    • (D) Inactive - The Agent Status Bar is red.

      • Multiple inactive status options may be listed and are customized by your management team (Ex: Lunch, Break, Meeting).

      • Selecting any of these options will keep you signed in as an Agent but make you unavailable to accept inbound calls.

      • A status that may be assigned to you is No Mic. This happens only when you are connected via computer. Before accepting or placing your first outbound call, the system will have asked to use your headset's microphone which it will remember for your entire session. You may have selected Block instead of Allow or your headset might not be connected. To fix this, first confirm your headset is connected to your computer and then allow access your microphone by going into Chrome's settings.

    Offline Status (disconnecting as an Agent)

    • (F) Offline - It's very important that you change your status to Offline at the end of your shift. This disconnects you as an active agent and ensures callers won't hold unnecessarily if there are no available agents.
