Team Details

Field or Control

Definition

Team Name

Enter the name of the team to create. Each team name must be unique.

Note: Team definitions are personalizations of Supervisor Desktop and are not shared among users. Therefore, uniqueness is only within an agent's personalization of Supervisor Desktop.

Agent's User ID

Select the user ID of an agent who you want to add to this team. The agent's name appears in the description automatically.

Include Multichannel Queues and Include Voice Queues

Select to include any multichannel and voice queues that are associated with this agent in the agent configuration.

If this agent does not have a multichannel configuration, or the user who defines this team does not have access to the queues that are specified in the agent's configuration, the corresponding check box does not appear.

The same is true for voice queues. The check box to include voice queues does not appear if this agent does not have a voice configuration.

The system requires that at least one type of queue (multichannel or voice) must be included for an agent to be included in a team definition.

Use the Supervisor Desktop - Queue List page (RB_SD_QUEUE_LIST) to select queues to be included in the queue list whenever the queue list is referenced on Supervisor Desktop.

Queue list can be used as a filter in real-time monitoring and for timeout administration.
