It would be helpful to allow an Admin to log an absent user out from a queue if they forgot to log out.

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled Allow Admin to set a call queue member to be unavailable to take call queue calls.... We have a small Call Center environment.  We would like for an admin to be able to set a call queue member to be unavailable to take call queue calls if/when that call queue member leaves their desk and forgets to set that for themselves.

It's been 4 years and the developers have not been paying attention to Client needs? This is posted in Developers Forum. It is a "must have" feature.

This has been addressed directly to reps and dev. team. The advise was to post it here so then they can see how relevant and collective an issue could be in order to consider developing something.

How is this not available? I'm in the process of switching my entire company over from 8x8 and this is a feature that we used a lot  A number of times an agent has forgotten to log out of the queue and as an admin I've gone into the system and disabled them.  Please add this feature ASAP

We also have a small call center. For us it isn't really practical to pay for the Call Center package, when all we would really need is just one or two small features like this one. I really like the web interface, both on the admin side and the user side. So far it has met most of our needs and there isn't a whole lot more we could ask for.

I feel like this is something that could easily be implemented into the admin interface. Possible in a single update cycle. Maybe put it in the call queue menu, where you can easily see the members' availability, just add an edit status button. I don't know, I'm sure RC's devs could come up with something quickly and easily.

This is definitely functionality we need and seems like a most basic function for an Admin.  Our workaround has been to remove members from the queue to avoid having calls attempt to reach them, but that is very manual and cumbersome.  Ideally, we add this functionality right into the HUD and you can right click on a user name and log them in/out and/or set their status to DND, etc.,  This is truly something that would alleviate the overall administration of the users and streamline call flow.

We are a small US based company with 17 users and I agree that this kind of functionality should be standard for any ACD/PBX solution.  Considering even free PBX distros (FreePBX, PIAF just to name two) include that feature by default, I don't know why a paid service would remove access to it.

We also have a small call center and this feature is very helpful for Admins and Call Queue Managers.

Was there ever any answers to this question?  This function would also be helpful with our call centers.

Hi there, I'd also like to add this could be a very useful feature.  We had a user go on vacation and forget to turn themselves off in the call queue.  This feature would have been helpful if the call queue manager could have handled it instead of having to reset the users password and log in as them.

I'd also like to add this would be a very useful feature.  Hard to understand why this wouldn't be a basic function on the Call Center for a Manager or Super Admin and the request 1st came in 3 years ago.
