Rowspan Workspace Designer Configuration Option
In some cases you may want a field or control to span more than one table cell. For example, if you add an incident subject line to a workspace with three columns in the table, the subject line will be only one column wide, too narrow to display much information. By spanning the field over multiple columns, you can expand the field to display the full content of the subject line. You can also span an item over multiple rows if you want it to expand vertically. The Agent Browser User Interface introduced support for expanding vertically in November. The Column Span capability had been introduced in an early version of the Agent Browser User Interface.
Allows the user to choose the best answer from a list of answers that have been added and committed to the incident thread is displayed with columns for ID, Summary, Access Level, Status, and Date Added.
Propose an Answer From an Incident
Sometimes a customer’s question is common enough that you believe other customers should also have access to the answer. If you believe this information belongs in the knowledge base, you can propose the incident as a potential answer that customers can view without needing to submit an incident. This helps the knowledge base stay current with the information customers need.
When you propose an incident as an answer, a copy of the incident is submitted to a knowledge engineer, who determines whether it should become an answer.
Agent Guides Workspace Designer Options
The following workspace designer options:
- Show Search Inline
- Show Search Button
- Show Select Button
- Show Navigation
These include but aren't limited to:
- Report linking and drill down shown in split window orientation (top, bottom, right, left)
- Show Slice as Links
- Trend and comparison computed columns
- Minimize/Maximize/Restore for individual reports within dashboards
If the application determines that a report will take an excessive amount of time to run, which can result in unnecessary load on your database, you are given the option to queue the report using the report’s current search parameters. If you choose not to queue the report, you can select more restrictive search parameters for your report and try to run it again. The Agent Browser User Interface supports native queuing to run reports via utility within BUI similar to what we see in the Service Console. The user can access the My Queue Reports report by either:
- Directly from a link within the queue dialog
- Have the report in their nav set
- A link in the notification that the user gets once the report is done queuing.
Within BUI we are adding support of faceted style auto-filtering that can be toggled on and off. The auto filter will allow users to limit data displayed in a report by incorporating familiar concepts of modern web design with a left hand list style panel with the ability to select ranges and/or individual data values across all visible columns within the report page. This allows users to quickly boil report data into the details they are interested in seeing.
Workspace Rules Support for Extension Framework
The following workspace rules are now supported within the Agent Browser User Interface:
- Execute an add-in workspace rules action
- An add-in control condition returns a certain value workspace rules condition
