Pipeline Update 168

Published 14 January 2025*

Agent

  • For agents using the Agent WebRTC Extension, the pop-up message prompting agents to enable microphone access appeared only when they first logged in to Agent and when Agent refreshed. In version 1.0.13 of the Agent WebRTC Extension, the pop-up message appears each time the agent is unable to accept a call because they haven't enabled microphone access. This makes the issue clear for agents to identify and resolve. To see this update, download the most current version of the Agent WebRTC Extension from the Chrome web store Box with arrow indicating navigation to external site.. (AW-31219)

  • Changes to the WebRTC gateway in ACD Users did not apply immediately. This has been fixed in version 1.0.13 of the Agent WebRTC Extension. To see this update, download the most current version of the Agent WebRTC Extension from the Chrome web store Box with arrow indicating navigation to external site.. (AW-31694)

Features and fixes in this update will begin deploying in early January.

Features for Agent, Agent Embedded, Agent for Microsoft Teams, and Agent Integrated have been released with this update.

ACD

  • Disposition classifications for negative DNC interactions were erroneously prepended with 'Preview Reject -' for standard dispositions. This has been removed. (AAD-29839)

ACD Routing

  • In certain systems, agents who were configured to handle one contact at a time sometimes received a call when they were already handling a live chat. (VOL-5303)

  • In systems where the routing script contained two ReqAgent actions, the GetQueue action sometimes returned the wrong value for longest queue. (VOL-5350)

  • In certain systems, an event caused routing to pause temporarily. (ORC-38338)

  • In certain systems, an event led to routing delays. (ORC-38025, ORC-38118)

  • In certain systems, digital contacts were sometimes delayed in routing to available agents. (DE-121177)

  • Changing the assignment of a digital interaction from one agent to another failed. (AOR-6474)

  • When auto accept was enabled, the Accept and Reject buttons were available when agents had Agent in a smaller view. (AW-32099)

  • In chat skills where a disposition was required, the disposition window was disabled when the chat interaction ended. (AW-32017)

  • Agents were able to transfer real-time work items to persistent work item skills, and vice versa, but the transfers failed. Agents are no longer able to transfer to work item skills of an incompatible type. (AW-31891)

  • When an agent selected a contact in the contact history report, the previously selected contact was still shown. The agent had to click the contact again to see the right information. (AW-32531)

  • Some externally transferred call recordings showed a duration of five hours. (ORC-33062)

Reporting

  • In some systems, scheduled reports failed to run. (RPT-44617)

  • The CDR Plus Disposition data download report showed data outside the specified time period for Digital Experience email contacts. (DE-118978)

  • An event led to real-time dashboards either not loading or not reflecting accurate data. (ORC-37963)

Studio

  • In certain systems, the execution time for GetQueue was longer than it should have been. (ORC-38124)

  • When the Unlink action was triggered in a call transfer scenario, the agent's leg didn't disconnect from the call. Instead, the second call connected to the transferred call, merging the two. (VOL-5472)

Salesforce Agent

Fixed issues for the current Salesforce Agent release and the two previous releases are available on the Salesforce Agent Release History page.

Known Issues

These are the current unresolved issues in CXone Mpower products. If a known issue has a workaround, that information is included.

ACD

  • The Automated Chat Messaging Timeout setting in the default skill assigned to the point of contact overrides the setting in any skill the contact is transferred to. You cannot use scripting to override or maintain certain timeout settings. So, be careful to avoid this issue when configuring scripts, skills, and points of contact.

Agent applications

  • In a Presence Sync system, agents are sometimes unexpectedly changed from the Available state to an unavailable state.

Agent for SCV

  • When agents log in to Agent for SCV using the Integrated Softphone, the dialpad doesn't appear. Agents must refresh the browser to load it.

AppLink

  • AppLink does not support multiple Engage systems that are connected to a single CXone Mpower tenant.

  • Real-time capabilities, such as Real-Time Monitoring and Real-Time Authentication, are not supported in CXone Mpower for AppLink users.

  • All agents imported from Engage must have an email address listed in Engage. Agents without an email address are not created in CXone Mpower and their calls are not imported. This does not include calls for basic recording and unmapped users.

  • Teams in Engage are not automatically synchronized with CXone Mpower but can be uploaded via the Bulk Employee Upload tool.

  • AppLink can only import up to 50 business data fields.

  • Engage comments, annotations, and categorizations are not supported in CXone Mpower.

  • CXone Mpower Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) by skill is not supported in CXone Mpower for AppLink users.

  • AppLink only uploads H.264 screen recordings to CXone Mpower.

  • When playing back imported recordings in CXone Mpower, the CXone Mpower player does not display pause and resume indications for the recording.

