Interactive Application Call Center Method and System
First Claim
1. A method for an interactive application for a call center, the method comprising:
- identifying a client associated with an incoming call at the call center;
responding to the incoming call by initiating a client-specific protocol associated with the client via the interactive application, the interactive application providing two or more client-specific protocols associated with two or more clients; and
enabling a user over remote connection to dynamically update the protocol via a link to the interactive application.

Abstract
Provided is a computer system and method for operating a server computer to provide an interactive application to enable a plurality of client-specific protocols for a remote call center, the remote call center configured to receive a plurality of calls for a plurality of clients. One method includes linearly administering a plurality of states defined in a process map of client-specific protocols for a plurality of call types expected to be received for each client; displaying the process map at the remote call center via a graphical user interface; and enabling a client to remotely alter the process map over an internet connection in near real-time.

22. A computer system comprising:
-
a processor; a memory coupled to the processor; a interactive application module coupled to the memory, the interactive application module configured to respond to an incoming call received at a call center and linearly administer a plurality of states in a process map associated with a client requested by the incoming call, the client designated by a caller identification, the interactive application module responsive to inputs to dynamically alter one or more of the plurality of states in the process map by a user over an internet connection. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)

29. A computer program product comprising a computer readable medium configured to perform one or more acts for interactive application module configured to respond to an incoming call received at a call center by linearly administering a plurality of states in a process map associated with a client requested by the incoming call, the one or more acts comprising:
-
one or more instructions for identifying a client associated with an incoming call at the call center; one or more instructions for responding to the incoming call by initiating a client-specific protocol associated with the client via the interactive application, the interactive application providing two or more client-specific protocols associated with two or more clients; and one or more instructions for enabling a user over remote connection to dynamically update the protocol via a link to the interactive application. - View Dependent Claims (30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41)
