My Schedule
The menu bar across the top of the My Schedules pane offers the following Web Services Menu Options: Schedule, Trading, Preferences, Time Off, Bidding, and Configuration. You might not see all of these items on your Menu Bar, depending on the options that have been configured for you.
The schedule itself displays colored graphical schedule bars and a drill-down schedule details section. Each line of the details section contains a small box whose color matches the corresponding portion of the schedule bar, in browsers such as Chrome, FireFox, and Internet Explorer.
Visual cues in the details view include full names of selected exceptions, breaks, and other items.
If your site allows schedule trading, this pane also displays trading messages and controls with the following contents:
| Control | Description |

Add Exception Dialog Box
Exceptions define periods of time when you are engaged in non work activities or are absent, such as in training or meetings. Supervisors or managers configure a set of Exceptions that can be used in your site, based on business requirements. To add an exception to your schedule, select day(s) in the schedule, and click the Add Exception button. The Add Exception dialog box appears, with the following controls:
| Control | Description |
|---|---|
| Exceptions drop-down list | Select an exception from this list, if it is configured to appear. |
| Full Day Exception check box (read-only) | If the selected exception is a full day exception, this check box is selected. If the selected exception is not a full day exception, this check box is cleared. |
| Allowed Range: | Your supervisor specifies the start and end dates in this date range. You can specify the exact start time and end time for the exception. (Specify place for exception pane) or specify a range that WFM can use to decide the start time and end time for the exception (Find place for Exception pane). Note: Both panes cannot be displayed at the same time. |
| Specify place for exception pane | Click this phrase to expand or minimize this pane, which contains choices that specify a start time, end time, and paid time for the exception. |
| Specify place for exception fields | Select or enter hours and minutes values in the drop-down fields Start Time and End Time of the selected exception. The start time must occur before the end time. The hours 12AM ... 12PM represent times in the current day; the times +12AM ... +12PM represent times in the next day. Select or enter hours and minutes values in the drop-down field Paid Time of the selected exception. The check box of each selected weekday is selected by default. You can clear one or more check boxes to exempt the corresponding day(s) from your choices. |
| Find place for Exception pane | Click this phrase to expand or minimize this pane, which contains choices that specify a range of possible start times and end times. WFM will make the actual choices, within this range. |
| Possible dates fields | The Earliest Start and Latest End fields are for display only; you already selected this range of days before you clicked the Add Exception button. |
| Possible times fields | Select or enter hours and minutes values in the drop-down fields Earliest Start and Latest End. The start time must occur before the end time. The hours 12AM ... 12PM represent times in the current day; the times +12AM ... +12PM represent times in the next day |
| Duration | Select or enter hours and minutes values for the drop-down fields. |
| Possible weekdays | Clear the check box for each weekday that is to be excluded as "possible"; all are selected, by default. Note: Weekdays that are selected in the My Schedule view only are available in the Find place for Exception and Specify place for Exception panes. |
Warnings Versus Errors
If WFM displays warnings, the exception is inserted into the schedule as a pending change.
If WFM displays errors, the exception is not inserted into the schedule.
Pending Changes
WFM Web for Agents displays changes which are requested but not yet approved in a Pending Changes table, which appears directly below the Agent's schedule. Click the Undo Changes link in the leftmost column of any pending change, to cancel your request.
