Zusammenfassung:Various embodiments of the invention provide methods, systems, and computer program products for establishing a target handle time (THT) for a communication routed to an agent in a contact center. Specifically, an analytics component is used to detect a keyword in the communication that identifies a reason for the communication. Accordingly, a THT is set for the communication based on the identified reason and a visual representation of the THT is displayed that includes a component decrementing with the passage of time. At some point, the communication is completed and a disposition code is entered for the communication. Accordingly, in particular embodiments, the disposition code is then confirmed to match the reason for the communication to ensure the correct reason was identified and the correct corresponding THT was set.
