009.20

The following new features were added in the 8.5.009.20 release.

Enhanced Callback reporting — Two new dimension tables (CALLBACK_DIAL_RESULTS and CALLBACK_DIM_4) and a number of new CALLBACK_FACT table columns extend support for Callback reporting by providing more data about dialing attempts and dial results. For detailed information about the schema changes, see the Physical Data Model for your RDBMS. For more information about the KVPs that enable callback reporting, see the Callback Solution Guide.
Support for Elasticsearch version 5.0+ via RESTful API — In preparation for future support (on premises deployments) for reporting on applications that do not send data to Genesys Info Mart through ICON, Genesys Info Mart now supports use of the Elasticsearch REST API client to retrieve data from an Elasticsearch 5.0 or later database. A new configuration section in the Info Mart application, [elasticsearch-<data-source-id>], and new configuration options, client and No results, enable you to specify the Elasticsearch cluster that Genesys Info Mart will use to retrieve data from the data source identified by <data-source-id>.

Introduced in 8.5.009

The following new features were added in the initial 8.5.009 release.

Support for Genesys Predictive Routing (GPR) reporting — Genesys Info Mart now supports reporting on GPR usage and the impact of predictive routing on agent and interaction-handling KPIs for voice, web, and mobile channels. Genesys Info Mart support for GPR reporting is provided out-of-box, provided that GPR has been configured to send the required KVPs in UserEvents and that ICON has been configured to store those KVPs. New GPM_* tables in the Info Mart schema store GPR-related data. For more information, see the Genesys Info Mart Physical Data Model for your RDBMS.

Introduced in 8.5.008.29

The following new features were added in the 8.5.008.29 release.

Genesys Designer reporting enhancements — New SDR_SURVEY_* tables (SDR_SURVEY_FACT, SDR_SURVEY_QUESTIONS, SDR_SURVEY_ANSWERS) support reporting on post-call surveys for interaction flows that involve applications developed with Genesys Designer. (Genesys Designer is supported in certain Genesys Engage cloud and on-premises deployments.) For more information, see the Genesys Info Mart Physical Data Model for your RDBMS.

Introduced in 8.5.008

The following new features were added in the 8.5.008 release.

Support for the Microsoft Windows Server 2016 operating system. See the Genesys Info Mart page in the Supported Operating Environment Reference for more detailed information and a list of all supported operating systems.

Introduced in 8.5.007

The following new features were added in the 8.5.007 release:

Deployment simplification and maintenance improvements — The following enhancements reduce resource requirements and effort for deployment and maintenance.
- The restriction that there must be separate IDBs for Voice and Multimedia has been relaxed. The topologies that Genesys Info Mart supports now include one ICON and one IDB for all data domains. For more information, see Supported Topologies in the Genesys Info Mart Deployment Guide.
- Job_InitializeGIM, Job_ExtractICON, and Job_MigrateGIM now automatically create missing IDB views as well as indexes required for the applicable DAP role(s). It is no longer necessary for users to run update_idb_*.sql scripts manually. In addition to streamlining and expediting execution of the initialization and migration jobs, the maintenance improvements mean that missing indexes or views will not interrupt Job_ExtractICON by causing Genesys Info Mart to go into the migration state until IDB is updated.
- A new configuration option, on-demand-migration in the [schedule] section, enables you to configure Genesys Info Mart to run Job_MigrateGIM automatically when required. Previously, Genesys Info Mart entered the migration state if the Info Mart database schema needed to be upgraded following Genesys Info Mart Server migration, and manual intervention was required in order to run Job_MigrateGIM to migrate the database, before ETL functioning would resume.
  Important
  Genesys does not recommend enabling migration on demand unless policies and procedures are in place to ensure that essential pre-migration and post-migration steps are also performed without manual intervention — for example, frequent database backup and re-creation of read-only views following migration.
User data enhancement — In deployments that use ICON 8.1.512.08 or higher, Genesys Info Mart now supports storage of e-mail subjects up to 1024 characters. You can also store up to 1024 characters in fields with character data types in custom user data fact tables, provided that you defined these fields correctly in the user-data template script. Previously, the limit was 255 characters.
Unicode characters support on Microsoft SQL Server — Genesys Info Mart support for data storage in multiple languages has been extended to Microsoft SQL Server. A new database-creation script (make_gim_multilang.sql or make_gim_multilang_partitioned.sql) uses nvarchar instead of varchar data types to enable you to take advantage of Unicode characters in Microsoft SQL Server deployments, provided that ICON and Genesys Configuration Layer components have been configured as required (see Configuring for Multi-Language Support in the Interaction Concentrator Deployment Guide).
Important
There is no migration path from an existing Info Mart database to a Unicode database.
Gapless mediation reporting improvement — In eServices deployments, a new option, show-non-queue-mediation-mm, enables you to configure Genesys Info Mart to eliminate gaps in mediation reporting. The option does this by providing additional, non-queue MSFs to cover the time that a multimedia interaction is in mediation but is not in an Interaction Queue for which there is an MSF. The Interaction Queue MSFs, together with the non-queue MSFs, now always provide complete coverage of the mediation time up to first handling, since Genesys Info Mart always creates an MSF for the first Interaction Queue that an inbound interaction enters. However, there might still be gaps in mediation following first handling, in scenarios where the first Interaction Queue that the interaction enters during subsequent mediation is not represented in Genesys Info Mart (because of the value that is set for the populate-mm-ixnqueue-facts option). If your deployment uses virtual queues and gapless mediation reporting is enabled (show-non-queue-mediation-mm=true), virtual-queue MSFs overlap with the non-queue MSFs.

