Agents actions
As a supervisor you have some actions available on agent [1]:
Listen to agent’s conversation
While an agent is on call, as a supervisor you can listen to it’s call. To do this:
use the Listen action on a agent,
then you’ll receive a call on your phone [2]
when answered you’ll be listening to the agent conversation
use DTMF to change listening mode:
4
spy mode: the supervisor listens to the conversation5
whisper mode: as spy mode plus the supervisor can speak to the agent without the other participant to hear6
barge mode: as spy mode plus the supervisor can speak to both the agent and the other participant (e.g. the customer)
Note
By default when a supervisor spies on an agent the agent is only warned via the CC Agent Call control listen icon.
XiVO CC can be configured to warn the agent via a beep and/or a lit key on its deskphone - see Warn agent when spied.
Queue statistics
This diagram shows some aggregation about statistics collected from queue activity
Those are the statistics available by default without configuration.

You can configure which statistic is displayed in those squares - see Configure queue statistics displayed.

One tab showing some information about the queue
One tab to configure the dissuasion in case of an exceptional closing for this queue.

In the configuration tab, click on the title “Failed Destination”. A dropdown appears, showing the sound files and/or the queue that can be set up as a failed destination. The failed destination can be changed from this dropdown.
To change the failed destination options for this queue, see Activity’s Failed Destination Configuration section.

Emptying the penalty textbox and saving will remove the queue from the active configuration for the agent.
Emptying the default textbox and saving will remove the queue from the default configuration for the agent.
Multiple Agent Selection
From agent view you are able to add or remove more than one agent at the same time.
Once the agent selection is done, click on the edit button to display the configuration window
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.

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:
‘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:
The queue table display the following columns:
“Number”: The queue number
“Name”: The queue name
“Penalty”: The active penalty for the corresponding queue
Click on the plus button to add a queue for selection. Once your configuration is complete, click on save button to apply your configuration change.
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
“Ok” : The base configuration match the active configuration
“Different”: The base configuration does not match the active configuration
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.
