  • Emptying the penalty textbox and saving will remove the queue from the active configuration for the agent.

Click on the plus button to add a queue for selection, click on the minus button to remove a queue to the selection. Once queue to add or removed are choosen, click on save button to apply your configuration change.

Click on “Apply default configuration” to apply existing default configuration to all selected users and make it the active configuration. This action only affects users with an existing default configuration, agents whithout default configuration remain unchanged.

Agent Base Configuration

From the agent view, after selecting one or more agents, you can create a base configuration by clicking on one of the menu item in the following drop down:

../../_images/ccmanager-base-batch-dropdown.png
  • ‘Create base configuration’ will allow you to create a base configuration from scratch for all the selected agents.
  • ‘Create base configuration from active configuration’ will allow you to create a base configuration using the selected agents active configuration. The queue membership and penalty populated will be built based on the merged membership of all the selected agents. In case of conflict, the lowest penalty will be used.

In both cases, you will be able to review your changes before applying them. The ‘Create base configuration’ popup is similar to the single agent edition popup:

Applying Default Configuration

In order to re-apply or apply a default configuration, you may select agent whose base configuration is different from active configuration.

In the agent view, you will find a new column (Base config.) displaying if the base configuration is different from the active one:

The possible values for this field are:

  • “n/a”: The base configuration is not available for this agent

You can use this column to filter agent whose base configuration is different from the active one and then apply the default configuration by using the “Edit agent” option.
