Call Queues are a call center functionality that allow a large number of incoming calls to be sent to an auto attendant, which then can forward calls to agents. A queue will hold incoming calls while agents are on active calls. As new calls join the queue, the system will position the caller. The caller will hear an announcement about their position in the queue and the estimated waiting time. The waiting time is calculated as (average call duration) / (maximum number of connected calls) * (total number of callers before them in the queue). After the anouncement, the user will be played the specificed music on hold. Every minute thereafter the system will update the user on their current position in the queue with an estimated waiting time. If a call comes into the queue and the specified number of agents (Step 9) is more than active calls, then the system will attempt to connect the user to an agent by ringing phones that belong to the huntgroup for that call queue. However, if a call comes into the queue and the specified number of agents is less than or equal to the number of active calls, the user will remain in the queue until an agent is available to take a call. The system will check the queue for an incoming call once every 60 seconds.
