Interested to know how many interactions you can handle across different communication channels, such as phone calls, chat sessions, or emails? Channel capacity in Webex Contact Center Desktop determines your ability to effectively manage multiple interactions simultaneously, enhancing your productivity within the contact center environment.
Channel capacity offers details on the routing type and the maximum number of contacts that you can handle on each media channel. Your administrator determines your channel capacity, setting the maximum number of simultaneous contacts based on your multimedia profile and the queue in each specific channel.
To access channel capacity, click your User Profile. The available media channels include chat, email, voice, and social. For instance, if the channel capacity states 1 for voice and 3 for chat, it means you can handle one incoming voice call and up to three chat requests at a time.
 | The media channel badges are highlighted only when capacity is allocated. For example, if the number of contacts you can handle for voice is set as 1 and for chat as 0, the media channel badge for voice is highlighted while the badge for chat appears disabled. |
The following are the media details:
