Application Function Bar
The Application Function Bar is located on the left side of the screen and is the main access point to all parts of the application. Depending on how your system is configured and on your security privileges, the Application Function Bar may contain any or all the following options.
Home
This is the Home Page for Emplifi Agent, where all your configured widgets display. For more information on this page, see Emplifi Agent Home Page. For more information on widgets, see Home Page Widgets Administration.
Cases (x)
This tab expands to display all the cases that are currently open by the signed-in user. For more information on cases, see Case Basics.
Work Items
The Work Items menu allows an agent view the following pages:
Open Cases
Open Issues
Pending Actions (Case)
Queue Details
Designated Favorites, if applicable.
For more information on the options in the Work Items menu, see Work Items.
Resources
The Resources page is similar to a bulletin board. It is a way for supervisors to post announcements, tips, suggestions, reminders, etc. so that everyone using the system can see them. Resource posts will appear to agents on the Additional Resources widget. For more information, see Home Page Widgets Administration.
News Feed
News Feed is a way for agents to communicate with each other within the Emplifi Agent system. Supervisors can also post quick questions or updates that everyone using the system will be able to see on the Home Page.
The News Feed page does not show up for everyone; rather, the User Posts widget shows the latest updates to the News Feed. For more information, see Home Page Editor. Agents that have permission will be able to view the News Feed page to see earlier posts than what the widget shows.
Administrators can use the Delete button to get rid of irrelevant or pointless posts from the feed. Administrator permissions are required to view this button.
Permissions are set up in Administration > User and Security Setup > Security Roles. In the UserPost and UserPostAdmin rows, select or clear the check boxes to assign the access level for that security role. All users assigned to that security role immediately get that access level. See Security Roles for a detailed description of each box in the row.
