Corrections and Modifications

This release also includes the following corrections and modifications:

Now you can change the color of the background in the opening hours cells in Forecast views. Use Configuration Manager to add the option OpenHoursCellColor to the Options section of the WFM Web application. Specify the color value as a hex code; for example, FFCC00 (hot yellow) is the default value if this option has not been created, and D3D3D3 is light gray. (ER# 257145035)

Now you can increase the font size by selecting Text Size from the View menu on the Supervisor's window. From the Text Size Settings dialog that appears, select the check box Use Font Scaling and then choose one of the three options: +1, +2, or +3. Save your changes, then log out and log back in to see the new font size. Please note that this setting does not affect the agent interface. You can get larger fonts in the agent interface by adjusting browser settings, but they will look and function best on Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 or later, and Firefox 3.0 or later.

Supported Operating Systems

New in This Release

This is a hot fix for this product. This release does not contain new features or functionality.

Corrections and Modifications

This release also includes the following corrections and modifications:

The reports Schedule Marked Time Totals, Schedule State Totals, and Schedule State are now generated even if there is large number of items (marked times or schedule states, depending on the report)—a condition that previously prevented report generation. Now, the section that lists these items on every page of a report is truncated if it exceeds 2500 characters.

In addition, you can specify whether the section that lists these items will repeat on each page of the Schedule Marked Time Totals and the Schedule State Totals reports. To do so, add the new option ShowFilterOnFirstPageOnly to the Reports section of the WFM Web application, in Configuration Manager.

ShowFilterOnFirstPageOnly
Type: Optional
Default Value: false
Valid Value: true or false
Dependencies: None

Set this option to true to disable repetition of the repeated section on each page of all reports. Instead, the report will display the complete section once, and then never repeat it.

Set this option to false to enable repetition of the repeated section on each page of all reports.

The repeated section is: Selected Schedule Marked Times for the Schedule Marked Time Totals report, and Selected Schedule State Groups and Schedule States for the Schedule State Totals report.

With this release, WFM Web correctly displays an error or warning message in the Insert Multiple Dialogs wizard if the checkbox Insert only if there are no errors or warnings was cleared and an action would have generated an error. (ER# 228353985)

With this release, the Weekly Schedule report includes the correct name(s) of time-off instance(s), instead of the incorrect term Exception. (ER# 228353977)

With this release, all report tasks and generated reports are presented correctly, even if created by now-deleted users. Previously, if the user who created at least one report task was later deleted, and another user checked the option Show All in generated reports or scheduled report task views, views would not be usable and WFM Web would display an error message.

• Users can create teams using profile agents and then build schedules with an unknown number of profiles.

• Users can enter a combination of synchronicity rules to be granted when creating schedules.

• Users can edit historical data and search it for any anomalies.

• Users can search the historical data for anomalies and store these trends as Overlays (formerly known as Factors), which can be superimposed onto a Forecast.

• Multi-day Time Off requests can optionally be treated as one entity rather than as individual days.

• Agents can enter specific Exceptions into the Calendar and optionally have them inserted into the Master Schedule.

• JAWS compatibility enables visually impaired agents to navigate the WFM Web Agent interface.

• Unassigned agents and Available Agent lists are restricted based on Tenant-based security and for agents that are not assigned to a Site. Once agents are assigned to the Site, WFM will enforce its own security permissions.

• A new WFM Web Agent view allows agents to view other agents' schedules across all Sites within the same Activity group.

• Agents can view Time Off Limits across Sites for a particular date and time prior to submitting a Time Off request.

• Agents can recall any Time Off request that has not been scheduled, regardless of whether it was auto-approved or manually granted.

• Time Off Slots in the Agent view will be displayed as unavailable if the request is outside the Agent's availability pattern in the Contract; if the request is earlier than the configured Earliest Start Time in the Shift; or if it is later than the Latest End Time in the Shift.

• Additional checks have been added to ensure an Agent's Full Day Time Off in which the Agent has specified a start/end time and/or paid hours meets certain criteria before checking Time Off Rules, Time Off Balance and Time Off Limits.

