500-052 Practice Exam Questions with Answers Deploying Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Certification

 The two releases that require physical media to be ordered and received prior to patching or upgrading Cisco Unified Contact Center Express (UCCX) are the major release and the service update. A major release is a new version of UCCX that introduces significant changes and new features. A service update is a maintenance release that fixes bugs and enhances the functionality of UCCX. Both the major release and the service update are available as ISO images that can be downloaded from the Cisco website or ordered as physical DVDs12

The other options do not require physical media to be ordered and received prior to patching or upgrading UCCX:

• Minor release: A minor release is a new version of UCCX that has minor changes and enhancements. A minor release is available as a COP file that can be downloaded from the Cisco website and applied to the UCCX system using the CLI or the web interface12
• Engineering special: An engineering special is a patch that addresses a specific issue or customer request. An engineering special is available as a COP file that can be downloaded from the Cisco website and applied to the UCCX system using the CLI or the web interface12

This statement is false because a subflow cannot access all variables in the calling script, unless they are passed as input parameters or global variables. A subflow has its own local variables that are not visible to the calling script. A subflow can only access the variables that are mapped to its input parameters or declared as global variables1.

The other statements are true because:

• B. When the Call Subflow step executes, you can transfer values of variables from the calling flow to the subflow. This statement is true because you can use the Input Mappingstab of the Call Subflow step to map the variables from the calling flow to the input parameters of the subflow. This allows you to pass data to the subflow and initialize its variables2.
• C. After the Call Subflow step executes, you can transfer values of variables from the subflow to the calling flow. This statement is true because you can use the Output Mappings tab of the Call Subflow step to map the variables from the subflow to the variables of the calling flow. This allows you to return data from the subflow and update the variables of the calling flow3.
• D. The same subflow can be invoked from different scripts. This statement is true because a subflow is an independent script that can be reused in other scripts. You can call the same subflow from different scripts using the Call Subflow step and specify the subflow name and location4.

According to the Cisco Finesse Administration Guide, Release 12.0 (1), Finesse supports the following number of phone books:

• 10 global phone books
• 300 team phone books The system supports a total of 50,000 contacts. The total number of contacts per agent across all phone books is limited to 15001. This means that an agent can access up to 1500 contacts from the phone books that are assigned to them. If an agent has more than 1500 contacts, only the first 1500 will be loaded and displayed on the Finesse out of the box phone book gadget2. If a custom gadget is built using the Finesse API, it can show all the contacts by using the range feature of the API and grabbing 1500 increments3. References:

 In a high availability over WAN deployment, the ASR or TTS servers cannot be across the WAN from the active Cisco Unified CCX site. This is because the ASR or TTS servers require a low latency connection to the Unified CCX engine, and the WAN link may introduce delays or packet loss that can affect the quality and performance of the speech recognition or text-to-speech services. Therefore, the ASR or TTS servers must be co-located with the active Unified CCX site, and they must fail over to the standby site if the active site goes down. References: Deploying Cisco Unified Contact Center Express (UCCXD) v6.0 - Module 1: Design a Cisco Unified Contact Center Express System Deployment - Lesson 4: High Availability and Network Design - Topic: Unified CCX High Availability over WAN1

The Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Control Center is a web-based interface that allows administrators to monitor and control the status of various Unified CCX services, engines, and components. The Control Center displays information such as the service name, description, status, start time, and date and time of most recent failure. The Control Center also provides options to start, stop, or restart services, engines, and components, as well as view logs and trace files. The Control Center does not show information about database replication status, system parameters configuration, or Cisco Unified Communications Manager cluster status, which are available from other Unified CCX tools or interfaces. References:

• Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Administration and Operations Guide, Release 12.5 (1), Chapter: Unified CCX System Management, Section: Control Center

In a Cisco Unified CCX application script, a number is read from an external database. The number must then be played out as part of a prompt. The Cisco Unified CCX Editor step that creates a new prompt that can play out the number is the Create Generated Prompt step12

The Create Generated Prompt step is a media step that allows you to create a prompt from a text or a number. The step uses the Text-to-Speech (TTS) engine or the Number-to-Speech (NTS) engine to generate a voice prompt that can be played to the caller. The step has two tabs: General and Settings. The General tab allows you to specify the input type (text or number), the input value (a variable or a literal), and the output prompt (a variable that stores the generated prompt). The Settings tab allows you to configure the TTS or NTS settings, such as the language, the voice, and the speed12

