  • 1.  Limit calls to an agent while they are on a call

    Posted 09-22-2022 16:38

    Hi all!

    Thanks in advance for your help with the following question:

    Is it possible to limit an agent so that when he has a live incoming call, he cannot make an outgoing call at the same time?

    Regards.

    Hello Camilo,

    Genesys Cloud does allow an agent to place a new call while on a call - essentially putting the inbound call on hold and then placing a new outbound call on behalf of a queue. The ability to place another call on behalf of a queue has permission requirements as seen on this Resource Center page. Limiting agents of the listed permissions should disable the ability. The first 5 permissions do overlap with an agent's access to the Interactions Panel, so I suggest removing the other permissions on the list and see if that disables the ability to make an outgoing call.

    Camilo, we don't have a specific solution for this.  (Thanks, Jan for laying out our current flow!)  If you are interested in this as a feature, please open an idea and we can track this appropriately.

    Thanks,

    Chris
