摘要:
A method and system for handling real-time indications of resource scheduling conflicts. In one embodiment, the method includes a computer system including a user interface, display, processor, and some form of memory. Contained within the memory is a resource scheduling process that analyzes resource data, scheduling criteria, and work parameters to create a working schedule. In conjunction with the creation of a working schedule, the scheduling process detects resource conflicts that can inhibit the schedule's functionality. Once detected an identification process conveys the error to the user concurrently with the schedule process to provide the user with a real-time indication of resource conflicts. The indication is presented in an unobtrusive manner so as to not interfere or impede the scheduling process. In addition, should the specific resource causing the conflict be identifiable, the indication process conveys that information in a similar real-time methodology.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for long-range planning. One embodiment includes a method for long-range planning for staffing in a complex environment, such as a contact center. The method includes defining at least one employee profile, wherein an employee profile comprises a group of employees that have the same skills, and wherein defining comprises specifying characteristics, including a skill set and an efficiency percentage. The method further includes defining at least one queue, specifying at least one criteria to be satisfied by a long-range staffing plan, and calculating an effect of staffing the at least one queue with the at least one employee profile, wherein the calculated effect includes a service level for the at least one queue, and an effective cost per hour.
