Queue List
Queue is used to manage a group of agent users that will support customers on a specific subject and to route the incoming calls to the available agent(s) in the queue based on the configured Routing Strategy.
QUEUE LIST displays all queues that have been created in your tenant.
On Queue List, you can:
See the list of queues that are available for your call center. Each queue has these information:
Name: Short name of the queue.
Description: Description of the queue.
Owner: Person name who owns the queue.
Created Date: Date and time that the queue is created.
Updated Date: Date and time that the queue is updated.

Create a new Queue
On Queue List, click “+ Create“ button, it will show the pop-up to add a new queue.
On this pop-up, you need to provide the following information of the queue:
Name: Short name of the queue (required).
Owner: select a person who owns the queue.
Description: Description of the queue (optional).
Strategy: select the routing strategy (required)
Simultaneous: incoming calls will be routed to all queue-connected and Available-status agents simultaneously. All agents will see the incoming call ringing popup. If any agent picks up the call, the others will be hanged up.
Round Robin: incoming calls will be routed to the first queue-connected and Available-status agent that is currently idle. If that agent does not answer, the call will be hanged up after the configured “Phone call standard ring time” (see https://seamlessinsure.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SHC/pages/8296541/Telephony+Settings#General-Settings).
Wrap-Up Time (Minutes): number of minutes used for wrap-up task (required). This configuration tells the system how long the status “Wrap-Up” will be set automatically to an agent after a call is ended. During Wrap-Up time, calls will be not routed to an agent. After this period of time, agent status will be reset to “Available” and calls can be routed to an agent.
After you’re done with required information, you need to click Save to accept. The new queue will be created and displayed on the Queue List.
Now, you need to open the newly-create queue to add members in. See https://seamlessinsure.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SHC/pages/30146768/Phone+Queues#Edit-an-existing-Queue