Corrections and Modifications

This release also includes the following corrections and modifications:

With this release, if the WFM Web option AllowEnterFullDayStartEnd is set to false and AllowEnterPaidTime is set to true, and an agent edited a previously entered time off with the start and end times specified, the edited time off is correctly saved with its original start end time. (ER# 221526173)

With this release, the correct duration appears in the Schedule State Totals report if the report includes unpaid part-day time off or an exception. (ER# 223015010)

With this release, a Time Zone field is added to the Reports Scheduler view, while you are creating or editing a report task. The field allows you to specify time-zone information that is used for determining scheduled report task run time. Also, you can specify the local time zone to be used on computers running WFM components, for customers who work in only one time zone and do not enter it anywhere. (ER# 220926987)

With this release, if you select a team that contains only one agent while generating the Agent States Report, that agent correctly appears in the report. (ER# 222905561)

With this release, an agent no longer receives an error message while trying to recall an overnight time off item. (ER# 222052952)

This release corrects a problem that occurred in the Supervisor's calendar while a user was inserting calendar items. If the user selected several sites and if the agent count teams in one of the teams was None, then WFM Web would incorrectly insert calendar items for agents in other teams with the same agent count of None. With this release, WFM Web no longer makes those incorrect insertions. (ER# 222266735)

WFM Web now correctly displays the Lead Time (Weeks) value for an Agent who has been assigned the Automatic Approval a Minimum of X Weeks in Advance option for time-off rule in Configuration Utility. (ER# 197158208)

The following reports were all corrected to address incorrect time-zone handling issues, which previously caused data to be reported for different dates from those expected or displayed incorrectly matching results for different granularities of the same report: Adherence Totals, Schedule Marked Time Totals, Schedule Summary, Schedule State Totals, all reports from the Performance Reports Group, and all reports from the Forecast Reports Group. (ER# 193495163, 211574061, 213077444, 213469596)

• The first day of the month is not the same as the first day of the week.

(ER# 191807112)

With this release, the Schedule Audit report uses correct time-zone information for data retrieval and presentation. Now, dates and times appear as the user expects. (ER# 188376113)

With this release, WFM Web no longer freezes while displaying a certificate warning message, which could happen previously when a supervisor with only Reports module permission logged in for the first time. (ER# 194869389)

An Agent Adherence Report that is generated with the option csv friendly report selected and then exported to csv, now does not contain duplicate rows of data. (ER# 211232253)

An Contact Centre Performance Report that is generated with the option csv friendly report selected and then exported to csv, now does not contain duplicate rows of data. (ER# 216692901)

Supported Operating Systems

New in This Release

There are no restrictions for this release. This section describes new features that were introduced in the initial 7.6 release of Workforce Management Web.

• The WFM Web 7.6 component supports Microsoft Windows Vista Enterprise. Please note that only WFM Web agent-facing components will run on a browser that is compatible with Microsoft Windows Vista Enterprise. The WFM Web IP cannot run on Microsoft Windows Vista Enterprise. To learn which version of Microsoft Windows Vista Enterprise WFM Web 7.6 supports, and which other Genesys solutions also support it, please consult the Genesys 7 Supported Operating Systems and Databases Reference Manual.

• Contact centers can comply with union regulations requiring agents to have a minimum number of hours between start times of consecutive days. Schedulers can specify a minimum distance between the start times of two consecutive working days when WFM builds the schedule.
• A schedule can treat each paid break as mandatory, even if there is a preplanned exception blocking the time window for the break. Schedulers can decide, per exception type, whether such breaks should be scheduled adjacent to the exception or during the exception.
• Contact centers that are legally obliged to build schedules with all agent preferences granted as part of their labor agreement can now create schedules with all agent preferences granted. They can then lower the percentage of granted preferences on subsequent schedule runs until they find a schedule with the right balance of agent preferences and coverage.
• Adding the same shift for several agents—using the Insert Multiple feature—now does not require the use of a scenario.
• You can disable automatic approval of trades, to allow a supervisor to review all trades, and to better track how agents use the trading feature.
• The Contact Center Performance Report can display optimal staffing at both the activity and multi-site activity levels, and the difference between the optimal staffing and the scheduled coverage.
• A supervisor can override limits while granting time off, in a single step.
• Agents cannot request types of time off that are no longer available to them.

Corrections and Modifications

This release includes the following corrections and modifications that were made between Release 7.5 or earlier releases and the initial 7.6 release:

WFM Web now displays a negative time-off balance correctly (as a negative number) in the Time Off Balance report. Previously, a negative balance was displayed as a zero. (ER# 134553414)

In the Schedule Weekly view, on the same week that an Agent has at least one vacation day, all other time-off items are no longer incorrectly displayed as vacation days too. (ER# 138103524)

Running the Actual Overhead Report for different date periods no longer gives different % Working and Non Working Exception values for the same single week. (ER# 143461781)

By default, WFM Web sends multiple cookies as separate lines in http request headers when performing communications between the browser and server parts, or between separate server parts if the reports were run on separate WFM Web servers.

