As the main source of information for all types of contact center configuration tasks, the ''Contact Center Administrator Guide'' generally follows the structure of the main menu of the Contact Center Administrator application. This enables you to find information about specific configuration resources easily using the table of contents. The order in which the information is presented in this guide is not necessarily the order in which you configure the resources of your contact center during your solution setup.
+
This section describes the recommended order of configuring common contact center tasks within Bright Pattern’s Contact Center Administrator application.
  
The recommended order of the most common contact center configuration tasks is described in this section. Each configuration step is referenced to a specific topic where more details can be found. Note that every configuration step recommended below is optional and depends on your specific environment. Because every contact center is unique, it is impossible to suggest a process that would apply universally to all possible types of installations. Use the information below as a general guideline only.

This quickstart will help you get your contact center up and running quickly, regardless of whether the contact center will be used for inbound services, outbound campaigns, or both. Note that every contact center environment is unique, and the following information is meant to be used as a general guideline only.
