Hi,

I've tried googling, searching libraries, and searching the resource center but I've been unable to find anything. 

Would anyone know what these two columns mean when I'm trying to schedule a meeting for my agents?

Does Difference (After) mean that's how many agents I'll be short during the meeting? Is that number based on actual staff count or from the forecast - how many people we're short?

Does Scheduled (After) mean how many agents will be left on queue during the meeting I scheduled? Thank you for your help!

Hi Jacqueline, 

these columns refer to the predicted staffing levels once the meeting has been scheduled.
The Add Activity to Agents feature only looks at the under and over-staffing slots. As you add more agents to the activity we calculate:

• Difference (After)
  • The predicted difference between the required staffing and scheduled staffing levels after the activity is added to the schedule.
• Schedule (After) 
  • The predicted number of Scheduled staff after the meeting has been added to the schedule 

Depending on the type of Activity you are scheduling you may find that our coming soon feature Activity Plans might be a better solution. Activity Plans is due for release 12th of August, you can take a sneak peek at the documentation on the resource centre to get a better understanding of it at the link below. Activity Plans work within a configured range of Service Goals to ensure that Service Goals and User Experience are protected.

Please note that the documentation may change for the full release based on feedback from the current closed beta.
