Ability to Prevent Agents from Rejecting Interactions

We have improved the ability in 8x8 Configuration Manager to allow or prevent agents from rejecting interactions. You can set up this ability for a tenant, an agent group, or individual agents. By default, this option is enabled allowing agents to reject interactions. When disabled, the Reject button in 8x8 Agent Console is disabled preventing agents from rejecting the interactions they are offered. The Reject button in 8x8 Agent Console appears when an interaction is offered to the agent.

To disable the Reject button for the entire tenant:

1. From the Configuration Menu, open Home.
2. Go to the Profile tab.
3. Clear the Allow Agents to Reject Interactions checkbox. It now prevents agents from rejecting interactions at the tenant level.
4. Click Save.
   Once this option is removed at the tenant level, it is not visible at agent groups or agent level.
   

To disable the Reject button for agents group:

1. From the Configuration Menu, open Agent Groups.
2. Go to the General tab.
3. Clear the Allow Agents to Reject Interactions checkbox. This option prevents agents from rejecting interactions at the group level.
4. Click Save.
   Once this option is removed at the agent group level, it is not visible at the agent level.
   

To disable the Reject button for individual agents:

1. From the Configuration Menu, open Agent Groups.
2. Go to the General tab.
3. Clear the Allow Agents to Reject Interactions checkbox. This option prevents an agent from rejecting interactions at the agent level.
4. Click Save.