The new option replaces expand-mediation-time-for-gapless, which has been discontinued. Previously, when expand-mediation-time-for-gapless=true, Genesys Info Mart adjusted the durations of Interaction Queue and virtual queue MSFs to eliminate gaps in mediation reporting. For more information, see the discussion about MEDIATION_DURATION on the Populating Mediation Segments page in the Genesys Info Mart User’s Guide, as well as the extended description of the show-non-queue-mediation-mm option.
New command-line parameter — A new -V command-line parameter displays the software version and related information, without starting Genesys Info Mart Server. You can use either an uppercase letter (V) or lowercase letter (v).

Introduced in 8.5.006

The following new features were added in the 8.5.006 release:

New user-data propagation rule — A new propagation rule, IRF_ROUTE, enhances the flexibility of user-data reporting by storing the final KVP value that is present during mediation of an interaction.
Enhanced outbound fact reporting — In eServices outbound scenarios where an outbound interaction is originated outside the scope of eServices (for example, by OCS) and is placed into an Interaction Queue, and then is handled and sent by a strategy without agent involvement, an IRF record is now created to record the strategy's handling of the interaction.
Enhanced dialing target reporting — For voice interactions, if an IRF row represents a resource initiating an interaction or consultation, a new IRF column (TARGET_ADDRESS) records the target media address that received the interaction or consultation.

Introduced in 8.5.005

The following new features were added in the 8.5.005 release:

Genesys Callback reporting — Genesys Info Mart now supports reporting on Genesys Callback activity on voice, web, or mobile channels, in deployments with Genesys Mobile Services (GMS). Genesys Info Mart support for Genesys Callback reporting is provided out-of-box.

Callback applications provide Callback-related data that Genesys Info Mart processes and stores in dedicated CALLBACK_* tables, which were initially introduced in an earlier Genesys Info Mart release.

Genesys Callback reporting requires Interaction Concentrator 8.1.506.07 or higher and GMS 8.5.105.12 or higher, with Genesys Callback properly configured.
Data Export — A new job, Job_ExportGIM, enables you to incrementally export data from the Info Mart database into .csv files. The job exports data from the dimensional model fact and dimension tables, including custom fact extension tables, and creates a .zip archive containing individual .csv files for each table. This Data Export functionality is available for Genesys Engage cloud deployments; contact your Genesys representative for more information.

