Teams are a flexible way to organize any number of users. Example uses for teams include:
Groups of users who are skilled for a particular function.
A team leader and their team members.
Users in a certain Location.
User grouped by the shift timing.
A team organizes groups of users. You can use teams to assign users to call or chat queues, to control (in conjunction with custom roles and permissions) the types of data that users can access, and for reporting. You can designate a team manager who can control data access for team members.
Used to organize a list of users.
Users can be assigned to multiple teams.
Team managers will have access to monitoring information of the agents on their team and any sub-teams.
Agents in the sub-team of a top-level team will be assigned to any queues that the top-level team is assigned to.
For example, if the top-level team is Support, and the sub-team is L1, and Support is assigned to a queue, L1 will also be assigned and will be offered calls from that queue
When using teams to assign agents to a queue, a team manager with an agent role can be assigned to a queue.
Configuration
The following sections describe how to add and configure teams.
Add a new team
In the CCAI Platform portal, go to Settings > Users & teams.
Click Add a team.
Enter a team name. The team name cannot contain colons ":".
Click Add.
View existing users and teams
The user list for any selected team will only display the list of users directly assigned to that team or sub-team. To avoid confusion and not show an agent or user assigned to a sub-team multiple times in any higher-level teams, users only show in the team they are directly assigned to.
Example:
Top-level team A (450 users) - all 450 agents are assigned to sub-teams, none are directly assigned to team A - user list will show: 0 users
Team A-1 (200 users) - user list will show: 200 users
Team A-2 (150 users) - user list will show: 150 users
Team A-3 (100 users) - user list will show: 0 users
Team A-3.1 (90 users) - user list will show: 90 users
Team A-3.2 (10 users) - user list will show: 10 users
