For Call Center Agent and Supervisor scopes, the Call Center feature will appear as a menu selection on the left-hand side of their web phone. When selected, you will be presented with the My Queues and My Stats tabs.

Change Your Agent Status

The general status displayed on the upper right will also control the status of the use for all the queues in which they are assigned.

These options are the same as the ones from the Call Center tab of the Stratus Web Portal. Selecting one of these options will change the state of the user and their devices in All Queues in which they are assigned.

• Set the status to Online/Offline to be available/unavailable to take inbound calls for all queues.

Single-Call Mode

• Set the status to Single Call Mode to be available to take one inbound call. Alter finishing up the call, the status will change to Offline.

Lunch, Break, Meeting, Other, and Web

• These are categorical statuses that can be used to let call center supervisors know why a call center agent is not available to take a call. Call Center Supervisors and Office Managers will be able to view current statuses of Call Center Agents in the Stratus Web Portal or on the Stratus Wallboard.
• These categories will all put the Agent as unavailable for inbound calls. 
  • Agents are still able to receive calls that do not originate from a call queue and can place outbound calls.

Offline

• Set the status to Offline to be unavailable for calls originating from call queues. 
  • It is best practice for Call Center Agents to set themselves to Offline when they have finished their shift for the day.

My Queues

This displays the queues you are logged into, the number of agents assigned, and the number of people waiting. From here, you can log in and out of specific queues.

Clicking on the queue will display a card with info:

Log Out of an Individual Queue

In the Call Center section of the StratusWEB PHONE, hover over the queue you want to toggle availability.

My Call Stats

The My Stats tab of the Call Center section displays user stats using charts.

If you're only interested in specific charts, these can be added individually as cards to your personal desktop area.

Dispositions

Call dispositions are now available in the Stratus Web Phone as well, allowing agents to record notes on calls via a popup when the call is complete.

Troubleshooting

Allow StratusWEB PHONE to Access Microphone

Select Devices To Use as Microphone and Speakers

If you are using multiple audio devices with your PC, you can configure StratusWEB PHONE to use different connected devices. 

1. Click the Profile icon.
   
2. In the Profile tray, select Settings.
   
3. Use the Microphone, Audio Output, and Ringer Output options to select the audio devices you would prefer to use. 
   
   

   Quick Tip: Clicking these options is a great way to check that a certain audio device is connected. 

   

   If you do not see a certain audio device showing as an option, ensure that the device is connected to your PC. 

    
4. Place a test call to yourself to confirm that your audio is being played through the correct devices.

Web Phone not Registering or Unable to Place a Call

Make sure you have allowed your browser access to your speaker and microphone. If there is no speaker/microphone source, or it has been blocked, the web phone will be unable to function.

The User Interface Looks Different

The web phone can be used in full screen mode, or in a partial window. Functionally it works the same, but the User Interface will look slightly different depending on the size of the window.

Desk Phone and Web Phone are not Ringing Simultaneously

Check to make sure the user’s answering rules are set to “Simultaneous Ring”. Make sure that either the User is in the call queue, or that the web phone (ex 101wp) is set as a device in the call queue.
