Session Idle Timeout

Session idle timeout is how long your User Console will remain active before it times out from a lack of use

It is best practice to set this to remain active during your working day/shift. E.g. 7 - 10 hours

Click in the dropdown to select your chosen time out period

Note: If you are logged in to your softphone and your session times out, you will look available to your colleagues but the softphone calls will not connect


Show logged out agents

Showing logged out agents will let you view logged out users in your directory

Their name will display in dark grey when they are logged out