  • A Quality Plan by skill cannot be generated in CXone Mpower for AppLink users. You can create a Quality Plan according to a business data field if the skill is populated into that field.

  • Users in Engage who are defined with multiple agents are imported into CXone Mpower as a single agent.

Digital Experience

  • Chrome doesn't require third-party cookies by default. If you use Chrome as your browser while using Digital Experience with MAX, enable third-party cookies to avoid issues.

Feedback Management

  • The Full Survey Detail page may take a while to load survey records that are over a year old. If you need to look at old survey records often, use the Response Details chart instead. It loads data quickly from the data warehouse. (VOC-41878)

Interactions Hub

For Data Policies:

  • In relation to the Unmasked Sensitive Information widget, data for two users from the same tenant, but who are in two different time zones, can be viewed in search results. However, actions can only be taken based on one time zone at a time. This is because all users view the same data, irrespective of their time zone.

  • A Deletion policy will support up to 500,000 interactions. Litigation Hold and Litigation Release policies will support up to 10,000 interactions.

  • For AppLink customers, no data will be shown in the Unmasked Sensitive Information widget.

  • When applying a policy, recordings moved or copied to the SEA are not affected. See Secure External Access.

Quality Management

  • Conference segments cannot be transcribed/categorized. For example, if an agent adds a participant to a call between them and a customer, the segment up until that point will be transcribed and categorized, but from that point and on, it will not be transcribed or categorized. This is applicable for users with QM Advanced license.

Performance Management Next Generation

  • In Wallboards the leaderboard slide displays a white circle instead of the user initials from the profile.

  • You cannot select attributes in the leaderboard and racing slides in Wallboards.

Recording and Playback

  • In each of the following search filters, the number of searchable values should not exceed 400. If there are more than 400 values, some values will not appear in the filter.

    • Hashtag

    • Team name

    • Group name

    • Skill name

    • Disposition

    Note that the text search works for any number of values.

  • Skills and teams are assigned only to segments with an assigned leading agent. Interactions with no assigned agent include IVR, off-platform, and some outbound dialer interactions. For these interactions, skills and teams are not assigned and interaction-segment-based views are not applicable.

  • When the date range of a search starts before 1 July 2022, sorting by any of the behavioral metrics columns generates an error message. Subsequent filtering also generates the error message. To resolve the issue, close the message and sort on a column that is not behavioral metrics before continuing to filter. To avoid the issue, sort on any column except for behavioral metrics or set the date range for searches after 1 July 2022.

  • For the following languages, be sure to search for interactions using exact text enclosed in quotation marks:

    • Chinese Simplified

    • Chinese Traditional

    • Japanese

    • Korean

  • When the duration of a complex digital channel interaction extends beyond 5 hours, the related segments icon does not appear by the related segments in that call. You can play back each interaction in the call separately, however, sometimes you cannot play back the entire interaction.

  • When a call is transferred to another agent who does not answer, the recorded segment is marked as a complex call. The segment appears in the search results with the Related Segments icon even though there are no related segments.

  • If there is a failover on the ACD side during a call, the recording will be available for search and playback after 5 hours from the call start. In a complex scenario with multiple segments, the call might not be recorded or it might be recorded with unexpected behavior, for example, without masking.

  • Chat and email:

    • For emails that were transferred or reskilled, the transferred/reskilled segment itself does not include the email transcript. Other segments do include the email transcript.

    • Playback does not support attachments.

    • The first segment in a chat only allows playback of the one segment. The full contact can be played back from subsequent chat segments.

  • For calls transferred to external phone numbers:

    • When transferring from the IVR, the external interaction is not recorded.

    • When using a cold transfer, the external interaction is recorded, even if there is a Do Not Record policy with the external participant’s phone number.

    • For a conference call, playing back a contact displays the name of external participant as Customer. In all other cases, the name of external participant appears as Other Participant.

    • The interaction between the customer and external participant is recorded in mono mode.

    • The segments transferred to external phone numbers do not display the agent names in the search grid because agents are not involved in such segments.

  • Recording provides some limited support of silence suppression during the call when the carrier uses silence suppression to lower the bandwidth due to external issues and for a few seconds. We recommend that you work with NICE NetOps and the carrier to ensure silence suppression is disabled on the carrier side since it may reduce the quality of the call recording.

  • Screen recording policies allow you to define a period of recording the screen after the call has ended (after call work). After call work recording might exceed the defined time by up to two seconds.

  • If an agent logs in to MAX or Salesforce Agent on more than one computer at a time, when screen is recorded, it's recorded for all computers. For those recordings, the screen recording won't play back correctly.

  • For calls that include more than one screen recording, such as conference calls, consultations, and internal calls, the player only displays the screens of one of the agents during playback. The player indicates which agent's screens are being played back.

