User Interface Overview

Supervisors logging in to the Agent Desktop application will notice some key differences between Agent Desktop for agents and Agent Desktop for supervisors. In Supervisor mode, the Agent Desktop menu provides the Supervision Supervision-Icon-AD-50.png icon, which, when clicked, updates the Context Information Area with real-time metrics views for agents of a selected team and services provided by that team.


Agent Desktop interface in Supervisor mode


Refer to Bright Pattern Contact Center Agent Guide for general information about the elements of the Agent Desktop application screen.

Note the following differences specific to the use of Agent Desktop in Supervisor mode:

  • In addition to your active interactions, the Active Conversations List will display the teams that you are assigned to supervise. When you select a team, real-time metrics for the members of this team as well as the services assigned to this team will appear in the Context Information Area.
  • As mentioned above, in Supervisor Mode, the Context Information Area will show Real-Time Metrics related to your teams, services, and campaigns. For more information, see topics related to real-time metrics viewing and campaign operation. This also means that unlike agents, you cannot run your Agent Desktop application in the minimized view.
  • The Services Dashboard provides workforce management (WFM) insights for call centers by examining already available historical data. In order to view this dashboard, supervisors must have the "View Demand vs. Resources Dashboard privilege enabled in the tenant. Speak to your Contact Center administrator in order to be granted this privilege. Supervisors using this section can evaluate a supervisor's planning quality to provide call centers a demand-vs-resources overview. This allows the identification of critical issues such as overstaffing and understaffing. Note that supervisors with this privilege are not restricted to only their own team's data.
  • In addition to the regular interaction-handling controls, the Contact Info Panel provides controls for active agent management. For more information, see topics related to active agent management.
