Hello

I was wondering of it is possible to have Queue Agents with the same priority (penalty) but with a certain order ?

So I have 20 Agents.

Agent 1 till Agent 10 has penalty 1.

Agent 11 till Agent 15 has penalty 2.
(only contacted if 1 -> 10 are busy)

Agent 16 till Agent 20 has penalty 3.
(only contacted if 1 -> 10 and 11 -> 15 are busy)


Within the range of Agent 1 till Agent 10, can I have a certain order in these Agents in which they are rung ?? Like Agent 1 -> Agent 5 -> Agent 2 & 3 & 4 -> Agent 6 -> Agent 7 -> Agent 8 & 9 & 10.



I guess I need 'linear' strategy, but will penalty option still work ?




Thank you for your feedback.

Kind regards.


Jonas.

What's wrong with giving agent 1 penalty 1; agent 5 penalty 2; agents 2, 3 and
4 penalty 3; agent 6 penalty 4, agent 7 penalty 5, and so forth?

By giving a different penalty to Agents 1 to 10, there is no order. With penalty, the Agent keeps on being contacted untill it takes the call. Many forget that this is how penalties work !


So in stead of going from Agent 1 to Agent 5 to Agent 2,3,4 it is very possible that Agent 5 keeps on ringing when Agent 1 is 'busy calling', in stead of going further to Agents 2,3,5.

In your case, Agent 5 will be called over and over again untill it takes the call.


Not exactly what I'm looking for.



Kind regards,

Jonas.
