might look to see if carrier can do Release Line Transfer i.e. 2 b channel. I have never set this up, but that would free up trunks

I asked and was told it was not applicable to the IVR.

Hi! Longtime lurker hoping I can get some knowledge dropped on me.

We are having an issue with maxing out available lines on our PRI. Callers into our IVR are presented a menu and given an option to transfer their call to an external party. This obviously takes up 2 trunks until the transfer is complete. Some callers are getting dropped, however, because there is no available trunk to use to send them to the external party. While we work on increasing trunk capacity (and arguing with the business owners about this workflow) I am trying to find out more details on some options in our MiCC and reporting that will help inform us on what's happening:

1) There is a "camp on busy" option in the transfer action that we are considering enabling. If enabled, where can we see how many calls are camped? What does the caller hear when camped? Do callers ever time out when camped? I asked our local rep for more detail but when he escalated to support he just got back the copied and pasted tool tip text from MiCC.

2) When testing during a busy period, I received an IVR Busy error on my office phone. The hunt group only appears to have 5 members. What is the best practice to scale this? Do these hunt group members only get used for inbound calls or could they also be causing the dropped external transfer originating from the IVR?

3) Is there any report I can pull that would show me the external transfer attempts that are failing?

In the properties of the Transfer action you should be able to simply enter a number in the destination field and click on the "External Transfer" checkbox.
