Pre-defined Dispositions
This section provides descriptions of the predefined dispositions that are created by default whenever you define a new service. For general information about dispositions, their purpose, and configuration, see section Dispositions Tab of this guide.
Many dispositions defined apply to outbound campaigns only, and some of those are used for preview records only.
All dispositions in the Connection Problem folder are by default visible to agents. This is essential for preview campaigns where call progress is monitored by agents. If you are running a predictive or progressive campaign where the call progress analysis is performed by the system, you may consider hiding some of these dispositions. If you do so, it is recommended that you leave dispositions Answering machine and Silence visible to the agents.
Note: The dispositions that are hidden from the agents are shown in italic, both in the application and in the following list.

Answering machine
The call was answered by an answering machine.
Busy
The called number was busy.
Fast busy
The call attempt returned the fast busy signal (reorder tone) indicating that the call cannot be established due to network congestion. Note that sometimes network operators also use Fast Busy to indicate invalid and/or disconnected numbers.
Fax or modem

Invalid number
The call attempt returned a tone indicating that the dialed number was invalid.
Network announcement
The call attempt returned speech before connecting the call, such as a network message indicating, for example, that the call could not be established at this time.

Note that this disposition is used only when the record contains multiple phone numbers and they are tried during the campaign. When list records contain only one phone number (or only one is used during the given campaign), the final disposition of the record that reached maximum attempts corresponds to the disposition of the last call attempt.
The call could not be made because the public telephone network was not available.
