How do I assign skills and edit skill levels as a supervisor?

Administrators can manage users—both agent and supervisor—and assign them to skills and groups. Supervisors can manage skills for voice-function-enabled users who are members of the groups they have read/write access to, or, if enabled, for users who are not assigned to any groups.

To allow supervisors to manage skills, edit their permission settings and enable the following options under Real Time in the Full Permission List section:

  • To edit and assign skills to voice-function-enabled users in the supervisor's groups, select yes for the Edit agents permission.
  • To assign skills to users that do not belong to any groups, select yes for the View Unassigned Agents permission.

For more information about editing permissions in User Access, see Editing linked account permissions.

To find out what groups a supervisor has access to, perform the following steps:

  1. Go to User Admin.
  2. Locate the supervisor you want to check group access for using search or by scrolling the list of users.
  3. When you find the supervisor you want to edit, click Edit. The user's details appear.
    Click Permission Settings. You can see the groups the supervisor has read or write access to.

To assign skills to voice-enable users in a group, perform the following steps:

  1. Log in to the VCC Admin Portal as a supervisor. For information about logging in to the VCC Admin Portal, see Logging in to the Vonage Contact Center Admin Portal.
  2. In User Admin, click the Skills tab. You will see the list of available skills.
  3. Edit the skill you wish to assign or change level for. To assign the skill to a voice-function-enabled user you have access to, select or type their name under Users, in the Type name to be added field. If enabled for your account, adjust skill levels for your users by clicking the appropriate number on the slider.
  4. Click Update to save your settings or Cancel to undo your changes.
