  • 1.  Preference and Bidding in Genesys Cloud WFM

    Hi All,

    I have few questions related to Genesys Cloud WFM:

    1. Do we have agent preference and shift bidding options available in Genesys Cloud WFM (like how we have in Genesys Engage WFM). If yes, please share the steps for the same?

    2. What is the maximum and minimum duration to generate forecast and schedule? I believe we can only generate maximum 6 weeks of forecast and 6 weeks of schedule. Please correct me if I am wrong here.

    Thanks

    @Cameron Smith ​ or @Christopher Johnson can better let you know timing but I do know that the 6 weeks will be extended to 52 and maybe more in the near future and that bidding is on the roadmap.  Genesys is already working on agent shift preferences.   ​

    Thanks Robert..!!
    So currently we don't have bid and preference option available. Also, I tried to create forecast and schedule but it's not going beyond 6 weeks. Please let me know how to increase it.
    @Christopher Johnson​​
    @Cameron Smith Kindly provide your inputs as well.​​

    On the Roadmap - meaning, you can only do 6 weeks until that feature comes out for 52 weeks.  It is coming soon.

    Today you can generate forecasts and schedules beyond 6 weeks out, but would require multiple consecutive forecasts/schedules (e.g., generate one schedule for 6w and then another consecutive for the following 6w etc.).

    From help:
    https://help.mypurecloud.com/articles/about-short-term-forecasts/
    The short-term forecasts list displays a maximum of 26 weeks prior and 26 weeks forward from the earlier of the current week or the last week in which a schedule exists. Use the search feature to find schedules, including those outside of the +/- 26-week window.

    The Schedules list displays a maximum of 26 weeks prior and 26 weeks forward from the earlier of the current week or the last week in which a schedule exists. Use the search feature to find schedules, including those outside of the +/- 26-week window.
