Business Locations

Business Locations

Business locations are a way to group agents logically; this could be by office, contact centre, or even as a virtual group that works from home. When agents are created they are placed into a business location group which allows customisable control over some platform capabilities. Elements of control include: partners that can be serviced, IP address ranges for deny/allow lists, roles, and Queue Groups. You can also add contact details for issue escalation.

To access business locations, go to Contact Center Management > Business locations:

  2. Enter a name for the new location; this can be anything.
  3. Select a Contact Centre Vendor to assign to this location. This will set access permissions so that outsource partners cannot access each other's agents.
  4. Optionally, add the IPv4 address ranges that your agents will be logging in from to add an additional layer of security. A maximum of 10 ranges is permitted and they must be entered in this format: 000.000.000.000/00.
  5. Select the Roles you want available to the location.
