Solution

This is a configuration issue. In order to log in to a Supervisor Desktop, the ID must belong to a team of agents. It is necessary to run the Cisco Desktop Administrator to complete two tasks:

  • Add the Supervisor Desktop ID to the supervisor group

  • Add the Associate Supervisor Desktop ID to the team

The Supervisor window (Figure 3) displays a list of the supervisors available to a team. These supervisors are chosen from the list of agents set up in the Integrated Contact Distribution (ICD) server. It is possible to add or remove a supervisor and to view supervisor properties from this window.

Figure 4 shows the setup of agents for a particular team.

  • Agents selected for the team

  • Agents available to be assigned to the team

The list of available agents includes agents who have not yet been assigned to a team. An agent can belong to only one team at a time.
