    Live (e.g. Phone)

    The capacity of a live interaction, such as a phone call.

    Default value is 100.

    The minimum capacity of live interactions is 51. This minimum ensures that an agent can never work on more than one live interaction at the same time.

The number and type of other interactions depends on the other interaction types' capacity settings.

    Default value is 33.

    Optimum Load Settings

    Default value is 65.


    Max Idle Time

    Maximum time that agents able to handle interactions can be idle. An idle agent is one that is available but not working on any interactions.
