Queue Management Improvements

Improvements are made to Queue Management to enhance the user experience for both agents and waiting customers. The improvements include:

  • Add a public waitlist to show customers the queue updates in real-time. After creating a queue, you can use the system generated waitlist link to display the list on a monitor.

  • Add a Desk option for location settings. A desk is a physical or digital station where an agent provides service for customers. If a location has multiple desks, agents need to select the desk before serving customers, so that customers can know where to proceed when being summoned.
