Telephony

Prerequisites

Ensure that your contact center is SIP-enabled.

Ensure that you log on to Agent Desktop.

Ensure that you have either supervisor or agent-supervisor privileges.

Procedure steps

Step Action

1On the Agent Desktop Top bar menu, click Observe.

In the Assigned Agents box, the green circle indicates the assigned agents that are ready to receive calls, and the red circle indicates the assigned agents that are not ready to receive calls.

2In the Supervisor Control dialog box, under Current Agent Contacts, select the call that you want to observe.

3Click Observe.

A new call is presented on the Agent Desktop of the supervisor. The new call is not a Contact Center call, so the agent does not need to be ready. The call connects the supervisor or agent-supervisor to the selected Agent call.

4Accept the call ringing on your Agent Desktop.

Barging in on a call

Barge in on a call if you are observing a call that needs immediate supervisor attention. When using the barge-in function, the supervisor or agent-supervisor can participate in a call between the agent and the customer.

The agent or customer on the call cannot hear the supervisor join or leave the call. The supervisor or agent-supervisor actions do not affect the original call or the normal connect and disconnect actions of the agent and customer conversation.

Procedure steps

Step Action

1In the Supervisor Control dialog box, click Barge-In.
