Tagging interactions with Account Codes
Account Codes are used for reporting purposes. They are numbers identifying services, departments, or other elements of the contact center. Agents can tag interactions with Account Codes in Ignite to indicate in reports what the interaction was about.
For example, an agent handling chats for three catalog companies enters an Account Code of ‘01’ to indicate that the customer is inquiring about Company A. Later in the same chat interaction the agent enters an Account Code of ‘06’ to indicate that the customer is inquiring about Company A’s mail-out services.
Agents can only apply Account Codes when replying to interactions. Agents can tag interactions with multiple Account Codes but cannot configure Account Codes in Ignite.
- Voice interactions handled in Ignite can only be tagged with non-verified Account Codes. Verified Account Codes are entered before an outbound voice interaction and can be applied via Contact Center Client. For more information on verified Account Codes in your contact center, contact your system administrator.

Classification codes associate the entire interaction handling duration to the Account Code selected. This includes transfer time. It also includes Work Timer duration if 'Include queue work timer as part of handling time' is enabled on the queue. To learn more about applying Classification Codes to voice interactions, see "Tagging calls with Classification Codes".
