Call Preference Breakdown

Wrap-up Time (seconds)

This option will give the agent time to enter notes into the call record, after taking a call in the specified seconds value. 

Maximum Callers in Queue

This option will use the provided value to determine when to route calls according to the settings in the Destination if No Answer section after reaching the specified threshold. 

Priority Queue

This option will prioritize calls from this queue over calls from other queues the extension agents are a member of. Example: A support team has one queue for normal support calls, and another queue for VIP customers, so even though serviced by the same agents, calls from the VIP queue get priority.

Configure SLA Time in (seconds)

This option will have the calls that remain unanswered in the queue considered as breaching the SLA time limit in relevant reports and statistics if they exceed the number of seconds set in this field.