The correction requires client action for some third party products such as balance loaders, which fail to correctly process the http headers described earlier. To remedy this situation, add the key UseSingleCookieHeader under the Client section, Options tab and set it to True. This setting causes WFM Web to send cookies in one line. (ER# 148348791)

Filtering by time-off items in the Calendar Items view now functions correctly; unselected time off types no longer show up in the returned Calendar Items list. Previously, all time-off items were presented regardless of the filter selection. (ER# 150249293)

Agent Adherence reports no longer display a blank instead of the No Activity fixed state. (ER# 155433966)

Two problems that appeared in the Insert Multiple wizard if it was summoned from the Agent-Extended view, have been corrected:

• An Agent that was selected in object tree was not automatically selected in the wizard.
  Now, the Agent that is selected in the Agent-Extended view is preselected in the Insert Multiple wizard.
• If an Exception was chosen to be inserted into the wizard, for each of the Start Time and End Time parameters, the Next Day checkbox was incorrectly selected by default.
  Now, when the Insert Multiple wizard is invoked from the toolbar, the default start and end times are 0:00- and +0:00. And when the Insert Multiple wizard is invoked from the context menu in the Intra-Day and Agent-Extended views, the default start and end times are taken from the 15-minute time step that was right-clicked by the user.

(ER# 161284935)

In the Availability Patterns view, an Agent can now specify no preference for availability for a specific weekday. To specify no preference for availability, give Start Time and End Time the same value. To specify no preference at all, leave Start Time and End Time empty for any day in the Availability Pattern. (ER# 161419486)

Known Issues and Recommendations

This section provides the latest information on known issues and recommendations associated with this product.

In the Details section of the Agent Preference view, the paid hours of the calendar item may not be shown if the start time, end time, and paid hours were not entered by a user, but instead were determined by the system. (ER# 230418705)

On the Weekly Preferences page, a Rotating Pattern is represented correctly in the textual portion but not in the graphical portion of the page. (ER# 230353650)

Page 146 of the WFM Administrator's Guide incorrectly lists all as the default value for the WFM Web / Log option verbose. The default value should be standard. (ER# 221204431)

If a time-off rule has the flag Do not validate time off request against time off balance set, then this time-off rule is also not used for determining full day time-off paid hours. Standard contract hours are used for the corresponding time-off instead. (ER# 218720718)

In the Schedule Intra-day and Agent-extended views, Marked Time that starts and ends after midnight for the current day shift is incorrectly displayed in the Agent day schedule details, below the schedules: these values do not show a plus (+) before the start and end dates, which indicates the next day. (ER# 174111523)

In the Time Off Report, a negative balance for time off is incorrectly shown as zero. Workaround: to view the correct negative balance for time offs, use the Time Off Balance Report instead. (ER# 174152472)

For the following reports: Actual Overheads, Marked Time, Marked Time Totals, Schedule States, and Schedule State Totals; if you generate a report for a period that is longer than 41 days, then the data will be missing for every 42nd day in the report. (ER# 174244885)

In the Marked time Totals report, if you select x-weeks granularity, the report instead shows data using daily granularity. (ER# 174245155)

The window that contains help displays the incorrect version in its title, Workforce Management 7.5 Web for Supervisor help. The help topic About this File displays the correct version: Workforce Management 7.6 Web for Supervisor help. (ER# 159559657)

In the Weekly Schedule Report, if you select a planning period in the reports wizard, the generated report incorrectly presents weekday information, and the weekday names in the column header do not match the presented information. (ER# 174902597)

In the Time Off Limits view, if you enter data into the grid and click Refresh without saving first, no warning is given that all the newly entered information is lost. You must save before clicking Refresh. (ER# 175691251)

When you install Java in support of WFM Web, be certain that it is the version with the latest time zones update. For detailed information, please consult the "Timezones and Daylight Saving Time" topic on the web page http://java.sun.com/javase/timezones/. (ER# 172432199, 172432232).

In the Configuration > Notifications view, if you make changes in the site tree and select another notification type before saving the changes, then the selection in the site tree displays incorrectly for other notification types until you refresh the view. (ER# 173155802)

In an Agent's Edit Preferences page, if the agent makes changes to the current week and then selects next week before clicking Submit, then the changes are lost and no warning appears before WFM Web displays the preferences for the next week. (ER# 169841961)

In a Schedule's Intra-Day and Agent-Extended views, if you select the Full View option, then a Schedule that has an exception which is covered with two adjacent breaks is displayed as if there is a gap between the breaks with the exception appearing in the gap. Switch off the Full View option to display the schedule correctly, with no gap between adjacent breaks. (ER# 163080603)

When you activate the Delete Multiple Wizard from the Schedule and End Time is set later than 00:00 for the next day, an incorrect error message appears:
‘Time range 00:00 - +12:00 violates the following constraint(s):
1. Minimum time constraint. End time should be not earlier than +00:00’.
