Agent Assignments Schedule

Overview

This screen is dedicated to assigning specific schedules to Agents, whether it be on a temporary or permanent basis.

Often this feature is used to assign Agents to specific Queues during times when other people who are normally staffed to that Queue are unavailable.

Note: An Agent must log in before the schedule change becomes active.

  • Example 1: The main sales team takes a lunch every day from 12:00-1:00 PM. An Agent (or multiple Agents) is assigned to this Queue to help with potential sales calls while the normally staffed Agents are out at lunch. This would be an example of a recurring semi-permanent schedule

  • Example 2: On a particular day there is going to be a 2-hour meeting with the Installation team between 2:00-4:00 PM, so a temporary schedule is assigned to a specified number of Agents to field these calls during this meeting. When the meeting is over, the schedule will be deleted.
