The difference between the Regular and Office Agent license types are that the Office agents will automatically resume a Ready state after the “No Answer” suspend time if the agent went into a No Answer state after a missed call. Regular Agents will remain in the No Answer state until manually changed back to a Ready or Break state. With the Regular Agent license, Supervisors will be able to track and see in real time which agents are missing calls and for how long they remain in that state.
