Scheduled Callbacks view

PrerequisitesClick to expand

The Scheduled Callbacks view displays all callbacks scheduled by agents during interactions and the callbacks created by the Schedule Callback action in a call rule. There are two types of scheduled callbacks in this view:

Scheduled callbacks with agent ownership: If an administrator has enabled agent-owned callbacks for a queue, agents in that queue can take ownership of their scheduled callbacks. If the agent who owns the callback is unavailable at the scheduled callback time, the callback waits for the agent to become available. If an agent has taken ownership of the scheduled callback, the name of the agent who owns the callback appears in the Agent Owner column.
Scheduled callbacks without agent ownership: Either the administrator did not enable agent-owned callbacks for the queue or the agent did not take ownership of the scheduled callback. In this case, the Agent Owner column is blank.

Available columns

To view the available columns, see the Scheduled Callbacks view section in the View available columns in performance views by category article.

Set a default time zone in the workspace

You can set the default time zone in the analytics workspace before viewing any analytics view.

To set the default time zone in the workspace, follow these steps:

Click Performance > Workspace.
Click Menu > Analytics > Analytics Workspace.
On the left side, from the Time zone drop-down menu, select the required time zone as the default time zone for the analytics workspace.

View Scheduled Callbacks

To view and manage scheduled callbacks, click Performance > Workspace > Contact Center > Scheduled Callbacks.

To view and manage scheduled callbacks, click Menu > Analytics > Analytics Workspace > Contact Center > Scheduled Callbacks.

By default, the view shows both types of callbacks – those with an agent owner and those without an agent owner. To view only one or the other, click Filters , and then click Yes or No under Agent Owned.

Note: This view only displays callbacks that are currently scheduled even though a user can select a historical date/time. Callbacks previously scheduled and taken place in the past do not appear in this view.

Manage Scheduled Callbacks

From the Scheduled Callbacks view, you can manage scheduled callbacks in the following ways:

For agent-owned callbacks, you can cancel, reschedule, or reassign to another queue and agent.
For scheduled callbacks without agent ownership, you can cancel or reschedule.

Cancel a scheduled callbackClick to expand

You can cancel any type of scheduled callback (those with or without agent ownership), and you can cancel a single scheduled callback or you can cancel multiple scheduled callbacks at once.

There are two ways to cancel a scheduled callback:

Option 1 - available for single cancellation:

At the end of the row containing the callback you want to cancel, click More .
Click Edit Callback to open the Edit Callback(s) window.
Click Cancel Callbacks.

Option 2 - available for single or bulk cancellation:

Select the scheduled callback you want to cancel.
Click the Edit Callbacks button at the top of the Scheduled Callbacks view. This opens the Edit Callback(s) window.
Click Cancel Callbacks.

Reschedule a scheduled callbackClick to expand

You can reschedule any type of scheduled callback (the callback with or without agent ownership), meaning you can change the date or the time of a scheduled callback.

To reschedule a scheduled callback:

At the end of the row containing the callback you want to reschedule, click More .
To open the Edit Callback(s) window, click Edit Callback.
Click Reschedule Callback.
Select the new date and time for the scheduled callback.
Click Next.
Review the new scheduled date and time and click Confirm. Otherwise, click Previous to return to the Edit Callback screen or click Cancel to cancel the action.

Note:

The reschedule period adheres to the queue setting that defines how far in advance an agent can schedule a callback. For example, if the cut-off for an agent to schedule a callback is February 15, all rescheduling dates beyond February 15 will be grayed out in this view.
You cannot reschedule a callback if the callback is scheduled within the next 15 minutes.

Reassign an agent-owned callbackClick to expand

You can reassign agent-owned callbacks to another agent within the same queue or to another queue and agent. You can re-assign a single agent-owned callback or multiple agent-owned callbacks at once.

There are two ways to reassign an agent-owned callback:

Single cancellation
Single or bulk cancellation

Single cancellation

At the end of the row containing the callback you want to cancel, click More .
To open the Edit Callback(s) window, click Edit Callback .
Click Reassign Callbacks.
In the Queue text box, start typing the name of the queue that the new agent owner belongs to.
In the Agent Callback Owner text box, start typing the name of the new agent owner.

Single or bulk cancellation

Select the scheduled callback you want to cancel.
Click the Edit Callbacks button at the top of the Scheduled Callbacks view. This opens the Edit Callback(s) window.
Click Reassign Callbacks.
In the Queue text box, start typing the name of the queue that the new agent owner belongs to.
In the Agent Callback Owner text box, start typing the name of the new agent owner.

Notes:

The callbacks are automatically placed on behalf of the queue or campaign, and use the queue’s ANI or the campaign’s , not the agent’s ANI.
For callbacks without agent ownership, when a callback reaches its scheduled time, it is removed from the list and sent to the originating queue.
In some instances, a scheduled callback has both a queue and a campaign associated with it. When that occurs, the queue takes precedence over the campaign.
For agent-owned callbacks, if the schedule out maximum for a queue changes after the callback is scheduled, the existing callback scheduled date will be used.
