Agents

Agents (also known as queue members) can login into the Queues by either dialing a Feature Code or via web Agent Control Panel where they can log in with the agent id and "Web Password".

The following sample Feature Codes are available:

  • 611 - Login into a Queue(s) as an Agent.
  • 612 - Pause to stop receiving calls from Queue(s).
  • 613 - Unpause to resume receiving calls from Queue(s).
  • 614 - Log out.

These Feature Codes are just samples, and can be changed as needed.