Introduced in 8.5.004

The following new features were added in the 8.5.004 release:

Focus Time reporting — Genesys Info Mart now supports reporting of agent focus time. Focus time is calculated by Genesys Workspace Desktop Edition (WDE). For more information, see Focus Duration in the Workspace Desktop Edition Deployment Guide.
Multiple interactions can be active on an agent desktop, but only one interaction has the agent's focus at any given moment. For each of an agent's active interactions, the focus time indicates the total amount of time the agent was focused on that particular interaction.

To support this functionality, you require WDE release 8.5.112.08 or higher and Interaction Concentrator release 8.1.507.06 or higher.
For information about the database schema changes that support this functionality, see Focus time reporting in the Genesys Info Mart Release Note.
Reporting on multiple routing attempts — In deployments with the SIP Server configuration option divert-on-ringing set to false, Genesys Info Mart now associates multiple routing attempts with the same mediation in scenarios when multiple attempts are made to route a call from a virtual queue. The same MEDIATION_SEGMENT_ID value is used in the IRF records for all routing attempts. The technical result of Redirected/RouteOnNoAnswer is reported for all but the last routing attempt, if the attempts were unsuccessful.
To support this functionality, you require SIP Server release 8.1.102.13 and Interaction Concentrator release 8.1.509.07. While no changes are required in Genesys Info Mart configuration, you must enable two Interaction Concentrator configuration options, use-server-partyuuid and ring-divert.
Indicating which party ended chat — Genesys Info Mart now stores data that enables you to determine who ended a chat session. To support this functionality, you require Interaction Concentrator release 8.1.507.06 or higher. For information about the database schema changes that support this functionality, see Indicate which party ended chat in the Genesys Info Mart Release Note.
ASM engage duration reporting — In Outbound VoIP environments, with Outbound Contact campaigns running in an Active Switching Matrix (ASM) dialing mode, the time that the engaged agent waits to be connected to the customer (ASM engage duration) is now reported separately from regular talk time:
- Two new columns, ASM_COUNT and ASM_ENGAGE_DURATION, have been added to the INTERACTION_RESOURCE_FACT (IRF) table.
- A new configuration option, No results, in the [gim-etl-populate] section controls population of the new columns.
- The GSW_CALL_TYPE key has been added to the list of Outbound Contact KVPs in the attached data specification sample, ccon_adata_spec_GIM_example.xml.
Translation Support—Through Genesys Info Mart Manager, which is included on the Genesys Info Mart CD, Genesys Info Mart supports the following language packs:
- French (Canada): Genesys Info Mart Manager 8.5.004.01

Introduced in 8.5.003

The following new features were added in the 8.5.003 release:

Tenant metric enhancements — This release introduces a number of enhancements that allow Tenant metrics to include active multimedia interactions that have not yet been handled:
- Two new columns, ANCHOR_ID and ANCHOR_SDT_KEY, are added to the INTERACTION_FACT table.
- Genesys Info Mart creates a MEDIATION_SEGMENT_FACT (MSF) record for the first Interaction Queue that an inbound interaction enters, even if the populate-mm-ixnqueue-facts configuration option is set to false (which is the default value). Because of this change in MSF population, at least one record in either INTERACTION_RESOURCE_FACT (IRF) or MSF table now represents an active multimedia interaction.
  
  Note: In deployments with populate-mm-ixnqueue-facts = false, custom reports might need to be modified to exclude the first Interaction Queue activity.
- Two new configuration options are added to the [gim-etl] section of the Genesys Info Mart Application to enable user data storage for all mediation resources, link-msf-userdata-voice (for voice mediations) and link-msf-userdata-mm (for multimedia mediations). The default value for these two options is false.
  
