Time-off enhancements for workforce management
Administrators can now set time-off limits to manage the number of agents allowed to take time off on a particular date and time. Administrators can also create time-off plans to associate Time Off activity codes to time-off limits, and configure the system to auto-approve time-off requests that do not violate time-off limits. For more information, see Work with time-off limits, Work with time-off plans, and Agent time-off requests. This feature requires one of the following subscriptions: Genesys Cloud User 3, Genesys Cloud User 1 WEM Upgrade II, or Genesys Cloud User 2 WEM Upgrade I.
Ensemble model and Theta method for workforce management automatic best method forecasting
Administrators and contact center managers can now use the ensemble model and the Theta method when generating automatic best method forecasts. The ensemble model, a post processing activity, combines multiple forecasting models to create a single forecast. The Theta method uses the concept of modifying the local curvature of the time-series through a coefficient ‘Theta’ (the Greek letter θ) and directly applies it to the second differences of the data. These features increase the overall accuracy of the forecast and help to avoid situations where one model can overvalue a peak or valley. For more information, see Automatic Best Method forecast method overview. These feature require one of the following subscriptions: Genesys Cloud User 3, Genesys Cloud User 1 WEM Upgrade II, or Genesys Cloud User 2 WEM Upgrade I.
