Enabling Team Leads and Supervisors to log off or change agent state

[Added: 8.5.126.07]

You can enable your supervisors/team leads to manually change an agent's state or log off an agent by using the Team Communicator. If a supervisor discovers that an agent is in the wrong state, he or she can use Team Communicator to select the agent, and then use the Action menu to set an agent to Ready or Not Ready (Not Ready Reasons options are not supported) on all channels or on specific channels. If a supervisor discovers that an agent has left their account logged on after their shift, he or she can use Team Communicator to select the agent, and then use the Action menu to log off the agent on all channels; this ability benefits the company in two ways: it ensures that seat licenses are not unnecessarily consumed, and interactions are prevented from being routed to an agent who is not present but is configured for auto-answer!

To enable the agent state control feature, grant the 'Team Lead - Agent Status Enabled Remote Actions' privilege, then configure the following Application option in the interaction-workspace section of a Tenant, Group, or User object:

Important

When you are setting up supervisors/team leads with the remote actions, the following behaviors occur with this feature:

  • If an agent has set their status to After Call Work, Not Ready <with the reason>, or Do Not Disturb, these are displayed in Team Communicator as Not Ready.
  • Since Team Communicator does not support these statuses, you cannot set an agent status from Ready to After Call Work, Not Ready <with the reason>, or Do Not Disturb; you can only set the status to Not Ready from Ready.
Warning

Team leads might experience unexpected behavior if they change the state of a particular eService channel from Do Not Disturb, to Ready for an agent who is assigned two or more eServices channels. Setting Ready on one eServices channel restores all other eServices channels to the status prior to Do Not Disturb.
