ForecastTimestep

Default Value: 15
Valid Values: 15, 30, 60
Changes Take Effect: Immediately
Dependencies: None

Specifies the step (in minutes) used in the Predictive algorithm. For example, if the step is 60, then all values (that is, four values, each representing a 15-minute timestep) in the 60-minute interval will be filled with the same predicted value.

This step is usually matched with historical data used in the Prediction timestep.

Use values (in minutes):

  • 15, 30, 60 for Expert Average Engine
  • 15, 60 for Universal Modeling Engine

MaxScenarioCacheSize

Default Value: No default value
Valid Values: Any positive integer.
Changes Take Effect: Immediately
Dependencies: None

Specifies the maximum size (in megabytes [MB]) of the Forecast Scenario cache.

Setting this value to null means the size is unlimited.

ServiceLevelMethod

Default Value: 0
Valid Values: 0, 1
Changes Take Effect:
Dependencies: None
Introduced: 8.5.207

Specifies whether Service Level should be calculated from the number of interactions distributed or from the number of interactions offered, taking into account abandoned interactions.

The default value 0 indicates that Service Level is calculated, based on the number of interactions distributed. To include abandoned interactions, set the value to 1.

Tip
This option is not included in the template by default. You must create it yourself.

Create this option if you want to include abandoned interactions (value set to 1). If you do not create this option, WFM functions as though you have set the value to 0.

For instructions about how to create new options, see Creating New Configuration Sections and Options.

SplitBySchedule

Default Value: off
Valid Values: on, off
Changes Take Effect: Immediately
Dependencies: None
Introduced: 8.5.003.28

Specifies whether the volume-splitting algorithm determines agent availability for activities, based on the Master Schedule.

When this option value is set to on (enabled), the volume-splitting algorithm considers the existing Master Schedule to establish when, and on what activities agents are available. On days when there is no Master Schedule, the splitting algorithm considers agent availability for activities in the usual way.

Tip
This option is not included in the template by default. You must create it yourself. For instructions about how to create new options, see Creating New Configuration Sections and Options.
