Industry pack: BPO and Call Center ​

BPO and Call Center adds what a bpo and call center organisation needs on top of HCM Core: campaign day, quality score, schedule adherence, agent attrition. Every screen carries charts, and the Overview answers the questions this industry asks first. It works with the people already in HCM Core and Employee; it changes nothing there.

Overview

1. Who uses it ​

RoleWhat they do

2. Before you start ​

  • Installed plugin: hcm-industry-bpo-call-center (free tier; needs HCM Foundation and Employee). No licence feature has to be granted.
  • Access: tenant administrators can use every screen; the Overview needs a tenant administrator or Report.View.
  • Trial data: in a trial tenant, generate the BPO and Call Center industry pack in Demo Data: 12 campaign day, 10 quality score, 10 schedule adherence, 8 agent attrition.

3. Set up ​

  1. Open BPO > Campaigns Daily and enter per campaign per day: calls offered, answered, answered in target time and handle time.
  2. Record Quality Scores from call evaluations.
  3. Record Schedule Adherence per agent per day.
  4. Record Agent Attrition with reason and tenure.

4. Daily use ​

4.1 Campaign day ​

4.2 Quality score ​

A call evaluation: score out of 100 and the area that lost points. Open Quality score in the sidebar under Industry Pack, BPO and Call Center. Choose Add quality score to add a record, click a row to change or delete it. The fields are: agent, campaign, score, weakest area, evaluated on.

Quality score

4.3 Schedule adherence ​

How closely an agent followed the schedule on a day. Low adherence undermines service level. Open Schedule adherence in the sidebar under Industry Pack, BPO and Call Center. Choose Add schedule adherence to add a record, click a row to change or delete it. The fields are: agent, campaign, date, scheduled minutes, adherent minutes.

Schedule adherence

4.4 Agent attrition ​

An agent who left, with the reason and months of tenure. Call-centre attrition is high and costly. Open Agent attrition in the sidebar under Industry Pack, BPO and Call Center. Choose Add agent attrition to add a record, click a row to change or delete it. The fields are: agent, campaign, reason, left on, months in the job.

Every list page also has charts of its own records (by status or category, and a trend), and the platform grid offers search, paging, column choice and export.

6. On a phone or tablet ​

Every screen works on a phone: tiles, charts and lists stack one per row, and the add and edit dialogs fit the screen.

7. Rules and limits ​

  • Service level here is the share of offered calls answered in the target time, as entered; some contracts use answered calls as the base.
  • Attrition rate needs average headcount per campaign; the pack counts leavers and shows reasons and tenure.
  • The figures are only as good as the records entered. Benchmarks differ between sources, so none is hard-coded as a target: read the figures against your own history.

8. Troubleshooting ​

SymptomCause and fix

The Overview says forbiddenYour login is not a tenant administrator and lacks Report.View.
