When a call enters a queue, it is automatically answered.

Name is the name of the queue Number, optional, can be used to enter the queue directly, usually it is used to transfer a caller to a queue Always Record permits to always record the calls entering the queue Play to the caller allows to choose what to play to the caller waiting in the queue. You can play the defined Music On Hold, Continuous ringing or Music On Hold until the agent phone is ringing and then ringing Queue timeout is the amount of time the caller can be hold in the queue before being sent to the destination specified in the “On timeout” Service level are the maximal number of seconds a caller is supposed to stay in the queue. This is just for statistical analysis to compute the SLA for the queue Max Queue Length are the maximal number of callers to be held in the queue Weight assigns to the queues a 'weight'. Weight of the queue when compared to other queues, higher weights get first shot at available channels when the same agent is included in more than one queue, it works only in not agent ordered queues, like ring all strategy. Auto fill' when enabled, the queue will push multiple calls through at same time until there are no more waiting callers or no more available agents On timeout is the destination to send the callers when the "Queue timeout" is expired Queue server permits to define on which server to hold the queue. If the selected server is not available, after few seconds the queue will be assigned to a different server

Agents

Strategy can be one of the following:

  • Ring All – All agents are rang at the same time
  • Round Robin – agents are rang, one at the time, in a round robin way
  • Random – agents are rang in a random order
  • Least Recent – The least recent agent is rang
  • Fewest Calls – The agent with the fewest calls is rang
  • Linear – agents are rang in the order specified. Due to some asterisk limitation, it is not possible to change the Strategy of a already defined Queue to “Linear”. The queue needs to be destroyed and recreated.
