  • 1.  Queuing for an individual Agent

    Posted 02-22-2021 12:54
    I trying to figure out how we can have a customer route to a specific agent and wait in queue for that agent if they are busy.  I don't want to create a separate queue for each agent as there are too many agents.  Dial by name is in the Ideas Portal even then the agent would still need their own queue.   Any ideas out there.

    Martin - have you tried 'Preferred Agent Routing'?  This will enable you to define a target agent and hold the interaction for them for a max of 15 minutes.  (We are currently working to increase that timer to 24 hours and beyond), but that should meet your needs especially if you are working with calls.

    Thanks, Chris.  Hopefully, I will have time tomorrow to configure a test Queue with Preferred Agent routing and see how it works.
