This document goes over the features and needed changes made to VICIDIAL to enable it to insert activity records into the queue_log and other tables in MySQL that QueueMetrics uses for it's statistical analysis and reports. This document should not be taken as a HOWTO for proper installation steps to get QueueMetrics working.
QueueMetrics is a closed-source, commercial product written by Loway Research in Italy. The writers of VICIDIAL do not support or warranty QueueMetrics or it's functionality with VICIDIAL in any way.

This feature was added to the package at the request of several users of VICIDIAL and was achieved with some help from the creators of QueueMetrics(although all VICIDIAL code changes were done entirely by Matt Florell).
This feature is functional on outbound manual dialing, auto dialing and inbound call handling as of 2008-06-30(SVN trunk 2.0.5).
as of 2008-10-30, several validation and correction functions were added to the AST_cleanup_agent_log.pl script that is supposed to run every hour. These functions should clean up any queue_log errors that appear and cause QueueMetrics to display incorrect call totals.
Another very important issue to note is that just like with VICIDIAL on multi-server systems, if QueueMetrics data is being generated on a multi-server system the data will be corrupted if all of the servers are not on the same time. I strongly recommend getting ntp working properly on all servers in a VICIDIAL or QueueMetrics server cluster.
To be able to view stats for inbound and outbound calls properly you need to add each one individually in QueueMetrics "queues" and properly set whether each one is inbound or outbound. After that you can create a combined queue-alias with all of the campaigns and in-groups in it and it will tell you correctly the number of inbound and outbound calls.

As of 2009-05-30, live montoring and playback of archived recordings through the QueueMetrics interface was added. To use this you must have the audio.server, audio.liveserver and default.audioRpcServer variables set properly in the configuration.properties file as specified toward the bottom of this document. The live monitoring asks for an extension to send the call to, this is an extension dialed on the active voicemail server as defined in the system settings. If there is no active voicemail defined then the live monitor will place the call to the extension on the server that the agent is on.
Here is a short summary of the needed steps to install QueueMetrics on your system:
