Add cards

Add and configure one card at a time using the following instructions.

The colors and scale of the gauge or bar in the cards Longest queuing time and In queue are based on the settings configured in System Configurator (SC). Check with your administrator to ensure the following values have been set for the queues you selected.

  • Queue or channel setting Answered-on-time limit: The gauge and bar overall scaling are based on the values defined for this setting.

  • Queue level setting Warning level of queuing time: When the queuing time exceeds the defined value, the gauge, bar, and numeric will turn yellow.

  • Queue level setting Critical level of queuing time: When the queuing time exceeds the defined value, the gauge, bar, and numeric will turn red.

You can choose one or more queues. A single card can contain a mix of channel types, such as calls, emails, and chats.

  • Card with a single queue: The gauge, bar, or numeric increases based on the conversation with the longest queuing time in the queue, progressing through the green stage (acceptable queuing time) yellow stage (warning level queuing time) then red (critical level queuing) until the answered-on-time limit is met or exceeded.

  • Card with multiple queues: The card focuses on queues with the longest-waiting conversation or the largest number of conversations. Using the link to the dropdown gives a further breakdown of the listed queue situations.
