Privileges

Registered users of your Bright Pattern Contact Center solution are assigned privileges that can be used to control access to various contact center functions. Privileges are arranged in the same way as they appear on the Roles page of the Contact Center Administrator application. For general information about privileges and roles, see section Roles.

Privileges are organized into seven categories (i.e., groups):

  • Interaction Handling
  • Quality Management
  • Security and Administration
  • Service and Campaign Administration
  • Supervision
  • System Administration
  • BPO Client

Note: Some service configuration changes that affect agent behavior are not picked up dynamically by Agent Desktop. Thus, after making a change to privileges, we recommend that all affected agents re-login to Agent Desktop.

Interaction Handling group

Access full-screen Agent Desktop

The Access full-screen Agent Desktop privilege allows the user to enable full-screen Agent Desktop view within CRM applications.

Because CRM systems typically have their own email and case management capabilities, the full-screen mode normally would be used by supervisors only.

Delete contacts

The Delete contacts privilege allows the deletion of contacts. If enabled, users can delete individual contacts via the Agent Desktop. When a contact is deleted, its activity history is deleted too. Cases are not deleted automatically.

Edit contacts

The Edit contacts privilege provides write access to contacts. If enabled, users can create new contacts, and users can modify any fields in existing contacts (but not activity history).

Force pop-out phone window

The Force pop-out phone window privilege allows the user to open Agent Desktop in a pop-out window. For more information, see section Understanding Screen-Pop of the Agent Guide.

Enabling this privilege is generally not recommended if you plan to deliver activity forms and/or other web content to agents via screen pop.

Note that if the user has any privileges in the Supervision group (see below), the user will not be able to open Agent Desktop in a pop-out window even if the user has this privilege.

Handle automatically distributed interactions

The Handle automatically distributed interactions allows the user to receive calls from a service queue and preview records. This is the basic privilege that allows the user to perform typical call center agent work (i.e., provide services over the phone and participate in outbound campaigns).

The ability to handle customer chat or email interactions is controlled via separate privileges (see Handle email and cases and Handle service chat).

Handle email and cases

When enabled, the Handle email and cases privilege allows users to:

  • Edit cases
  • Create new cases manually
  • Mark cases as spam

Handle service chats

With the Handle service chats privilege, the user may handle chat interactions with customers. This includes chat interactions started by customers via SMS.

Note that the ability to initiate a chat with a customer via SMS is controlled by a separate privilege (see Initiate SMS conversation). Likewise, the ability to use internal chat is controlled by a separate privilege (see Send internal chats).

Initiate SMS conversation

The Initiate SMS conversation privilege allows the user to initiate chats with customers via SMS.

Listen to call recordings and view chat transcripts on assigned services

With this privilege granted, the user may review call recordings and chat transcripts of the services that the user is qualified to handle (i.e., has corresponding service skills).

Listening to own call recordings and view own chat transcripts

This privilege provides Agent Desktop users the capability, via activity history, to access recordings where the agent participated (at least partially). This privilege applies to Agent Desktop only.

Login to Agent Desktop

Login to Agent Desktop allows the user to log in to Agent Desktop application and perform basic back-office telephony functions. Any user who needs access to Agent Desktop must have this privilege. Note that this privilege alone is not sufficient for performing typical contact center agent work.

Note that any user who logs into Agent Desktop will be counted as a concurrent user for the duration of the login session. Your service provider may impose a limit on how many of your users may be logged on concurrently.

Make external calls

A user with the Make external calls privilege may make external calls and blind transfers to external destinations from the Agent Desktop application. If the user does not have this privilege, an attempt to make an external call or blind transfer will result in a text error message displayed on Agent Desktop.

Note that the absence of this privilege does not prevent users from making external calls using the dial pad of their hardphones.

Mask original email content

The Mask original email content privilege allows the user to mask fragments of original customer email text. For more information, see section How to Mask Sensitive Data of the Agent Guide.

Modify own identification data

The Modify own identification data privilege allows the user to be able to modify specific fields of the user profile. If the privilege is not present, the following fields are locked:

  • First Name
  • Last Name
  • Chat Nickname

See other agents/teams in directory

This privilege lets the user see all configured teams and team members in the Agent Desktop directory and view their current availability (presence). For more information, see section How to Use the Directory of the Agent Guide.

See other agents’ cases

See other agents’ cases allows the user to see cases handled by other agents. If the user does not have this privilege, the user will be able to see only cases that with which the user has worked. This privilege affects case search only. Absence of this privilege does not affect the user’s ability to receive emails related to existing cases that the user has not worked on.

Send internal chats

The Send internal chats privilege allows the user to initiate internal chat conversations.

Start recording of interactions

With this privilege, the user may start call recording.

Stop recording of interactions

Stop recording of interactions allows the user to stop call recording.

Transfer calls

The Transfer calls privilege allows the user to transfer customer interactions to consultation parties and host conferences (both via-consultation and single-step).

Absence of this privilege does not affect user’s ability to

  • make blind transfers of customer interactions
  • transfer or conference internal calls

Use Calendar

The Use Calendar privilege enables users to use the Agent Desktop calendar for scheduling.

Use Favorites tab

Use Favorites tab is an agent-level privilege that controls whether the user can see and set favorites from the Agent Desktop application. This privilege is an agent behavior control to prevent users from dialing destinations that they should not based on FCC/TCPA and organizational rules.

Use Recent Calls tab

The Use Recent Calls tab privilege lets the user restrict access to recent calls. This privilege uses TCPA manual dialing to limit which agents can access recent calls.

Use RightNow

Use RightNow allows the user to use Agent Desktop embedded into the Oracle Service Cloud application (formerly called RightNow). This privilege enables access to the Agent Desktop widget within Oracle Service Cloud.

For more information, see the Oracle Service Cloud Integration Guide.

Use ServiceNow

Use ServiceNow allows the user to use Agent Desktop embedded into the ServiceNow application. This privilege enables access to the Agent Desktop widget within ServiceNow.

For more information, see the ServiceNow Integration Guide.

Use Zendesk

With the Use Zendesk privilege, the user may use Agent Desktop embedded into the Zendesk application. This privilege enables access to the Agent Desktop widget within Zendesk. To enable full-screen Agent Desktop view within Zendesk application, the user must also have the Access full Agent Desktop privilege.

For more information, see the Zendesk Integration Guide.

Delete evals completed by themselves

Delete evals completed by themselves allows the user to delete quality management evaluations completed by himself.

Edit evaluation forms

Edit evaluation forms allows the user to edit quality management evaluation forms in the Evaluation Form Editor application. Note that if a form is assigned to a service or campaign, to edit it, one needs either the Manage all services and campaigns privilege or the Manage assigned services and campaigns privilege to edit that service.

Edit public interaction searches

Edit public interaction searches allows the user to edit the public searches seen in the Agent Desktop application, section Quality Management > Eval Home.

Evaluate agent interactions

Evaluate agent interactions allows the user to evaluate agent interactions in the Agent Desktop application, section Quality Management when feature Quality Management Pro is on. If feature Quality Management Pro is off this privilege allows the user to grade interactions while monitoring them in real-time via Agent Desktop while reviewing their recordings and transcripts via the Contact Center Administrator application.

Evaluate own interactions

Evaluate own interactions allows users to evaluate their own interactions and is assigned to agents by default; supervisors or evaluators are meant to confirm these evaluations. Note that these evaluations can be confirmed by a user's supervisor or a supervisor assigned to a user's team only.

Manage evaluations across teams

See evals of self

See evals of self allows the user to see quality management evaluations of herself as completed by other users.
