An application, running on an adjunct processor, that collects information from an ACD unit. CMS
enables customers to monitor and manage telemarketing centers by generating reports on the
status of agents, splits, trunks, trunk groups, vectors, and VDNs, and enables customers to
partially administer the ACD feature for a communications system.

CRVs distinguish between associations.

Ringback Queuing feature.

seconds (in the United States). Call-waiting ringback tone notifies the attendant that the Attendant
Call Waiting feature is activate and that the called party is aware of the waiting call. Tones in
international countries may sound different.

CCS or hundred call seconds
A unit of call traffic. Call traffic for a facility is scanned every 100 seconds. If the facility is busy, it is
assumed to have been busy for the entire scan interval. There are 3600 seconds per hour. The
Roman numeral for 100 is the capital letter C. The abbreviation for call seconds is CS. Therefore,
100 call seconds is abbreviated CCS. If a facility is busy for an entire hour, then it is said to have
been busy for 36 CCS. See also Erlang
