Today's Roster

Rostering for the current day is generated based on the forecast made by using the call history data. However, due to the real-time data there may be some deviations from the forecast. You can adjust the roster as required. You can update your roster by un-assigning employees not available to handle calls due to absence or other reasons, by assigning previously unassigned rosters, and by adding new rosters for additions to your workforce.

NOTE: Only rosters assigned to employees are included in the Current Assign column on the Current Day Worksheet.

Graphical View

You can view a roster in a graphical view.

  • The landing page is the filtering section. Using Filters, you can filter by Date, Sort by, Skill Team, Emp Team, and Site.
  • Once you have selected your filters and clicked Apply, the empty section populates with the information you selected in the filters (Date, Sort by, Skill Team, Emp Team, and Site).
  • The Assigned only checkbox shows only assigned agents.
  • You can view the roster by clicking View Roster. You can then return to the graphical view by clicking Graphical View, and then Apply.
  • If you have a 24-hour contact center, and there is some overlap, you can look at the previous day and the day ahead by using the Arrows.

  • If a shift is shaded, you cannot adjust it. Click the Arrow until you see the future date, and then scroll. To return to the current view, click Apply.

  • The Legend is a breakdown of the available activities in an agent's schedule, and the corresponding color code. This is set in RTA Configuration.

The view can be modified by right-clicking in the row heading section, and un-checking the choices
