When you create a site or select an existing one, the properties for that site are displayed in the Site Properties pane. At the top of this pane, you can view additional configuration settings for the site, by selecting Teams or Agents.

The fields in the Properties pane are:

• Name—Enter a name for a new site or edit the existing one. The name must be unique in the WFM environment.
• Associated Switch—A read-only field that shows the switch associated with the site.
• Maximum Number of Seats—The maximum number of seats in the center. This places a limit on the number of agents that WFM can schedule at any given time.
  Tip

  Some combinations of activity sets and task sequences might conflict with this constraint. In cases of conflict, Scheduler gives priority to the activity set.
• Time Zone—The default time zone. To change it, select the desired time zone from the drop-down list.
• Business Unit—The business unit, with which the site is associated.
• Alarm Threshold—The number of minutes before or after a Schedule State Group is scheduled to occur before an agent is considered severely non-adherent. Can be set to any integer between 0-1440 (24 hours). The default value is 5 minutes.
• Allow auto-approval of schedule trades—Select this check box to enable auto-approval of this trade type. Clear it to require manual approval of all agent schedule trades.
• Allow Agents to create Shared Transport—Select this check box to enable agents on this site to create and modify shared transport groups.
• Paid Breaks are mandatory—If this check box is selected, then paid breaks are mandatory during scheduling. By default, the check box is cleared.
• Suppress Break-related warnings while scheduling—If this check box is selected, then break-related warnings are suppressed during scheduling. By default, the check box is cleared.

The following two check boxes exist while you are creating a new site. After the site is saved these check boxes are not longer visible:

• Generate default Schedule State Groups and Exception Types—Select this check box to enable WFM to create default schedule state groups and exception types.
• Associate existing exceptions with site—Select this check box to enable WFM to verify that none of the newly created exception types for the site's BU have the same name as an existing exception type. If duplications exist, WFM adds a new site to its associated sites. If no duplications exist, a new exception type is created.
