Within the Supervisor Work Area, Action Templates define the alarms (actions) that occur when thresholds are violated.
The appearance of certain table cells change when alarms (actions) occur.
The Action Template defines the following settings:
Color changes to table cells containing statistics and object names
Terms that describe each type of alarm, for example: Minor, Major, and Critical. For further information about alarms, see Viewing Alarms Overview.
In the initial configuration, each supervisor uses a standard Action Template. However, you can modify the standard Action Template or create new Action Templates.
To manage the Action Templates:
Log in to the Genesys Desktop application. For further information, see Accessing the Supervisor Work Area.
From the action bar, select Supervisor > Settings > Action Templates.
In the Action Templates window, define the properties for your Action Templates. For information on defining properties, see the tables below.
Note: Action Template assignments, modifications, and deletions will not take effect the user closes and re-opens the Supervisor Work Area.
For information about defining the Action Template for each user, see Assigning Action Templates to Users.
