Answer (Solution/Recommendation)
To change an agent's permission to enter or leave the queue in wolkvox Manager, follow these steps:
- Enter wolkvox Manager and in the left side menu select Agents & Skills > Agents.
- Locate the agent you want to change this setting for. You can search for them by agent ID or name.
- Right click on the agent and select "Edit Agent Information".
- In the pop-up window, go to the Advanced Information tab.
- In the "Show switch for agent to enter or exit queue" field, select one of the following options from the drop-down menu:
- "yes": The agent will be able to see and use the “In Queue” switch in wolkvox Agent, allowing them to opt in or out of the call and chat queue.
- "no": The agent will not be able to see or modify their status in the queue, so they will always be available to receive interactions.
- Click "Save" to apply the changes.
💡 Note: If the switch is disabled, the agent will not be able to leave the queue and will continue to receive calls and chats according to their skill settings.
