IVR system manager
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for maintaining IVR system specification information for an Interactive Voice Response (“
- IVR”
) system, comprising;
receiving design specification data for the IVR system from a computer user, where the design specification data is state definition data or IVR system documentation data;
storing the design specification data in a database; and
generating a design specification report from the stored design specification data.

Abstract
An IVR system designer receives design specification data (which may be either state definition data or IVR system document data) and stores it in a database. A design specification report can be generated based on the stored design specification data. The report may correspond to a chosen period of time or it may correspond to chosen version of the IVR system. It may provide one or more of the following: a summary of a state within the IVR system, a listing of the previous states that lead to the current state, prompts for the state, inputs for the state, a listing of decision outcomes, key performance indicator triggers for the state, global commands that are active in the state, business units for which the state is applicable, a sample dialogues listing, test scripts listing for testing the IVR system, a change history listing for the system, a design flow diagram for the system, or pseudo-code listing for a portion of the system.
