Once the interaction has ended, the Interaction Window will default to the Agent Actions screen. If a Disposition Code is mandatory, that must be selected first before the Agent can finish the interaction. To finish the interaction, select Complete in the Interaction Window. This will close the Interaction Window and return the Agent to a Ready state.
Why did I receive a message that states "Connection Lost. Attempting to Reconnect?"
This message indicates that the Agent application detected that the browser is no longer connected to the Internet. The application is attempting to reconnect to the Internet to restore functionality. Once the Internet connection is restored, the Agent application will update to display the latest information.
Every HPBX user is configured with a primary device (or end point) that is the default for handling calls. When a call is “Accepted” via the Agent application, the system attempts to answer that call on the user’s primary device. Some Agents are configured with multiple devices such as a Handset in the office and UC-One while working from home. If that Agent is working from home (via UC-One) and their primary device is the handset in the office, hitting “Accept” will answer that call on the handset in the office. It is important to ensure that the primary device is properly configured for each Agent by working with Evolve IP’s Support team.
YES both versions of the Agent application are available for use. However, each Agent can only be signed into one version of the application at a time. For example, if an Agent launches the web version of the application while currently signed into the regular Windows version of the application, they will be automatically logged out of the first session.
When the ECS Agent tile is made available, it becomes visible to all members of that organization. However, users outside of the contact center will not be able to login to the Agent application even though they see the tile. In order to open the application, each user must pass a one-time authentication challenge where valid Agent credentials must be entered. Any user that does not need to access the Agent application can hide the tile by selecting ‘Hide Application” from the App Manager screen (accessed by selecting the wrench icon).
The Notifications can be blocked via the Browser or the underlying operating system (MacOS, Windows, etc.). It is recommended to enable Notifications because they will alert an Agent to an incoming interaction or other important action when they have navigated away from the browser tab. The Notification settings vary by browser and operating system so please consult online help or an Internet search for the exact steps. To restore notifications blocked by the Chrome browser, navigate to Settings > Privacy and Security > Site Settings > Notifications, select the Agent URL (ecs-web.evolveip.net), and select Allow from the options.
