Agent

Avaya Oceana® provides the defer email feature for agents. With this feature, an agent can defer sending emails for a specified number of hours.

Supervisor

Avaya Oceana® provides the defer email feature for supervisors. With this feature, a supervisor can manage and defer sending emails if the agent is unavailable.

A supervisor can:

  • Take ownership of the deferred email, complete the email, and send it to the customer.

  • View the list of emails deferred by the agents in the team.

  • Transfer the deferred email to another service.

Avaya Analytics™ reports on the count of deferred emails in both real-time and historical reports.