The other options are not correct:

• Create Container Prompt: The Create Container Prompt step is a media step that allows you to create a prompt from a list of existing prompts. The step concatenates the prompts into a single prompt that can be played to the caller. The step has one tab: General. The General tab allows you to specify the input prompts (a list of variables or literals) and the output prompt (a variable that stores the concatenated prompt)12
• Create Language Prompt: The Create Language Prompt step is a media step that allows you to create a prompt from a language-specific prompt. The step selects the prompt that matches the language of the current session and assigns it to a variable. The step has one tab: General. The General tab allows you to specify the input prompt (a variable or a literal that contains a language-specific prompt) and the output prompt (a variable that stores the selected prompt)12
• Create Conditional Prompt: The Create Conditional Prompt step is a media step that allows you to create a prompt based on a condition. The step evaluates the condition and assigns the corresponding prompt to a variable. The step has two tabs: General and Settings. The General tab allows you to specify the condition (a Boolean expression) and the output prompt (a variable that stores the conditional prompt). The Settings tab allows you to specify the true prompt and the false prompt (variables or literals that contain the prompts for the true and false cases)12

A supervisor who does not have administrative privilege can perform the following Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Application Administration tasks:

• Remove a skill from a CSQ: A skill is a competency that an agent possesses, such as language, product knowledge, or technical expertise. A Contact Service Queue (CSQ) is a logical grouping of agents based on their skills. A supervisor can remove a skill from a CSQ by using the Cisco Unified CCX Administration web interface and navigating to Subsystems > RmCm > Contact Service Queues. For more information on how to remove a skill from a CSQ, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Administration Guide, Release 10.0 (1), Chapter: Unified CCX Application Configuration, Section: Contact Service Queues.
• Enable automatic work on a CSQ: Automatic work is a feature that allows agents to automatically enter the work state after they finish a call or chat. This prevents the agents from receiving new contacts until they are ready. A supervisor can enable automatic work on a CSQ by using the Cisco Unified CCX Administration web interface and navigating to Subsystems > RmCm > Contact Service Queues. For more information on how to enable automatic work on a CSQ, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Administration Guide, Release 10.0 (1), Chapter: Unified CCX Application Configuration, Section: Contact Service Queues.
• Modify the skill competence level of an agent: The skill competence level is a numerical rating that indicates the proficiency of an agent in a certain skill. The skill competence level can range from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest). A supervisor can modify the skill competence level of an agent by using the Cisco Unified CCX Administration web interface and navigating to Subsystems > RmCm > Resources. For more information on how to modify the skill competence level of an agent, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Administration Guide, Release 10.0 (1), Chapter: Unified CCX Application Configuration, Section: Resources.

The following tasks cannot be performed by a supervisor who does not have administrative privilege:

• Delete a resource group: A resource group is a collection of agents who share common characteristics, such as location, function, or availability. A resource group can be used to organize agents for reporting and administration purposes. Only an administrator can delete a resource group by using the Cisco Unified CCX Administration web interface and navigating to Subsystems > RmCm > Resource Groups. For more information on how to delete a resource group, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Administration Guide, Release 10.0 (1), Chapter: Unified CCX Application Configuration, Section: Resource Groups.
• Create a resource: A resource is an entity that can handle customer contacts, such as an agent, a supervisor, or an IVR port. A resource can be associated with one or more resource groups, teams, and skills. Only an administrator can create a resource by using the Cisco Unified CCX Administration web interface and navigating to Subsystems > RmCm > Resources. For more information on how to create a resource, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Administration Guide, Release 10.0 (1), Chapter: Unified CCX Application Configuration, Section: Resources.
• Delete a skill: A skill is a competency that an agent possesses, such as language, product knowledge, or technical expertise. A skill can be assigned to one or more agents and CSQs. Only an administrator can delete a skill by using the Cisco Unified CCX Administration web interface and navigating to Subsystems > RmCm > Skills. For more information on how to delete a skill, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Administration Guide, Release 10.0 (1), Chapter: Unified CCX Application Configuration, Section: Skills. References:

 The three operations that can be performed within the Cisco Finesse IP Phone Agent (IPPA) are:

