#LanguageSkills #Priority#InboundInteraction#Priority#In-Queue#Priority
We have added Skills, English and Spanish. We are trying to have the Spanish skill interactions set to a higher priority than other interactions that have been sitting in the queue waiting for an agent to pick the interaction up. 

Skills are currently configured by State for the agents with stars along  with Spanish and English skills also set with stars

What we are trying to resolve is that when there are several interactions that have been sitting in the queue for 24 or 48 hours, the priority of the English Skill and  States become a higher priority, so the agent with the Spanish speaking skill is receiving other interactions before the Spanish interaction comes through. 

Should we be using Languages vs Skills added to the user(s)? We want the agents with Spanish-speaking skill to go on queue and receive the Spanish-speaking cases before any other case interactions come through to them.

As @David Farrell  said, Genesys Cloud does not consider Proficiency when selecting an interaction for an agent that becomes available (when there are multiple interactions waiting.) Basically, it's the interaction that's been waiting the longest (with an Priority applied as an offset) amongst all of the interactions the Agent is eligible to receive (i.e. in a queue they are active in and have the necessary skills, at any proficiency.)

IMHO this is a failing in Genesys Cloud, and is part of the ACD engine that needs to be brought over from PureConnect (which did do this.) I have added an idea which you might want to upvote (https://genesyscloud.ideas.aha.io/ideas/CERTNG-I-1754)

Also, when researching this, I saw a few ideas that suggest that Language Skills are not "Proficiency Aware", some of those are listed as having been released, but not all, so I'm still trying to figure out of Language Proficiency is actually considered.
