This includes both incoming and outgoing calls, and displays important information such as the agent, queue, and duration.<\/span><\/p><h2><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13761\" src=\"https:\/\/www.k12insight.com\/kc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Screenshot-2025-08-18-082710.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"691\" height=\"332\" \/><\/h2><h4><strong>Calls in Queue<\/strong><\/h4><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All waiting calls will be visible in your \u201cCalls in queue\u201d section. All incoming calls that are routed\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to a queue will be displayed here with important information such as the caller name, queue, and wait time. The calls are also shown in order, so the calls at the top of the queue will be taken first.<\/span><\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13114 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.k12insight.com\/kc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screenshot-2025-04-08-181038.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"610\" height=\"203\" \/><\/p><h4><strong>Callbacks<\/strong><\/h4><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your call center allows callbacks, they are shown slightly differently on the Queue Management dashboard. When a customer requests a callback, their place in the queue is held. However, they are now shown with a \u201cCallback Requested\u201d icon in the Call Queue. They will move in the queue the same as regular incoming calls, but when agents pick them up, they will be making an outgoing callback rather than immediately connecting with the customer.<\/span><\/p><h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13762\" src=\"https:\/\/www.k12insight.com\/kc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Screenshot-2025-08-18-083237.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"248\" height=\"177\" \/>Agent Queue<\/h4><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All agents are displayed in the Agents Queue section. Any agent that is working will be displayed on top, along with their specific status showing whether they are engaged in a call, wrapping up a call, or available. These agents are shown in order such that the agents on top will receive calls first. Any agents who finish a call will be placed at the bottom of the queue. Agents who are not working are shown below, either as Unavailable (meaning they\u2019re logged in) or offline.<\/span><\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13763\" src=\"https:\/\/www.k12insight.com\/kc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Screenshot-2025-08-18-085738.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"441\" height=\"464\" \/><\/p><h2><strong>Admin Call Management<\/strong><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to providing a real-time view of the call center, the queue management dashboard provides admin-level controls on calls in the queue.<\/span><\/p><h2><strong>Listen\/Barge During a Live Call<\/strong><\/h2><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13116 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.k12insight.com\/kc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screenshot-2025-04-08-181234.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"609\" height=\"211\" \/><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">System Administrators will see a list on the dashboard of all live calls. To silently listen in on an existing call, simply click on the \u2018Listen\u2019 button. Once you\u2019re listening to a live call, you\u2019ll see another option to \u2018Barge\u2019 in on the call, which allows you to join the call as an audible participant.<\/span><\/p><h2><strong>Update Call Queue Order<\/strong><\/h2><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13117 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.k12insight.com\/kc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screenshot-2025-04-08-181353.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"617\" height=\"191\" \/><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Queue Management Dashboard gives supervisors control over call prioritization by allowing them to reorder calls in the queue. Simply drag and drop the call the the appropriate position, and the calls will be picked up according to the new order.<\/span><\/p><h2><strong>Update Agent Statuses and Order<\/strong><\/h2><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13118 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.k12insight.com\/kc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screenshot-2025-04-08-181501.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"474\" height=\"180\" \/><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Supervisors also have controls over the agent queue. Similar to the call queue, they\u2019re able to drag and drop to rearrange the order in which agents receive calls. Additionally, supervisors can adjust individual agents statuses to make Available or Unavailable from either status, or from the Wrapping Up status.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Onflo (formerly Let's Talk!)