  Note: Because storing extra user data can have performance implications, Genesys recommends that you use these options only when absolutely required. In many deployments you can instead specify link-msf-userdata for the desired queues.
- The default value of the expand-mediation-for-gapless option, in the [gim-transformation] section, has been changed from false to true. This change ensures that there is no gap during user data collection for mediations of active multimedia interactions that have not yet been handled.
Multimedia processing improvement — In eServices deployments, Genesys Info Mart now correctly processes scenarios that include a late reply to an e-mail interaction. When a multimedia interaction that represents the reply is created after the parent interaction has already been terminated, the transformation job now processes the child interaction as a separate interaction. In this scenario, the transformation job creates a new record in the INTERACTION_FACT table with a new INTERACTION_ID value. If the parent interaction has not been terminated, the child interaction uses the same INTERACTION_ID value as the parent interaction. Previously, the metrics related to a late reply could be lost because the transformation job might have discarded the child interactions during processing.
Unicode characters support — For deployments with Oracle and PostgreSQL RDBMS, this release of Genesys Info Mart adds supports for data storage in multiple languages. To take advantage of Unicode characters, the Info Mart database must be created with UTF-8 encoding. To enable this functionality on Oracle, the fields with the varchar data types now use the explicit CHAR character length semantics.
Reporting on Hunt Group call distribution — Genesys Info Mart now supports reporting on Genesys SIP Server calls that are distributed through Hunt Groups with parallel or sequential distribution strategy. For accurate data representation, Interaction Concentrator release 8.1.504.04 or later is required.
Purging enhancement — The maintenance job now purges configuration fact data from GIDB and relevant fact tables. A new configuration option, days-to-keep-cfg-facts, sets the retention policy for configuration fact data.
Visibility of Aggregation status — For deployments that include Reporting and Analytics Aggregates (RAA), Genesys Info Mart Manager (GIM Manager) now displays Aggregation latency in the ETL status view.
Note: This feature requires the new type of data storage available in RAA release 8.1.400.23 or later (aggregate data formerly stored in tables with the prefix AG2_* is now stored in tables with the prefix AGT_* and is presented through views with the prefix AG2_*).
Reporting on Post-Call Survey user data — For the deployments that rely on Genesys Info Mart for reporting on Post-Call Survey user data, two new scripts are added to the Genesys Info Mart installation package:
- make_gim_post_call_survey.sql — for use with nonpartitioned databases
- make_gim_post_call_survey_partitioned.sql — for use with partitioned databases

Introduced in 8.5.002

The following new features were added in the 8.5.002 release:

Reporting on media-neutral agent states — Genesys Info Mart now optionally reports the summarized states for each agent across all media—referred to as media-neutral agent states. To populate media-neutral agent states, Genesys Info Mart takes already transformed summarized states for each media as the source data. The highest-priority state in effect for any of the agent's media is reported as the media-neutral state for the agent. A new configuration option, populate-media-neutral-sm-facts in the [gim-etl-populate] configuration section, which is set to false by default, controls reporting on media-neutral agent states. A new fact table, SM_MEDIA_NEUTRAL_STATE_FACT, stores the media-neutral agent states.
Gapless mediation reporting — In eServices deployments in which routing activities are performed without the use of Virtual Queues, an optional capability allows you to report on routing activities without gaps in mediation time.
Enhanced visibility of ETL status — Genesys Info Mart now provides information about latency for each functional area. Latency, which is expressed in the hh:mm:ss format, reflects the time elapsed since the occurrence of the last contact center event for which reporting data has been successfully stored in the Info Mart database. Access these details in Genesys Info Mart Manager release 8.5.0, using the ETL Status view.
Call Detail Record data reporting — Genesys Info Mart now provides Call Detail Record (CDR) data. You can access CDR data using a new database view, CDR, which is created within the Info Mart database schema, to conveniently research the call volume or look for specific records by ID.
New user-data propagation rule — A new user-data propagation rule, IRF_INITIAL, enhances the flexibility of user-data reporting with the capability to store the KVP value that is associated with the interaction when the interaction enters the resource that is the subject of the IRF or MSF record.

