1. Description
The State history tab is designed to view the chronology of states in which the Agent has been. It allows tracking periods of activity, pauses, waiting, missed calls, queue time, and other statuses throughout the working day.
The page consists of the following elements (Fig. 1):
-
Top bar with Agent information and status (Fig. 1.(1));
-
Filter panel (Fig. 1.(2));
-
Table with the list of states (Fig. 1.(3));
-
Pagination elements (Fig. 1.(4)).
1.2. How to change the Agent status
To change the current status of an Agent, make sure you have the appropriate permissions.
-
On the top bar, find the block displaying the current status of the Agent and the timer showing the duration of this status (Fig. 2).
-
Click on the timer field. A drop-down list of all available statuses will appear:
-
– Offline;
-
– Online;
-
– Pause.
-
Select the required status by clicking on it.
If you select the Pause status:
-
the Select a pause cause modal window opens automatically (Fig. 3);
-
choose the required reason from the list;
-
after selecting, click the OK button.
Important: A Supervisor can only transfer an Agent to those pauses for which the “Supervisor can change this status” option is enabled in Admin → Agent Statuses.
If this option is disabled, the status will not appear for the Supervisor in the drop-down list.
After the status is changed:
-
the Agent status is updated on the panel;
-
the timer resets and starts counting from the new status.
1.3. How to call an Agent
On the State history tab, you can directly initiate a call to the Agent if you have the appropriate permissions.
If the Agent has Do Not Disturb mode enabled, the internal call will not be delivered.
To make a call:
-
Click the Call button on the top bar (Fig. 5).
-
A minimized call window appears in the lower-right corner (Fig. 6). Dialing begins.
-
When hovering over the window, it expands (Fig. 7), showing control elements:
-
– mute microphone button;
-
– microphone off;
-
– hold button;
-
– Call on hold.
-
To end the call, click the End Call icon
.
After completion:
-
the call window closes automatically;
-
you return to the current Agent card view.
1.4. How to work with the registry of records

-
Start — the time when the state began;