• A. A supervisor can use Finesse IPPA to act as an agent and accept calls. This is true because Finesse IPPA does not support supervisor tasks such as monitor, barge, and intercept, but supervisors can sign in and perform all agent tasks on their IP Phones. To perform supervisor tasks for Finesse IPPA agents, supervisors must sign in to the Finesse desktop and follow the same steps that they use for the Finesse desktop agents1.
• D. An agent using Finesse IPPA can enter Not Ready, Sign-out, and Wrap-up reasons. This is true because Finesse IPPA allows agents to change their state from Ready to Not Ready, sign out from the Finesse service, and apply wrap-up reasons after handling a call. Agents can select the appropriate reason codes from the list of available options on their IP Phones2.
• E. Agents can log in to Finesse IPPA with Cisco Unified CCX deployed using a Standard license. This is true because Finesse IPPA is supported on all Cisco Unified CCX license packages, including Standard, Enhanced, and Premium. Agents can use Finesse IPPA regardless of the license package that is deployed on Cisco Unified CCX3.

The other options are not correct because:

• B. An agent can sign in to Finesse IPPA and initiate call recording. This is false because Finesse IPPA does not support call recording. Agents cannot initiate, stop, or pause call recording from their IP Phones. Call recording is only supported on the Finesse desktop in the browser4.
• C. A supervisor can sign in to Finesse IPPA and initiate call recording. This is false because Finesse IPPA does not support call recording. Supervisors cannot initiate, stop, or pause call recording from their IP Phones. Call recording is only supported on the Finesse desktop in the browser4.

Email is a feature that allows agents to handle customer emails from the Cisco Finesse desktop. Agents can receive, reply, transfer, and close email contacts. Agent Email is only available in the Premium package of Cisco Unified CCX, which provides the maximum level of customer interaction management. The Enhanced and Standard packages do not support Agent Email or other multichannel features such as chat and outbound. References: Deploying Cisco Unified Contact Center Express (UCCXD) v6.0 - Module 1: Design a Cisco Unified Contact Center Express System Deployment - Lesson 1: Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Product Overview - Topic: Cisco Unified CCX Product Packages1

Supervisor workflows are a feature of Cisco Finesse that allow supervisors to automate certain actions based on predefined criteria. For example, a supervisor can configure a workflow to send an email notification, play a sound, or launch a web page when a certain condition is met. The criteria that can be used to control supervisor workflows are based on the statistics of the skill groups or queues that the supervisor monitors. One of the criteria that can be used is the duration of the oldest call in queue, which indicates how long the longest waiting call has been in the queue. This criterion can help supervisors identify situations where the service level is not being met or the queue is overloaded, and take appropriate actions to resolve them. The other options, such as the length of time an agent is in the NotReady state, the number of agents logged in, or the number of calls abandoned, are not valid criteria for supervisor workflows. References: Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Administration and Operations Guide, Release 12.5 (1) SU2, Cisco Supervisor Desktop

 The application username is not an input that is required when you install Cisco Unified CCX. The application username is the username that you use to log in to the Cisco Unified CCX Administration web interface after the installation is complete. You can configure the application username during the initial system setup, which is a separate step from the installation. The other inputs, such as the platform administrator username, the IP address, the default language, and the time zone, are required during the installation process. You need to enter these inputs to configure the basic system parameters and network settings for the Unified CCX server. References := Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Install and Upgrade Guide, Release 12.5(1) SU2, Deploying Cisco Unified Contact Center Express (UCCXD) v6.0 Course Outline

 The three tasks that an agent can perform on the Cisco Agent Desktop are:

• Chat with an SME. An agent can chat with a subject matter expert (SME) using the Cisco Agent Desktop integrated chat feature. This feature allows the agent to see the presence status of SMEs and other critical members of the enterprise, and to initiate chat sessions with them without navigating away from the Agent Desktop. The agent can also transfer the chat session to another agent or SME, or escalate the chat session to a voice or video call1.
• Transfer a call to an SME. An agent can transfer a call to an SME using the Cisco Agent Desktop call control buttons. The agent can select the destination SME from a list of availablecontacts or enter the SME’s phone number. The agent can also consult with the SME before transferring the call, or transfer the call directly2.
• Start a Cisco WebEx session with an SME. An agent can start a Cisco WebEx session with an SME using the Cisco Agent Desktop WebEx button. This feature allows the agent to invite the SME to join a web-based collaboration session that supports voice, video, and screen sharing. The agent can also invite the customer to join the WebEx session if needed3.