  • If a call is transferred from one agent to another, the screens of both agents are played back in the resolution of the first agent’s screen.

  • Screen recording is initiated up to 25 seconds after the agent logs in. Screen recording might not work properly during these 25 seconds. This issue only affects tenants configured with 100% screen recording.

  • Sometimes a black screen appears during playback:

    • There was a screen recording delay (milliseconds) due to latency. In this case, a black screen may appear at the beginning of the call to synchronize playback of the screen and voice recordings.

    • The agent ran an app with admin permissions during the call recording. In this case, screen recording stops when the UAC message appears.

      Screen recording restarts when the pop-up is closed. During playback, a black screen appears while screen recording was stopped.

  • The alternatives are to install the application with non-administrative rights or to use a persistent environment.

  • If you download calls from Secure External Access that were recorded before 10 December 2018, you won’t be able to play them back.

    To save or play back a specific call (even if it was recorded before 10 December 2018), you can go to Search and find the call. Then, from the Player, you can play it back or download it.

Reporting

  • When an agent initiates an outbound email, the Digital Messages report does not include it in the Agent Messages count. The case IDs for outbound emails display as null in the Agent Messages column of the report.

  • Errors occur in the Activity Audit report and Change Audit report when the Time Period is set to more than the Last 7 days.

  • The Time Utilization report displays data for inactive agents. This happens when agents are deactivated, but their schedules have already been generated. The report will continue to display the agent's data for the duration of the generated schedule.

    For example, an agent's schedule was made in May 2023 and lasts until September 2023. The agent was deactivated in June 2023. Even though the agent is deactivated, their data still appears in the report until September 2023.

Salesforce Agent

  • In Salesforce Agent Classic, email drafts can be deleted after switching from chat to email.

Supervisor

Supervisors may encounter an error when attempting to play recordings for customer contacts that have been transferred multiple times. This is a current limitation in the Supervisor app, where recordings of such contacts cannot be played in-app.

When this issue occurs, recordings are still accessible and playable in the Interactions Hub. Supervisors encountering this error are advised to use the Interactions Hub as an alternative playback source.

Workforce Management

General CXone Mpower WFM
  • For CXone Mpower ACD users: WFM shows all actual agent states sent by CXone Mpower ACD. CXone Mpower ACD sends data differently to CXone Mpower applications. This means that the data displayed in one app can be inconsistent with the ACD data in other apps.

    For example, dialer states are sent to Supervisor and Legacy Dashboard but not to WFM. In these cases, they will either be displayed as available or won't be reported at all in WFM.

  • If you activated WFM for the first time after November 2022 and have the CXone Mpower ACD, the historical data may not be readily available to WFM. Contact Support to import the historical data from CXone Mpower ACD to WFM.

  • Data of inactive agents for whom schedules were already published is retained. As a result, these inactive agents' data is getting populated in the adherence reports.

    This can be avoided. Deselect the inactive agents in the Filter Data while running the reports. This will exclude the inactive agents' data from getting populated in the adherence reports.

  • The inactive agents and their data are shown in the time utilization report. This occurs when agents' schedules for future dates are generated prior to deactivation. The agent's data will continue to be displayed in the report for the duration of the generated schedule.

    For example, Agent A's schedule was made on 1 May 23 and lasts until 30 September 23. Agent A was deactivated on 24 June 23. Even though Agent A is deactivated, the data will remain on the report until 30 September 23.

  • The Payroll API exports existing future schedules of inactive agents, even when they are not visible in the Schedule Manager page.

Intraday
  • If incorrect ACD data was received or no data was received at all, Intraday can still get updated with the correct data when the issue is solved. However, Intraday can only get data from the last 24 hours.

  • Intraday widgets are no longer available in Legacy Dashboard app.

  • When exporting, the file may be missing data if you select more than 50 skills. To avoid missing data, try lowering the date range or exporting twice with a shorter date range for each export. Let's say you want to export 50 skills over 14 days. Try exporting twice, each export for 7 days.

  • After creating a new WFM skill, it would take up to one hour until data from it can be properly ingested to intraday.

RTA
  • Real-Time Adherence (RTA) displays agent adherence in real time. Because the page refreshes often, it’s recommended to have a focused view. This means that you limit the number of displayed agents to under 250. You can lower the number of displayed agents by using filters.

  • Some mapped activities may be displayed as unmapped in Real-Time Adherence. If this happens, try to enter the mapped activity in the ACD mapping page and click Submit.

Scheduling
  • In Schedule Manager, the net staffing values are not getting updated upon applying the Groups and Activity Codes filters.

  • The new schedule manager web app might take a bit longer to load agent schedules. This delay helps the data load in the background, using less memory and stopping the web page from crashing. A better fix is planned for future updates.
