Management Unit Setting : Maximum Occupancy % for Deferred Work

  • 1.  Management Unit Setting : Maximum Occupancy % for Deferred Work

    Posted 4 days ago

    Hello Community, 

    I'm hoping to find some answers regarding the  "Maximum Occupancy % for Deferred Work" setting (Management Unit -  Scheduling tab).

    Using the following example from the resource center:

    Example: If you set a service goal so that agents will likely handle calls for 85% of their time, and then set the maximum occupancy percentage for deferred work to 95%, then the scheduling engine adds enough deferred work to require up to 10% of the agents' time. This feature allows agents configured to receive multiple interactions the ability to receive supplemental work while waiting for other interactions to arrive.

    1. If you set a service goal so that agents will likely handle calls for 85% of their time. Is the service goal we are discussing here sourced from the WFM service goal template or from the service level target of the queue (queue setting)?
    2. If we have separate queues for Voice and Email as well as separate planning group for each media type, will this setting still be applied?

    Thank you for any help you can provide!
