Comm100 supports changing agents’ time zone so that the chats and tickets can always reflect the individual agent’s time zone.
For an agent, the time zone setting affects all the message timestamp in chats or tickets, including the following occasions:
- On the Agent Console, the message sent and received shows the individual agent’s time zone, regardless of the visitor’s time zone.Note: To view a visitor’s time zone, you can go to Visitors > Info tab on the Agent Console.
- On the Control Panel, the chat requests, offline messages, and chat transcripts in both History and Reporting show the agent’s time zone.
To change an agent’s time zone, you need to have the required permission. By default, the site administrator has permission to manage all agents’ information, and agents have permission to change their own time zone through My Profile.
This article introduces the steps to change agents’ time zone both by managing agents’ information and by editing My Profile.
