The purpose of this guide is to explain how system administrators can edit existing call queues. A call queue is simply a group of Agents that are grouped together for a common purpose such as sales or service focused or grouped by what language they speak. Agents specializing in these different areas can be assigned to specific queues so when calls get presented to this group of Agents, they are better equipped to help the caller.
