  1. When a shift is removed from the roster management page (sometimes in error), the all associated data is wiped out. From what I understand, "actuals and occupancy are tied to the shift ID, which is a unique ID generated by the application during roster generation." Once an agent's scheduled is mistakenly deleted the agent's schedule and shift ID are removed along with all the metric that were attached to it. When we add a schedule back to the agent, the new shift ID is created but does not marry the metrics already in process or recorded.

    This affects the agent's…

  3. While manually editing the roster you can currently filter by name, team, business role, user location and user tag which is really useful, but it would improve the experience so much more if there was also the option to exclude certain users.

    ie. filter by 'Team A', exclude 'Business Role 1'

  4. Once a new recurring event is added to a roster config, the ability to add those events to already generated rosters without re-generating the roster (ie. with the optimize roster button). Currently you have to add each event individually even when they are in the roster, or regenerate and completely lose any manual changes you've made to a roster

  5. Shrink is visible on the coverage graph when no task is selected. However, when a workload task is selected, we do not see the shrink for that particular task. It is calculated in the effective roster number, however clients want to see the shrink by interval, even when selecting a specific task.

  7. It would be great to allow a calendar event to be rotated through a selected group of agents. At present you can only do an event rotation using the demand based events which can schedule around breaks and shrinkage tasks. Use case is that I need to create a calendar event for just one person per day for 4 hours but this is not possible as a calendar event cannot overwrite breaks and the schedule rules mean that breaks are added before events so the event a) does not work due to the fact that there is always a shrinkage…

  8. Example, Customer wants to schedule agents for 4 hours on chat then lunch and then 4 hours on tickets. Cannot be done in today's environment. This request has come up with multiple customers but as they have then churned it does not make the roadmap. Currently would be able to use this solution for an issue we have with eHealth QLD

  9. Ability to automatically transfer shifts content when a user is transferred to a team belonging to a different roster already generated.

    Today the team change is automatically done by the system but we have to cancel all shifts on the old roster and to create all shifts on the new roster (see enclosed document as example).

  10. Create a feature where on demand events (coachings/trainings) can be scheduled around an event participant's schedule (ie. Leaders/Trainers).

  11. to have the option to set the available slots for Opt-in hours to be set for the whole day or for the whole week.

    For instance, the current setup is you have to set the number of slots available per hourly interval per day when setting up Opt-in Hoours. But for companies who are always on "OPEN OT", this will be a drag to set up since you have to update it day by day; hour by hour.

    If having a button that you can click that will set the available slot to a fixed number for all hourly intervals…

  12. Once we create a roster event, we cannot see when individual events are created. We would like to be able to edit the roster event to add/remove/ individuals/entire events in a one-stop shop format.

  13. When agents are trained on different skills, they handle multiple types of calls at once. Agents are often trained on different groups of skills, so there is no one way to cut workloads that fits all agents.

    This causes scheduling to specific tasks to be unreliable when assessing coverage for different lines of business. It also means the SLA projections are often too low because they do not take into account cross-skilling, only the tasks agents are scheduled for.

    In the attached image, coverage is quite good, but it looks like SLAs will be at 0% for certain workstreams because…

  14. When an admin adjusts someone's shift in the Manage Roster section, the event such as coaching or meeting moves with the shift. Could we offer a pop up to occur if someone tried to slide a shift with a meeting event on it, to ask if they want to lock the event or move it with the shift?

  16. As we start to utilize Playvox, we would love to see the ability to lock a roster period so one cannot accidentally re-run the roster and lose all adjustments done to that period.

  17. Allow the ability to search the workplan(s) that an agent is in at the roster configuration page. It is possible that an agent can be on several workplans, so having this functionality will allow for efficiency on this page. Also, when a client has several workplans, it may not be obvious as to the workplans they are a part of. This can help with troubleshooting as to why an agent has the incorrect workload task on their schedule, etc.

  18. We're in the process of pulling together the logistics of being able to generate and publish our rosters for the remainder of the year.

    However given the size of our main roster, it does take between 45/55mins to generate one and sometimes results in it timing out.

    As a potential future feature, we would love to see a Roster Generation queuing function built in to enable us to stack all the rosters we wish to generate. We'd then have them begin generating at a defined point in time (end of day/working week) so they can effectively generate in the background…

  19. When you create a shift template and attach users, the client thinks that this is all that needs to be done to create a schedule. In fact, one big piece is left and it isn't intuitive that it needs to be done. We need to somehow notify clients once they create a shift template that they need to add it to the roster configuration that houses the agents tied to that shift template. Today, there isn't any link other than troubleshooting that is advised to them by their onboarding manager or consultant.

  20. Default workload tasks are currently assigned to any agent with remaining availability after the forecasted allocations have been reached. This means that agents without the required business role are assigned a default task that they may not be skilled to complete.
    By allowing multiple default workloads that are driven by business role - with business role being the priority rule - then workplans can contain multiple different user groups with different skill sets and not allocate incorrect workloads to unskilled agents
