  • 1.  Email Workbins - Is there a work around?

    Posted 03-04-2024 21:09

    Hi Folks,

    While we wait for the email parking feature to be released (DIG-I-19) we are looking for a work around for the lack of work bin functionality in GC email handling.


    How have other organisations dealt with a 'work bin' / 'email parking' use case in Genesys Cloud?   

    Thanks!

    Yes, we are in a holding pattern.   I usually suggest replying to the customer and cc'ing another GCx email that goes into a queue that either allows manual assignment or use a moniker in the agent signature to allow preferred-agent routing.  You can use an in-queue Email flow to route out of that queue and agent after a set period.   You could even have the agent set the recall time in the subject by the number of days to "park" the email.

    We do it slightly differently. We have 3 'park email' queues. 1 hour, 4 hours and 24 hours. The agent forwards the email to one of these queues and then that email is returned after the set time period. Not ideal, the email reacts based on the queue config. We cannot wait for the Park email launch.

    Thank you for posting this, Joel. We will be integrating email soon and had wondered about this very thing.

    Tagging @Rechelle McConnell@Christle Miclat to keep eyes on for workarounds until the update.
