Detailed Description
The invention is further illustrated by the following examples, which are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
Example 1
Referring to fig. 1, the interactive voice response system includes an IVR server 11, an interface server 12, a database 13, and a plurality of extension sets, such as a first extension set 14 and a second extension set 15. The interactive voice response system further comprises an external number acquisition unit 101, an extension inquiry unit 102, a voice broadcast unit 103 and an extension access unit 104. The external number acquisition unit 101, the extension inquiry unit 102, the voice broadcast unit 103, and the extension access unit 104 are all embedded in the IVR server 11. In this embodiment, the IVR voice menu includes callback guidance information, where the callback guidance information is used to guide the external user to gate a target extension, and the target extension is an extension that has called the number of the external user within a first preset time range. The external number obtaining unit 101 is configured to obtain a number of an external user when the external user enters. Extension inquiry unit 102 is configured to inquire whether a target extension exists according to a number of an external user, and if so (that is, a target extension exists), voice broadcast unit 103 is configured to broadcast callback guide information to the external user. After the voice broadcast unit 103 broadcasts the callback guide information to the external user, the extension access unit 104 is configured to determine whether the external user gates the target extension within the second preset time, and if so (that is, the external user gates the target extension within the second preset time), the extension access unit 104 is further configured to access the target extension for the external user. The second preset time is a reasonable time range for waiting for the key response of the external user after the callback guide information is broadcasted to the external user, and the second preset time can be reasonably set by a person skilled in the art according to the time waiting for the key response of the external user in the IVR system.
Assuming that the first extension 14 calls the external user at 5 months, 1 day, 15 of the year and the external user does not answer the call of the first extension 14, the IVR server 11 stores information of the first extension 14 (for example, the number of the first extension), the number of the external user, the time of the call, and the connection state (the call is in the "unconnected" state) in the database 13 through the interface server 12. Assuming that the second extension 15 calls the external user at the same day 16 and the external user answers the call of the second extension 15, the IVR server 11 stores information on the second extension 15 (for example, the number of the second extension), the number of the external user, the time of the call, the connection state (the call is in the "answering" state) and the like in the database 13 through the interface server 12.
When the external user sees the missed call at 15 at 16 days, 15 minutes, the call is returned. When a call from an external user arrives at the IVR server 11, the external number acquisition unit 101 acquires the number of the external user. Then, extension inquiring unit 102 inquires from database 13 whether there is a target extension, which is an extension that has called the external user once within the first preset time range, through interface server 12 according to the number of the external user. In this embodiment, the first preset time range is within 24 hours from the time when the external user initiates the callback to the previous time. In a preferred embodiment, the target extension is the latest extension among the extensions that have called the number of the external user and are not connected within the first preset time range, specifically, the first extension 14 in the present embodiment (in other alternative embodiments, the target extension is the latest extension among the extensions that have called the external user within the first preset time range, that is, the second extension).
In this embodiment, the callback guide information includes a template portion and a portion to be filled in. For example, the callback guidance information is "hello," and it is queried that you have a missed call from [ X ], turn on [ X ], please press the # key, "where" [ X ] "is the part to be filled in, and the rest is the template part. The system of interactive voice response of the present embodiment further includes a menu updating unit 105. A menu updating unit 105 is embedded within the IVR server 11, the menu updating unit 105 being configured to fill in information of the target extension into the portion to be filled in to form updated callback guide information. When the extension inquiring unit 102 inquires that the first extension is the target extension, the menu updating unit 105 fills the information of the first extension into the part to be filled in to form updated callback guide information "hello, inquires that there is a missed call from the first extension, and switches on the first extension to press the # key".
Next, the voice broadcast unit 103 broadcasts the updated callback guidance information to the external user. In other alternative embodiments, the callback guidance information is only fixed content, for example, "you are good, inquire that you have a missed call, and press the # key" to get through.
The broadcast IVR voice menu also includes a plurality of pieces of service guide information. Each piece of service guide information corresponds to one service respectively, and the service guide information is used for guiding an external user to select the corresponding service. For example, the first piece of service guide information is "select a service, please press 1 #", the second piece of service guide information is "select B service, please press 2 #", and the third piece of service guide information is "select C service, please press 3 #".
After broadcasting updated callback guide information, voice broadcast unit 103 continues to broadcast each piece of service guide information one by one according to a preset sequence: "select a service, please press 1 #; selecting a service B, and pressing 2 #; select C service, please press 3# … … ". If the external user directly presses the # key in the broadcasting process, the IVR server 11 stops the broadcasting of the voice broadcasting unit 103, and the extension access unit 104 accesses the first extension of the target extension for the external user, so that the external user can get in contact with the caller of the missed call, and the call back purpose is realized.
