This use case describes the process to deactivate a single channel, as opposed to the Deactivate All Channels use case which is for all channels. Some platforms allow the Agent to deactivate all or some channels while remaining logged into the platform.

Basic Flow

This is the default process of an Agent deactivating an interaction channel.

Preconditions

  • The Agent has logged into the platform

  • The Agent has one or more channels in the active state

Steps

  1. The agent clicks the Deactivate Channel button located at the top of the channel display screen

  2. MediaBar sends the channelgroup.request.deactivate request including any applicable channel options. See the Client Connectivity documentation for details about the request and its contents

  3. Decision 1: HIS checks to see if the Agent has any ongoing interactions on the channel

    1. If an interaction is found, this flow ends and EF 1 - Ongoing Interaction is executed

  4. Decision 2: HIS checks to see if the Agent is in the Ready state for the channel

    1. If the agent is Ready, this flow pauses and the server portion of Go Not Ready is executed

      1. If an error occurs during Go Not Ready, this flow ends and EF 2 - Not Ready Failure is executed

  5. HIS deactivates the channel and the state of the channel is updated and generates the appropriate events

Post Conditions

  • The channel is in the inactive state

  • The Deactivate All button is hidden, if no other channel remains active

  • The Activate All button is displayed and enabled

  • The Deactivate button for this channel is hidden
