      Manage Queue Prioritization

      If, for example, you are registered to a support queue, which has 1st priority, and a sales queue, which has 2nd priority, you will always first receive calls from the support queue with 1st priority.

      When there are no more calls in the support queue, you will then receive calls from the sales queue, which has 2nd priority. If the 1st priority queue is never emptied, you will thus never receive calls from the 2nd priority queue.

      To activate the function, you must do the following on PBXadmin.dk:

      1. Under the Køer (Queues) menu item, click on the Prioritering af køer (Queue Prioritization) button.
        køer-5
      2. Place a checkmark next to Aktiver funktion (Activate function) in the dialog box and press Gem (Save).
        køer-3-1
      3. Beside each queue, you can now choose the prioritization.
        køer-4-1