Introduced in 8.5.001

The following new features were added in the 8.5.001 release:

Support for reporting on additional interaction scenarios:
- Introduced Transfer — In voice deployments with business processes that require a transferring agent to introduce the customer to another agent before transferring the call, Genesys Info Mart can now report the scenario as a special case of transfer, instead of as a short conference. A new configuration option, introduced-transfer-threshold in the [gim-transformation] section, and new technical descriptor combinations, using a role reason or result reason of IntroducedTransfer, support this functionality.
- Chat Consultation — In eServices deployments with agent desktop applications, such as Workspace Desktop Edition (formerly Interaction Workspace [IWS]), that offer a chat consultation feature by setting a visibility mode on the conference request, Genesys Info Mart can now distinguish whether an agent is being invited into a chat interaction for a conference or for a consultation, and adjust reporting accordingly. Support for reporting on chat consultation requires ICON 8.1.500.04 or higher.
- Chat Conference or Consultation through a Queue — In eServices deployments with agent desktop applications, such as Workspace Desktop Edition, that use subordinate auxiliary interactions to implement a chat conference or consultation through a queue, Genesys Info Mart now blends the main and auxiliary interactions to present a simplified reporting result.
Multimedia performance improvements — To improve performance in multimedia deployments that do not need to track interaction threads, Genesys Info Mart no longer populates thread-related metrics by default. A new configuration option, populate-thread-facts in the [gim-etl-populate] section, enables you to explicitly activate this functionality, if desired.
Data management enhancements — To assist in exporting and archiving data, audit keys have been added to user-data fact extension tables.
Operating System changes
- Support for VMware ESXi 6.0 and 6.5 has been added.
- Support for the following operating systems has been discontinued:
  - HP-UX (all versions)
  - IBM AIX 5.3
  - RedHat Enterprise Linux 4
  - Solaris/SPARC version 9
  - Windows Server 2003
Localization Support—Through Genesys Info Mart Manager, which is included on the Genesys Info Mart 8.5.0 CD, Genesys Info Mart supports the following localizations:
- French (Canada): Genesys Info Mart 8.5.001.17, using Genesys Info Mart Manager 8.1.400.15

What's New in Genesys Decisions for 9.0

The following new features were added in the 9.0 release:

January 18, 2019

Extended Outbound Adapter — Genesys Decisions includes a new outbound adapter. Decisions continues to include the existing Outbound Phone adapter, but the new Extended Outbound adapter imports additional data such as Connects per attempt, List Size, Total Time for Wrong Party Connects, and Total Time for Right Party Connects. The Extended Outbound adapter specification file contains detailed information about the file requirements.
Database Timeout is added to configuration files during upgrade — The database timeout property is now added to the configuration files when you upgrade your Decisions installation.

September 25, 2018

Advanced Forecasting — Genesys Decisions now connects to the Decisions Cloud Service. The Decisions application sends historical data to the service. Based on that data, the service determines outliers and missing data, and determines which forecasting method to use and which parameters to use with the selected method. The results are then returned to Decisions and displayed. The following additional functionality is included with the new Decisions Forecasting module:
- Apply Forecast Scenarios to Planning Scenarios — Once you are satisfied with your forecast scenario and its results, you can apply that to your planning scenario. From within the Decisions application, you select a forecast scenario from a list of published scenarios and apply that to your planning scenario. Applying a forecast scenario populates the planning scenario metrics with the forecast results.
- Forecast Modifications — The forecast results that are returned from the Decisions Cloud Service are based on your historical data. If there are future events planned, such as a marketing release that will increase call volume by 10%, then you can apply modifications to the forecast results to take the future events into account, as well as the historical data.
- View Detailed Forecast Data — In addition to showing the results of a forecast scenario, you can also use the Decisions application to see the forecast model used for the results, the parameters selected for that model, the forecast error, and the points that were designated as outliers and missing.
- View Historical Values used to Generate Forecast Results — In the Decisions Forecasting module, you can view the historical values (both graphically and in tabular format) that the Decisions Cloud Service used to generate results. Use this information to help you understand what was happening in the past that contributed to the resulting forecast.

