HEAT includes a powerful real-time reporting engine that uses Crystal Reports to display data to users based on security roles and organizational teams. In addition, Answer Wizard enables you to find answers to almost any operational question or generate detailed business matrixes with just a click of the mouse. The HEAT Answer Wizard module contains a couple of hundred predefined Crystal reports and presents these to users in an easy to use tree structure as seen in the following diagram. The types of reports are grouped as: Call Trend and Analysis Reports Current Status Reports SLA Reports Technician Statistics Reports Asset Reports An example of the predefined Crystal reports for Call Duration would be: What is the average call duration in hours, overall by month, by tracker, by call category, by call type, by priority, by who closed call, by cause etc? Page 13 of 25

One of250 pre defined Crystal reports included in the solution HEAT provides for many methods of communication with other systems. The HEAT API allows other systems to obtain full control of the HEAT system and perform almost any function that could be performed manually through the HEAT modules. HEAT also has the ability to process a set of DDE calls allowing for real-time communication between applications such as CTI clients. DDE calls would be the preferred integration choice with the telephony systems as most telephony systems provide a CTI client capable of executing DDE calls. User Access The security features with the HEAT Administrator module let you secure and control your system through the use of security profiles (users, teams, and roles), user status monitoring, database passwords, call locking, and Unified Logins. You can add users and create user accounts for each person in the system. User accounts contain important security information, such as Login ID, password, team, role, and e-mail address. In addition you can also create and define teams for use in the system. Users can be assigned to these teams to control access to HEAT modules and features. Define Security Rights for roles, and define Table Rights for roles. These roles can then be assigned to users to control if and how information is accessed in HEAT. You can apply security settings across all HEAT Service and Support modules. Page 14 of 25

HEAT Manager s Console provides real-time graphical displays of sales and support data, allowing call monitoring, service level evaluation, peak resource planning, campaign response measurement, critical customer tracking, and group performance analysis. Manager s Console captures historical information to automate proactive problem management, and facilitate future response to recurring problems. Manager s Console also enables users to set up an early warning system, automatically correct a problem once diagnosed, and delegate specific problems to appropriate representatives by enabling users to set performance metrics and thresholds that trigger the designated response. Page 15 of 25

Business Process Automation Module (BPAM) creates key automation and escalation rules easily and intuitively. It can, for example, be configured to send a call ticket to the appropriate technician for resolution or to notify the designated administrator when a trouble ticket exceeds acceptable resolution time. Page 16 of 25

Web User Interface HEAT Web UI is the web-based version of Call Logging, providing the major functionality of Call Logging through a browser. Page 17 of 25

HEAT Messaging Center The HEAT Messaging Center (HMC) provides an automated process for generating Call Records from e-mail, XML or text files, or using Web Services, enabling the service/support desk to address customer issues logged during nonstandard hours, or as a customer option in lieu of a phone call. HMC performs other functions, facilitating a customer or user s work process: it updates Call Records, creates and updates Customer Records, as well as Configuration records, and lets customers perform information queries regarding their existing Call Ticket(s). If HMC fails to create or update a record, an error handler can create an incident Call Record. Use the HEAT Messaging Center to: Create a Call Record Update a Call Record Create a Profile Update a Profile Create a Configuration Update a Configuration Respond to queries Handle message errors using Error Handler How HEAT Messaging Center Works HEAT Messaging Center receives messages from various email systems, files, and Web Service calls, then processes these messages according to a set of specified rules. This processing includes conditional creating or updating of Call Tickets, Profiles, or Configurations; answering user Ticket or Profile Information queries; and executing Error Handler for messaging errors. HEAT Messaging Center Components The HMC Console allows you to configure and administer all the components of the HEAT Messaging Center from a unified tree view, including Message Sources settings (and their corresponding accounts/folders), Messaging Rules, and Messaging Storage (and disposal) settings. The core of HMC includes Message Storage, Message Processing, and Message Routing systems. Message Storage (database) serves as a central part of message exchange between HMC components. HMC requires a Messaging database to store messages collected by Message Sources for processing. The Messaging database must be a SQL database. The Message Processor handles message flow, executing conditional Messaging Rules against every incoming message, resulting in newly created or updated Call Records, Profiles, Configurations, or automatically-generated reply messages sent back to the customer. The Message Routing system is responsible for proper delivery of messages from component to component. Message Sources collect the messages from external email providers, file systems, and Web Service calls. Message Sources working with email can also communicate a reply back to the message originator. Page 18 of 25

Among other things, customers can submit a new service request or check an issue status without involving you, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. Web-based access means customers can reach you whenever, from wherever, instead of telephoning every time they need service. The lower cost per transaction quickly contributes to the bottom line of your business. Customers receive an e-mail confirmation that their issue has been logged which provides a hyperlink to the original issue so they can check accuracy and/or make changes if necessary. Page 20 of 25

HEAT 9.0 Licensing model HEAT supports a concurrent licensing model and not a named licensing model. The following modules require a user license: Call Logging thick client module per user. Call Logging Web user interface module per user. HEAT Message Centre module requires a single user license. The accepted formulae for the calculating of the total number of Call Logging license is the following: One dedicated Call Logging license per Service Desk agent who will be logging the requests in HEAT. One Call Logging license per three technicians that will be responding to the requests. The technicians / managers can use the HEAT Alert Monitor that will notify them of any request that have been assigned or escalated to themselves or to their department. The HEAT Alert Monitor does not require a license. The technician / manager will only use a Call Logging license when they need to update or to view additional information on the request.
