A system, method and software for implementing an automated call routing
application in a speech enabled call center environment are provided. In
operation, the invention provides for the identification of a call center
transaction selection from a natural language user utterance and the
invocation of one or more scripts operable to route the user to a call
center service agent configured to service the selected transaction. In
the event a transaction selection cannot be readily identified or can
only be partially identified, the invention provides for the initiation
of a dialog module or script directed to eliciting a discernable
transaction selection and/or the presentation of one or more menus from
which the user may select an available call center transaction.
