Managing Groups
What is a WinFlex Web Group?
In WinFlex Web a Group is used to share work like Cases
and Agents. Using Groups can save you time by entering Agent information one time
and sharing with the Group. In a call center or office, sharing cases within a Group
allows you to answer anyone's calls about cases.
Who should use a Group?
WinFlex Web users who have a need to share Cases and/or
Agents should create a Group and add the cases and agents that are needed.
What else is helpful when using Groups?
Using a naming convention for cases that allows other people
to find your work is recommended. You may want to use the Client's first and last
name in the case name to help you locate a case in a list.
Ex: Smith Robert.wfc
or Robert Smith.wfc
