Combine both SMA and seasonal forecasting into one
Can we only use seasonal forecasting when we believe the YOY pattern will be same (which I believe is something Greg said in his training) / Observation: it seems like the platform should be able to combine both SMA and seasonal forecasting into one
With Aspect it had the ability to control inside of the forecast how important are long term and short term trends. Being able to adjust how much of the forecast was impacted by close in trends.
Ideally the platform would understand the seasonal nature of the environment, but be able to use recent trends to increase…

Expose Recent Volume Trends in Forecast Configuration
Display volume trends as a percent in the Forecast configuration that can be edited if preferred. For instance, it's showing ^5% as the recent trend it's using to calculate the upcoming forecasts, the client can choose to keep that or can edit it to something else they would like to use for the upcoming forecast.

Historical Patterns Summary | Ability to Export Intraday AFAHT Data
We are able to export the intraday volume graph, the daily historical volume pattern graph, and the intraday historical volume pattern as .csv or .xls. However, the last graph for AFAHT, you cannot export as .csv or .xls. Could we make it possible to do so? Reason being twofold; the other three graphs are exportable, and then this is the only place AFAHT is all encompassing by day and interval.

Make it easier to re-run the forecast
Currently, to re-run the forecast after a change is made you have to click Edit > Set Last Run Timestamp, then save workstream configuration, then fully leave the Forecast section and come back after 5-10 minutes. It would be nice if there was a straightforward way to re-run it.

Normalize AHT by Interval
Allows us to be able to smooth out a forecast by being able to adjust/normalize anomalies at the interval level by AHT. Big win for forecasting, as you would avoid forecasting spikes at certain intervals to data load, etc.

Have an option for import forecast to adjust existing forecast volume rather than override
Having the ability to keep normal forecast intact, when import manual forecast have it show as adjusted forecast, not override forecast volume. Currently it will override the forecast, not show as the adjusted.

Zendesk allow only one ticket open to accurately capture AHT
Would like the Playvox widget in Zendesk to restrict ticket tabs to allow only one ticket at a time to be open. Also would like the widget to continually track AHT and not allow agents to be in a ticket status without a ticket open.

Historical Pattern Summary - Ability to select day of week when looking at multiple weeks
When I'm looking at multiple weeks at a time I'd like to be able to filter down to day of week. For example if I'm analyzing the last four weeks but only want to see the last four Mondays side by side. A day of week filter option would allow me to do this.

A Place to Note System Outages
I'd like a place where I can notate when system issues and outages occurred for forecasting purposes. I don't want this to be coded on an agent's schedule or for the agents to flip into this status in their actuals as this would remove them from phone availability. I currently can make notes in edit forecast and in historical pattern summary, but I would want this even for small incremental system issues where it wouldn't result in having to normalise the day or edit a forecast. I would want this to be exportable, ideally at an interval leave so I…

Manage Forecast - Scenarios Override Can Only Choose Percent for Volume
Manage Forecast and Scenarios. When you open an override, if you want to create one for volume, the only dropdown is to do it by percent.
Could we model after the AHT option, which includes percent, value, and increment.

Override a daily forecast from (Edit Forecast Screen) by volume or (+/- percentage)
When editing the forecast on Edit Forecast, I can only make changes by altering the 'daily forecast volume' in terms of actually manually changing the number.
It would be nice to have other methods to update the daily forecast volume, such as by applying a set percentage increase / decrease for the date range or selected time intervals

Intraday Template Second Workload Column Should Be AFSHT
Intraday historical template, the second workload column should be AFSHT, not AFAHT. I tried importing it for the first time using data in both columns today, and it simply overrode the AFAHT when I kept the column titles unchanged. It ended up giving me just one column. When I changed the column title to AFSHT, it took the second column as solved handle time as I expected to see. Adding an attachment for reference.

Show weekends on Forecast export, even if value is '0'.
When using Seasonality forecasts and the option to forecast for weekends separately - include weekends as entries on the forecast export CSV, even if the value for that day/weekend is 0. Currently, these do not show if the value is '0'.

Import fixed FTE forecasts for multiple weeks
Currently, the CSV import of a fixed interval FTE forecast only takes in up to a seven day Monday-Sunday period. It would be helpful in our use case (forecasting for work outside of Playvox that does not have a workstream integration) to mass import for multiple weeks at a time.

Ability to add a minimum FTE requirement & Shrinkage for a workstream as a scenario
Extend the current scenario functionality to allow you to select a minimum FTE requirements either for all coverage hours or between specific business hours. In addition, the ability to program shrinkage % in the workstream scenario to ensure that coverage is always x% over the minimum requirement - currently this is programmed at the workplan level

Configure the historical data to use for Forecast Arrival Patterns
Allow you to configure which historical days, weeks, months you want to use for forecasting the arrival patterns rather than the last 6 weeks. Also allowing a combination of these options to be used. ie. Thanksgiving week 2022 can be used for Thanksgiving week 2023. Or rather than a week since the day can move, Christmas Eve 2022 (Saturday) can be pulled in for just this coming Christmas 2023 (Sunday) arrival pattern. This would reduce the need to create custom intraday profiles via csv import.