You can now duplicate a condition set being applied to a selection rule. Related Documentation: Conditions and Condition Sets

On the Campaigns dashboard, the Filtered cell now includes the total number of filtered devices from the contact list, in addition to the total number of filtered records. The count is displayed as Records Filtered/Devices Filtered. Related Documentation: View Campaign Statistics

On the Campaigns dashboard, the List Size cell now includes the total number of devices contained in the contact list, in addition to the total number of unique records. The count is displayed as Record Count/Device Count. Related Documentation: View Campaign Statistics

On the campaigns dashboard, the Expand All option, which is used to view campaign groups and contact lists associated with each campaign template, now functions as follows:
- Click Expand All once to view all campaign groups associated with each campaign template.
- Click Expand All again to view all contact lists associated with each campaign group.
The Collapse All functionality remains unchanged. Related Documentation: Search or Filter Campaign Statistics

Contact lists exported from CX Contact now include compliance classification data for each device (record in chain), including:
- Wireless
- Duplicate Position
- Duplicate List
- International
- Ends in 00
- Ends in 000
- TPS/DNC
- Toll Free
- Duplicate Contact
- Contains Extension
- VoIP

Contact lists exported from CX Contact now store all devices associated with each record in a chain.

You can now create a campaign group against an individual campaign template using the More Actions menu (displayed as an ellipsis) on the Campaigns dashboard. When you do this, the campaign template and associated parameters will automatically populate on the New Campaign Group page. Related Documentation: Create a Campaign Group

You can now duplicate attempt rules and location rules. The duplicated rule will inherit all settings from the original rule, but you can change any or all of them. If you do not change the name of the rule, it will inherit the name of the original rule, with _duplicate# appended to it. Related Documentation: Compliance Tools

The user interface now contains a context-sensitive Help tool that enables you to view Help content relative to the page you're viewing in the user interface. To access the tool, click the question mark icon in the top right-hand corner of the user interface.

The width of each menu on the General tab for a dialing profile, campaign template, and campaign group has increased by 50%.

New in 9.0.000.07

On the Treatment tab for a dialing profile, campaign template, or campaign group, you can now specify a URI to a stored SCXML treatment script. When you do this, the system applies all treatment configuration defined in the SCXML treatment script and ignores all treatment configuration previously defined in CX Contact.
For more information, refer to the SCXML-based Treatments page.

The new data mapping feature is an alternative to using an input specification file to map contact data to fields in a CX Contact contact list. You can create a data mapping schema for either a fixed-position file or a delimited file and then apply the schema to a list being imported into CX Contact via manual import or via list automation.
For detailed instructions, refer to the Create a Data Mapping Schema page.

For call treatments, the Increment retry option is no longer a mandatory option. Previously, if you selected Retry in from the Apply to Record menu, you had to define an increment value.

On the Campaigns dashboard, an icon now displays to the right of a campaign group name to indicate the type of dialing mode the campaign group uses. When you hover over the icon, the name of the dialing mode and associated dialing parameters display in a text box.
For more information, refer to the Create and Manage a Campaign Group page.

The media control icons on the Campaigns dashboard have increased in size and have changed in color. In addition, a new status bulb displays next to the media controls to indicate the status of the campaign group.
For more information, refer to the Create and Manage a Campaign Group page.

New in 9.0.000.06

You can now use the List Automation feature to schedule a contact list export. The file is exported out of CX Contact and sent to a remote FTP directory.
For a complete description of this feature, refer to the Create and Manage List Automation Tasks page in the CX Contact Help manual.

The new Device Escalation feature enables you to do any of the following when records in a contact list contain more than one device:
- Identify which device(s) should be contacted.
- Specify the order in which the devices should be contacted.
- Specify how to handle answering machine detection - drop the call, deliver the call to an agent, or send the call to a DN for treatment (for example, leave a pre-recorded message).
For a complete description of this feature, refer to the Apply Device Escalation page in the CX Contact Help manual.

In the Timezone source field, a new option, called Explicit, enables you to select a specific time zone for records in a contact list. When you apply this option, the system ignores all Contact and Device time zone assignments, so we do not recommend this option if your contact list contains international numbers or countries with multiple time zones.
For more information, see the Time Zone Assignment page in the CX Contact Help manual.

Support for the following operating system, databases, and browser. See the CX Contact page in the Genesys Supported Operating Environment Reference Guide for more detailed information.

- PostgreSQL 9.5