The other options are not correct because:

• B. Send an email to an SME. An agent cannot send an email to an SME using the Cisco Agent Desktop. The email feature of the Cisco Agent Desktop is only for handling incoming and outgoing emails from customers, not from internal contacts. The agent can use other applications, such as Cisco Unified Personal Communicator or Cisco Jabber, to send emails to SMEs4.
• C. Send enterprise data to an SME. An agent cannot send enterprise data to an SME using the Cisco Agent Desktop. The enterprise data feature of the Cisco Agent Desktop is only for displaying customer-related information, such as account number, name, address, and so on, that are passed from the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express server. The agent cannot modify or forward the enterprise data to SMEs5.

 Cisco Unified CCX Premium provides the most advanced features and capabilities for contact center agents and supervisors, including IVR scripting, database integration, keystroke macros, CRM integration, outbound preview dialer, and agent email and chat. Cisco Unified CCX Standard and Enhanced do not support keystroke macros, CRM integration, or agent email and chat. Cisco Unified IP IVR does not support agent desktop functions or outbound preview dialer. Cisco Unified CCX Enterprise is not a valid option, as Cisco Unified CCX only comes in Standard, Enhanced, and Premium versions. References: Cisco Unified Contact Center Express 12.5 Data Sheet, [Deploying Cisco Unified Contact Center Express (UCCXD) v6.0]

The Cisco Unified CCX Sizing Tool is a web-based tool that allows partners to validate the parameters of a target Cisco Unified CCX configuration, such as the number of inbound agents, the number of inbound and outbound IVR ports, the number of historical reporting users, and so on. The tool also recommends servers based on the validated configuration, which is a prerequisite for the Cisco assessment-to-quality bid assurance process. The tool can be accessed from the Cisco Unified CCX Partner Central1. The tool helps partners to design a Cisco Unified CCX system that meets the customer requirements and avoids oversizing or undersizing the system. References := Cisco Unified CCX Partner Central

The CallSubflow step and the Trigger Application step are two Cisco Unified CCX steps that can invoke another Cisco Unified CCX application script. The CallSubflow step allows a script to call another script as a subflow, which can return values to the calling script. The Trigger Application step allows a script to trigger another application by using one of its associated triggers, which can be either a Unified CM Telephony trigger or an HTTP trigger. Both steps can be used to modularize the script logic and reuse existing scripts. References: Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Editor Step Reference Guide, Release 12.0(1) - Call Subflow Step 1 and Trigger Application Step 2

The customer must purchase 30 outbound IVR ports and 30 agent seats in addition to the 200 Cisco Unified Center Express Premium agent seats. The outbound IVR ports are required to run the outbound IVR campaign, which can make outbound calls to customers and play prerecorded messages or collect customer inputs. The agent seats are required to handle the outbound calls that are transferred to agents based on the customer’s choice or the campaign configuration. The outbound IVR ports and the agent seats are licensed separately and are not included in the Premium agent seats1, page 2-3, 2, page 4-1. References: Solution Design Guide for Cisco Unified Contact Center Express, Release 12.5 (1) SU1, Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Features Guide, Release 12.5 (1)

 To support presence integration, an administrator must perform the following tasks on Cisco Desktop Administrator:

• Assign a contact list to a workflow group: A contact list is a collection of subject matter experts (SMEs) who can assist agents with customer inquiries. A workflow group is a logical grouping ofagents who share the same configuration settings, such as workflows, reason codes, phone books, and contact lists. By assigning a contact list to a workflow group, the administrator enables the agents in that group to see the presence status of the SMEs in the contact list and initiate chat sessions with them.
• Assign an SME to a contact list: An SME is a person who has expertise in a specific domain or topic and can provide assistance to agents or customers. An SME can be an internal or external user who is registered with Cisco Unified Presence. By assigning an SME to a contact list, the administrator adds the SME’s contact information, such as name, phone number, and email address, to the contact list. The administrator can also specify the SME’s availability schedule and skills. References:

The two steps that check out a database connection from the connection pool are DB Read and DB Write. The DB Read step executes a SQL query on a database and returns the result in a ResultSet variable. The DB Write step executes a SQL update, insert, or delete statement on a database and returns the number of rows affected. Both steps require a database connection to perform their operations. The database connection is checked out from the connection pool when the step is executed and checked back in when the step is completed1, pages 4-8 and 4-9. The following steps do not check out a database connection from the connection pool:

