    The Available Agents pane opens.

Warning
When you move an agent from one site to another site, the agent's historical schedules are still available to be viewed and reported. However, any Calendar items related to that agent will not be available when building future schedules for the new site. This is because items, such as Time-Off Types, Exception Types, Contracts, and Shifts, are configured separately for each site.
