The message panel is where any messages for you are displayed. These messages are typically about call failures—either when we cannot contact the agent's phone, or we cannot connect to the number the agent is trying to call.

New messages appear at the top of the list.

To remove individual messages when the agent has read them, the agent can click the X button next to each message. To remove all the messages, the agent can click Delete All Messages.

The number of messages appears in the panel's tab for quick reference.

Queue tab

ContactPad queue tabImage Added

The queue tab displays the number of calls waiting in the queues the agent is serving, based on their groups. The number also appears in the

...

tab's tab for quick reference.

If agents are using skills based routing, the number includes calls that the agent can answer because the agent has all the mandatory skills, and calls that are in their personal queue (as well as sharing a service group). The number does not include calls that agents could answer only because a mandatory skill has expired, or because the personal queue has expired.

Messages

Success messages—when you have successfully changed a setting, for example—or error messages—when you try to make a call to an invalid number, for example—appear as toasts at the top of ContactPad.
