  • 1.  Transfers (Blind or Consult) to External Contact via 'Calls' UI

    Posted 23 days ago

    Hi,

    Following the new navigation UI deployment we are having issues transferring to external contacts. The 'calls' UI allows you to search (by name) and then select the corresponding external contact, but when it comes to selecting either the blind or consult buttons nothing happens.

    When performing the same process using the 'transfer' button from within the 'agent workspace' UI it works as expected.

    Our org is in London and no role / permissions have been altered prior to GA release.

    I've reviewed 'aha' ideas lab but nothing looks to have been raised - any one else incurring this problem ?

    Regards,

    Hi Neil,

    You might want to recheck the permissions anyways:

    Blind and Consult transfer buttons appear only if you have the correct permissions:

    • blindTransferExternal and consultTransferExternal
    • Plus related queue permissions - If one is missing, the button may appear but fail to execute.

    Also, new navigation UI does not change functionality, but some features may have regressions during rollout, as per Genesys.
    If you do not see any idea already logged, then feel free to raise one: Genesys Idea Portal

    Hope this helps.
    thanks

    Hi Ashiesh,

    I have all the required permissions for transferring - see screen shot below according to Genesys RC, but sadly it doesn't work. I can however use the name of the flow that the assigned DiD for a external contact uses to transfer. I don't believe it to be a permissions issue from what I can see.

    Hi @Neil Jones!

    Did you checked the console and network logs? If any error occurs when you click in some of the option, it should log in there.

    In my case, I reproduced this scenario and got this logs, Genesys Customer Care can help you indentify what is missing or wrong is the error wasn't clear.

    Hi Debora, and thanks for your quick response.

    Those were my next port of call, and after capturing I see the same error as you. I've shared with our Genesys partner for support escalation.

    Transferring to external contacts in the way did work prior to the new navigational UI being released. My assumption is this wasn't picked up the the BETA or phased role out prior to GA release this week.

    Many thanks for your valued feedback.

    Regards,

    Hey Neil,

    Our business is having the Exact same issue as you when trying to transfer call out to an External Contact.  Have you heard back from Genesys Support on what the fix is?

    Thank you in Advance!

    Hi Tony,

    Was escalated to Genesys Support yesterday by our partner - no response as yet, but I can update this thread on progress...

    Not sure if you are aware, but if like us, you use 'external contacts' to transfer to different internal departments (has a assigned DiD / architect flow) you can use the flow name as a workaround.

    We use 'external contacts' in this way to secure the audio for customer payment collection, i.e. transfers off Genesys to PCI-Pal.

    Regards,

    Hi Tony,

    Just a quick update...

    Fix has been deployed to our region (EUW2 - London) and external contact transfers are now working as expected.
