Monitoring a Chat Session (Supervisors Only)

If you are a supervisor, one of the most important ways that you can ensure quality is to monitor
your agents' chat sessions. You can enter a chat session and "view" the interaction between the
agent and the customer in real time. You can also have other supervisors join you in observing an
agent.
When you first enter the chat session, neither the agent nor the customer can see you. You can
allow both of them to see you by clicking the Visible option and "speaking" (sending text
messages). When you are visible, both the agent and the customer can also see you if you leave.
If you want to monitor a session without anyone knowing you are there, you can leave yourself
Invisible. This makes it possible for you to observe natural interactions for training purposes. It
also helps ensure that your agents perform well because they know that you may be monitoring
them at any time.
To monitor a chat session:

availability for voice, chat, and email to 0 in Avaya Agent.
Tip: If you find that one of your chat customers needs more attention, you can
transfer that contact to another agent by clicking the Transfer button.
Tip: You can double-click any currently active contact in the Chat task list to have
the Web Agent window display that chat session.If you are handling multiple
contacts simultaneously, the logo in the Web Agent window may change when you
select a different contact from the Chat task list. This can help you distinguish
between different customers quickly. (If you double-click an inactive contact, a new
session begins.)
Tip: You can use the Shared Browsing features with each chat contact. Use the
Internet Explorer icons in the Windows Task Bar to switch between the browsers.

Tip: If you prefer to monitor while you handle a chat session of your own or reply to
an email, you can do this. Use the Chat Management and Email Management buttons