If the external user has not dialed back, the telephone exchange number of the IVR server 11 is called at 5 months, 3 days and 10 days. Since the missed call at 5 months, 1 day, 15 has exceeded the first preset time range, extension inquiry unit 102 inquires that the result of inquiring whether or not the target extension exists is no. At this time, the interactive voice response system of the present embodiment no longer regards the current call of the external user as "callback", but rather as a call made to obtain service. The voice broadcasting unit 103 does not broadcast the callback guidance information but broadcasts a plurality of pieces of service guidance information included in the IVR voice menu. Each piece of service guide information corresponds to one service respectively, and the service guide information is used for guiding an external user to select the corresponding service. For example, the first piece of service guide information is "select a service, please press 1 #", the second piece of service guide information is "select B service, please press 2 #", and the third piece of service guide information is "select C service, please press 3 #".
In other optional embodiments, the voice broadcast unit 103 broadcasts each piece of service guide information one by one according to a preset sequence: "select a service, please press 1 #; selecting a service B, and pressing 2 #; select C service, please press 3# … … ". If the external user performs a key operation during the broadcasting process, the IVR server 11 stops the broadcasting of the voice broadcasting unit 103, and provides corresponding services for the external user according to the key of the external user.
As a preferred embodiment, this embodiment provides a more humanized implementation. The system of interactive voice response of the present embodiment further includes a key inquiry unit 106. If the result of extension querying unit 102 querying whether there is a target extension is "no", key querying unit 106 queries a target key according to the number of the external user. In this embodiment, the target key is a key that the external user has clicked last time to select the service. That is, the interactive voice response system of the present embodiment further includes a key recording unit 107, and for each key operation performed by the external user to select the corresponding service, the key recording unit 107 stores the information of the key and the time of the key to the database 13 through the interface server 12 for query and statistics. Assuming that the last key of the external user is "3" as queried from the database 13 by the key query unit 106 through the interface server 12, the menu update unit 105 promotes the service guide information corresponding to the target key "3" to the first order of the IVR voice menu to form an updated IVR voice menu. In this embodiment, the updated IVR voice menu is: "select C service, please press # 3; selecting A service, please press 1 #; selecting a service B, and pressing 2 #; … … "the relative order of the remaining service guide information to each other has not changed in the updated IVR voice menu. Then, the voice broadcasting unit 103 broadcasts the updated IVR voice menu to the external user.
In other alternative embodiments, the target key is a key that is clicked the most number of times by the external user for selecting the corresponding service within a third preset time range. The third preset time range is within 30 days from the time when the external user initiates the call.
When an external user obtains a service through an existing IVR system, the voice menus of the existing IVR system are in a fixed order, and therefore, the user often needs to wait for a long time to hear the service desired by the user. The interactive voice response system of the embodiment adjusts the sequence of the service guide information in the IVR voice menu according to the service selected by the external user for the last time or the service selected most frequently, so that the waiting time of the external user can be reduced, the occupied time of a communication line can be reduced, the efficiency can be improved, and the user experience can be improved.
In the broadcasting process of the updated IVR voice menu, if the external user clicks the corresponding key, the key recording unit 107 records the key clicked by the external user and the time when the external user clicks the key, and the service access unit 108 accesses the service corresponding to the key for the external user according to the key.
The embodiment also provides an interactive voice response method, which is implemented by adopting the interactive voice response system of the embodiment. Referring to fig. 2, the method of interactive voice response includes the steps of:
step S201, when the external user calls in, the number of the external user is obtained.
Step S202, inquiring whether a target extension exists according to the number of an external user, if so, executing step S203; if not, go to step S205.
And step S203, broadcasting callback guide information to an external user.
Step S204, judging whether the external user gates the target extension set within second preset time, if so, accessing the target extension set for the external user, and then executing step S207.
Step S205, querying a target key according to the number of the external user, promoting the service guide information corresponding to the target key to a first order of the IVR voice menu to form an updated IVR voice menu, and then broadcasting the updated IVR voice menu to the external user.
And S206, recording the key clicked by the external user and the time when the external user clicks the key, accessing the service corresponding to the key for the external user according to the key, and then executing the step S207.
And step S207, ending.
Assuming that the first extension 14 calls the external user at 5 months, 1 day, 15 of the year and the external user does not answer the call of the first extension 14, the IVR server 11 stores information of the first extension 14 (for example, the number of the first extension), the number of the external user, the time of the call, and the connection state (the call is in the "unconnected" state) in the database 13 through the interface server 12. Assuming that the second extension 15 calls the external user at the same day 16 and the external user answers the call of the second extension 15, the IVR server 11 stores information on the second extension 15 (for example, the number of the second extension), the number of the external user, the time of the call, the connection state (the call is in the "answering" state) and the like in the database 13 through the interface server 12.
When the external user sees the missed call at 15 at 16 days, 15 minutes, the call is returned. In step S201, when the call of the external user arrives at the IVR server 11, the external number acquisition unit 101 acquires the number of the external user. Then, in step S202, extension querying section 102 queries whether or not there is a target extension, which is an extension that has called the external user once within the first preset time range, from database 13 through interface server 12 according to the number of the external user. In this embodiment, the first preset time range is within 24 hours from the time when the external user initiates the callback to the previous time. In a preferred embodiment, the target extension is the latest extension among the extensions that have called the number of the external user and are not connected within the first preset time range, specifically, the first extension 14 in the present embodiment (in other alternative embodiments, the target extension is the latest extension among the extensions that have called the external user within the first preset time range, that is, the second extension).
In this embodiment, the callback guide information includes a template portion and a portion to be filled in. For example, the callback guidance information is "hello," and it is queried that you have a missed call from [ X ], turn on [ X ], please press the # key, "where" [ X ] "is the part to be filled in, and the rest is the template part. The menu updating unit 105 is used for filling the information of the target extension into the part to be filled to form updated callback guide information. When the extension querying unit 102 queries that the first extension is the target extension, in step S203, the menu updating unit 105 fills the information of the first extension into the to-be-filled part to form updated callback guidance information "hello", queries that there is a missed call from the first extension, and turns on the first extension to press the # key ".
Next, in step S203, the voice broadcast unit 103 broadcasts the updated callback guidance information to the external user. In other alternative embodiments, the callback guidance information is only fixed content, for example, "you are good, inquire that you have a missed call, and press the # key" to get through.
The broadcast IVR voice menu also includes a plurality of pieces of service guide information. Each piece of service guide information corresponds to one service respectively, and the service guide information is used for guiding an external user to select the corresponding service. For example, the first piece of service guide information is "select a service, please press 1 #", the second piece of service guide information is "select B service, please press 2 #", and the third piece of service guide information is "select C service, please press 3 #".
After broadcasting updated callback guide information, voice broadcast unit 103 continues to broadcast each piece of service guide information one by one according to a preset sequence: "select a service, please press 1 #; selecting a service B, and pressing 2 #; select C service, please press 3# … … ". If the external user directly presses the # key in the broadcasting process, that is, if it is determined in step S204 that the result of whether the external user is gated within the second preset time is yes, the target extension server 11 terminates the broadcasting of the voice broadcasting unit 103, and the extension access unit 104 accesses the first extension of the target extension for the external user, so that the external user contacts the caller of the missed call, thereby achieving the purpose of callback. And (5) executing step S207 after the external user finishes calling, and ending the operation.
If the external user has not dialed back, the telephone exchange number of the IVR server 11 is called at 5 months, 3 days and 10 days. Since the missed call at 5 months, 1 day, 15 has exceeded the first preset time range, extension inquiry unit 102 inquires that the result of inquiring whether or not the target extension exists is no. At this time, the interactive voice response system of the present embodiment no longer regards the current call of the external user as "callback", but rather as a call made to obtain service. The voice broadcasting unit 103 does not broadcast the callback guidance information but broadcasts a plurality of pieces of service guidance information included in the IVR voice menu. Each piece of service guide information corresponds to one service respectively, and the service guide information is used for guiding an external user to select the corresponding service. For example, the first piece of service guide information is "select a service, please press 1 #", the second piece of service guide information is "select B service, please press 2 #", and the third piece of service guide information is "select C service, please press 3 #".
In other optional embodiments, the voice broadcast unit 103 broadcasts each piece of service guide information one by one according to a preset sequence: "select a service, please press 1 #; selecting a service B, and pressing 2 #; select C service, please press 3# … … ". If the external user performs a key operation during the broadcasting process, the IVR server 11 stops the broadcasting of the voice broadcasting unit 103, and provides corresponding services for the external user according to the key of the external user.
As a preferred embodiment, this embodiment provides a more humanized implementation. If the result of the extension querying unit 102 querying whether there is a target extension is no, step S205 is executed, and the key querying unit 106 queries a target key according to the number of the external user. In this embodiment, the target key is a key that the external user has clicked last time to select the service. The key recording unit 107 stores information of keys and times of keys to the database 13 through the interface server 12 for inquiry and statistics every time an external user performs a key operation for selecting a corresponding service. Assuming that the last key of the external user is "3" as queried from the database 13 by the key query unit 106 through the interface server 12, in step S205, the menu update unit 105 promotes the service guide information corresponding to the target key "3" to the first order of the IVR voice menu to form an updated IVR voice menu. In this embodiment, the updated IVR voice menu is: "select C service, please press # 3; selecting A service, please press 1 #; selecting a service B, and pressing 2 #; … … "the relative order of the remaining service guide information to each other has not changed in the updated IVR voice menu. Then, the voice broadcasting unit 103 broadcasts the updated IVR voice menu to the external user.
In other alternative embodiments, the target key is a key that is clicked the most number of times by the external user for selecting the corresponding service within a third preset time range. The third preset time range is within 30 days from the time when the external user initiates the call.
When an external user obtains a service through an existing IVR system, the voice menus of the existing IVR system are in a fixed order, and therefore, the user often needs to wait for a long time to hear the service desired by the user. The interactive voice response system of the embodiment adjusts the sequence of the service guide information in the IVR voice menu according to the service selected by the external user for the last time or the service selected most frequently, so that the waiting time of the external user can be reduced, the occupied time of a communication line can be reduced, the efficiency can be improved, and the user experience can be improved.
In the broadcasting process of the updated IVR voice menu, if the external user clicks the corresponding key, in step S206, the key recording unit 107 records the key clicked by the external user and the time when the external user clicks the key, and the service access unit 108 accesses the service corresponding to the key for the external user according to the key. And (5) executing step S207 after the external user finishes calling, and ending the operation.
