Gadget
The Gadget enables you to manage your status and create new interactions.
The Gadget is an alternate view to the Main Window. It provides only basic functionality. It does not enable you to manage your contacts.
The Gadget enables you to:
- Manage your Ready status.
- View contacts and internal targets, manage your favorites, and launch a new interaction.
- Manage your settings and open different views.
- Accept or reject inbound interactions by using the Interaction Preview.
- Start an Instant Messaging (IM) session with an internal target.
Manage Your Status
Click the Ready Status icon to open your status menu.
Place the mouse pointer over the Ready Status icon to view your status summary.
The status summary includes your login name, Place, channels, and channel status, as well as your Ready state.
Managing Multiple Channels
If you are logged in to more than one channel, detailed status for each channel is available in the My Channels view.
Not Ready Status
When you are handling an interaction, the system interrupts the display of the amount of time that you are in the current state.
If, while you are handling an interaction for a given channel, you set your status to either Not Ready, Not Ready - <reason>, or After Call Work (ACW) the system does not display the amount of time that you are in that state until the interaction is complete. This feature enables your break or ACW time to be displayed according to recorded statistics.
Inactivity Timeout
Inactivity Timeout is a security feature that locks the Interaction Workspace windows on your workstation, if you do not use your mouse or keyboard for a period of time that is defined by your administrator. You must authenticate to reactivate Interaction Workspace.
Manage Your Contacts and Launch a New Interaction
You can view your contacts and internal targets, and Launch a New Interaction from the Gadget view. The Gadget view contains the Team Communicator Quick Search field. Enter an internal target or a contact name or phone number in the universal lookup field.
