Copy users to selected queues

After selecting users from the Queue details view, a button for Copy users is displayed at bottom of the screen. Copying here means copying the selected users to one or multiple target queues. This can be useful when several users need to be added to a busy service queue quickly.

Selecting Copy users option opens a new view where target queue(s) are selected:

Clicking Copy button copies the users to target queue(s). Users also remain unchanged in the source queue.

Users will be active in the selected queues immediately after copying.

Set age bonus

Set age bonus link opens a dialog where age bonus can be changed if that feature is available for the queue.

Please note: Age bonus functionality is not available in this view if you have queue management tools enabled. In that case you can change age bonus (queue priority) in queue management tools.

Age bonus - service queue priority

Set age bonus dialog contains a slider which is be used for defining a service queue's priority. The priority is defined using Age bonus setting. An age bonus is used to prioritize service calls between queues. The age bonus makes the calls appear “older” than they actually are. A higher age bonus means that calls in the queue are prioritized first since they appear older and are allocated first to serving users.

Age bonus can be selected from 0 min to 10 min in 30 sec steps. Clicking on the Show large time range checkbox extends this time range to 3 hours with steps of 1 min.

If there are already calls in queue, then changing the priority value changes also the priority of existing calls in queue.

Close and Save buttons at the bottom are used to save or discard any possible changes. Both close the dialog.

Add users

This view lists users who can be added to the queue.

Add users as active switches between adding the users active or inactive.

Users are added to the queue by selecting them with checkboxes. Selecting any checkbox reveals the Add button at bottom of the screen.
