• For optimal performance, we recommend a maximum of 500 agents across all managed teams in the supervisor view of the Team Performance Details page. This ensures you can access all the information that you need without delay or performance issues.

  • Desktop profile has an option to explicitly specify buddy teams. We recommend that when you explicitly specify buddy teams, ensure that the number of agents available in those buddy teams doesn't exceed the maximum limit of 1000.

  • Explicitly configure wrap-up codes and idle codes for Desktop profiles. We recommend that the maximum values don't exceed 50.

  • We recommend that you explicitly specify the managed queues and managed teams in the profile. Ensure that the maximum values for managed queues and managed teams don't exceed 250 and 100 respectively.

Team performance details

Column nameDescription

Agent Name

Displays the name and profile picture (Webex image) of the agent.

Agent State

The work status while using Supervisor Desktop. The agent availability state includes Available, Idle codes, or RONA.

Agent State Duration

The time that the agent has been in the current state. The state timer format is hh:mm:ss (for example, 01:10:25).

Phone Number

Dial number or extension of the agent signed in.

Site

Name of the site with which the agent is associated.

Team

Name of the team with which the agent is associated.

Channels

The mode of communication through which an agent can communicate. For example, voice call.

Contact Queue

Name of the queue that the agent routes the request to.

Contact Status

The status of the agent in an active call. For example, Connected, Consulting, Conference, or Wrap up.

Time in Contact Status

The time spent by an agent in an active call. For example, the time an agent is in a conference call.

Interaction Duration

The total duration of the interaction between the agent and the contact from when the call is connected, including all states such as On Hold, Consult, and Conference, but excluding Wrap-up.

This metric helps you determine if the agent is spending more time than necessary with the contact and may need assistance in handling the customer.

Total Contact Duration

Total duration of the contact from when it was first connected (including any other state like Consult or Conference in the same contact).

The time elapsed since the agent accepted the request. The connected timer format is hh:mm:ss (for example, 01:10:25).

Sign In Time

The time an agent has signed in to the Supervisor Desktop. The date and time format is dynamic and displays according to location.

By default, the table rows sort according to the sign-in time. The most recent sign-in time appears at the top of the list.

Action

Based on your user profile privileges, set by your administrator, you can perform the following actions from the Actions column:

  • Review and monitor ()—Silently monitor and review agent calls.

  • Send message ()—Send a one-on-one message to an agent.

  • Change state ()—Change an agent's state.

  • Sign Out Agent ()—Sign an agent out when they are not actively interacting with a customer.

    This applies to agents who have left for the day while in a wrap-up state, are still marked as available (causing calls to be routed to them), or have accepted an asynchronous interaction, such as an email. If agents are currently engaged in an interaction, you need to wait until they complete it before signing them out.

Monitor agents on a call

Review and track an agent's performance without affecting an ongoing call.

Before you begin

You can only monitor one agent at a time. If another supervisor tries to monitor the same agent, the Start Monitoring button is disabled. If multiple supervisors try to monitor an agent simultaneously, monitoring is initiated for one supervisor and the system displays an error for the other supervisors.

6

(Optional) Click Barge In to barge into the call that you're monitoring.

The mic turns on and you join the interaction with the customer.

  • You can’t barge into a call being monitored by another supervisor or if the agent is in a consultation call with another agent.

  • Other supervisors can't monitor or barge into the call that you are monitoring.

  • You can’t barge into a call monitoring that you have paused. Resume the monitoring to enable barge in.

  • If the agent consults another agent after you've barged in, you're put on hold and the barge in resumes after the consultation ends.

  • If the agent transfers the call that you have barged in to, to another agent from a different team or to a different queue, the monitoring ends and an error message displays.

  • You can't transfer the call, drop the agent, initiate a consult call, or start a conference call during the barge in.

  • You can't barge in if Desktop telephony is disconnected.

  • End the monitoring activity to end the barge in.

7

(Optional) Click Whisper Coach to communicate privately with agents during a live call without the customer hearing.

If Desktop telephony is disconnected, you can't whisper coach.
