Agent state transitions and forced agent logout with Avaya Experience Platform (On-Prem + Connect)

Last Updated : Jul 29, 2024 |

With Avaya Experience Platform™ (On-Prem + Connect), supervisors can change an agent state from Ready to Not Ready to prevent agents from receiving further interactions. A supervisor can also forcibly log out an agent from Avaya Workspaces and end the session.

If the supervisor changes the state of an agent who is active on an interaction, the agent is moved to a pending state. When the agent closes the interaction, the agent moves to the state the supervisor sets.

When a supervisor logs out an agent with active interactions, the agent state changes to Logout Pending. The agent does not receive any active interactions during this state.

The following table provides different agent state transitions and the workflow for changing the agent state from the supervisor dashboard:
