  • Available now. If an agent is 'Available now', the agent is in Ready state in ContactWorld and can accept a case.
  • Logged in. If an agent is 'Logged in', the agent is either on a call and therefore in Busy state, or in an Away, Wrap Up or fault state in ContactWorld. The agent is not currently available to work on a case immediately but can be assigned a case now to work on when they become available.
  • Logged out. If an agent is 'Logged out', the agent is not logged in to ContactWorld. The agent is not currently able to work on a case immediately but can be assigned a case now to work on when they log in.
Info

How soon a Logged in or Logged out agent can handle an assigned case depends on their existing workload and the number and priority of waiting interactions.

Lines and queues are differentiated from agents in the list by their logos:  (line), (queue).

At a glance an agent can see the availability of other agents to take a call. The statuses are represented by the following logos:  (Available now),  (Logged in),  (Logged out).

In the example, Benjy and Carys are available right away for both calls and cases; Bob and Abraham are logged in but temporarily unavailable—they can be assigned a case for later; and Bethany, Carl and Celia are logged out but can be assigned cases for later.