• DB Get: This step retrieves a database connection from the connection pool and stores it in a DB Connection variable. The step does not execute any SQL statement on the database. The database connection remains checked out until it is explicitly released by the DB Release step1, page 4-7.
• DB Release: This step releases a database connection that was previously checked out by the DB Get step. The step does not execute any SQL statement on the database. The database connection is returned to the connection pool and becomes available for other steps to use1, page 4-10. References: Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Editor Step Reference Guide, Release 11.6(2)

Cisco Unified CCX Premium is the product that the organization needs for the capability of collecting an account number from a customer via IVR prompting, and then using a keystroke macro to insert the account number into the agent’s CRM desktop application. Cisco Unified CCX Premium is the highest-level package of Cisco Unified CCX, which offers the most features and functions for customer contact interaction management. Cisco Unified CCX Premium supports advanced IVR capabilities, such as database integration, custom scripting, and HTTP-based data exchange, which enable the organization to collect and validate customer information from various sources. Cisco Unified CCX Premium also supports CTI integration, which allows the organization to use keystroke macros to automate the interaction between the agent desktop and the CRM desktop application. Keystroke macros can help the organization to improve agent productivity, customer satisfaction, and data accuracy, by reducing the need for manual data entry and lookup. Cisco Unified CCX Premium also supports outbound campaigns, email and chat interactions, quality management, and workforce management, which are not available in the lower-level packages of Cisco Unified CCX. Cisco Unified CCX Standard and Enhanced do not support the capability of using keystroke macros to insert the account number into the agent’s CRM desktop application, as they do not support CTI integration. Cisco Unified CCX Enterprise is not a valid product name, as Cisco Unified CCX is only available in Standard, Enhanced, and Premium packages. Cisco Unified IP IVR is not a product name, but a feature of Cisco Unified CCX, which provides basic IVR functionality, such as call routing, queuing, and self-service. References: Cisco Unified Contact Center Express 11.6 Data Sheet - Cisco1 Deploying Cisco Unified Contact Center Express (UCCXD) v6.0 - Learning Tree2 Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Design Guide, Release 8.0(1), Chapter 2: Unified CCX Product Overview, Section 2.1: Unified CCX Product Packages, Page 1

To send an HTTP message, you should use the following Cisco Unified CCX steps:

• Send HTTP Response: This step allows the script to send an HTTP response to the client that initiated the HTTP request. The step specifies the HTTP status code, the content type, and the body of the response. The step can also set or delete cookies in the response. For more information on how to use the Send HTTP Response step, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Editor Step Reference, Release 12.5 (1), Chapter: Steps, Section: Send HTTP Response Step.
• Create URL Document: This step allows the script to create a URL document that contains the URL of a web page or application. The step specifies the URL, the method (GET or POST), and the parameters to be sent with the request. The step can also set or delete cookies in the request. The URL document can be used as an input for other steps, such as Write Document or Place Call. For more information on how to use the Create URL Document step, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Editor Step Reference, Release 12.5 (1), Chapter: Steps, Section: Create URL Document Step.

The following steps cannot be used to send an HTTP message:

• Write Document: This step allows the script to write a document to a file or a stream. The step specifies the document, the destination, and the encoding. The document can be any type of document, such as XML, plain text, or URL. The destination can be a local file, a remote file, or a media stream. The step can be used to write a URL document to a file or a stream, but it cannot send an HTTP message by itself. For more information on how to use the Write Document step, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Editor Step Reference, Release 12.5 (1), Chapter: Steps, Section: Write Document Step.
• Place Call: This step allows the script to place a call to a destination. The step specifies the calling address, the called address, the media termination, and the timeout. The calling address and the called address can be phone numbers, SIP URIs, or URL documents. The media termination can be a contact, a prompt, or a document. The step can be used to place a call to a URL document, but it cannot send an HTTP message by itself. For more information on how to use the Place Call step, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Editor Step Reference, Release 12.5 (1), Chapter: Steps, Section: Place Call Step.
• Cache Document: This step allows the script to cache a document in the memory of the Unified CCX server. The step specifies the document and the cache key. The document can be any type of document, such as XML, plain text, or URL. The cache key is a unique identifier for the document in the cache. The step can be used to cache a URL document, but it cannot send an HTTP message by itself. For more information on how to use the Cache Document step, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Editor Step Reference, Release 12.5 (1), Chapter: Steps, Section: Cache Document Step. References:
