A method and apparatus are provided for presenting structural relationships in an automatic contact distribution system. The method includes the steps of defining a plurality of structural elements within the automatic contact distribution system, selecting a structural element of the automatic contact distribution system as a root element, identifying any related elements of the plurality of elements that together with the selected element affect contact handling within the automatic contact distribution system and displaying the root element and related elements along with an indicia of the relationship between the root element and related elements.

Method of displaying complex relationships

A method and apparatus are provided for processing messages in a networked automatic contact distribution system having a plurality of computer processors. The method includes the steps of a processor of the plurality of processors receiving a configuration message, the processor determining a type of the configuration message from metadata contained within the message and the processor executing a predetermined set of steps based upon the determined type of the configuration message.

Method of unifying control of contact center system

A method and apparatus are provided for changing operating parameters within an automatic contact distribution system that includes a plurality of functionally similar but structurally different automatic contact distributor subsystems. The method includes the steps of a user selecting an operating parameter for use by each of the plurality of functionally similar but structurally different automatic contact distributor subsystems, a respective conversion program for each of the plurality of functionally similar but structurally different automatic contact distributor subsystems receiving the selected operating parameter from the user and incorporating the selected operating parameter into the respective subsystems.
