SmarterTrack's event-driven architecture gives administrators the ability to be notified when an event occurs in the system. For example, an administrator can configure an event to notify managers when an agents status changes for live chats.

  2. Click the settings icon.
  3. Expand Configuration and select Events.
  4. Ensure the Global tab is selected.
  5. Click New in the content pane toolbar. This will open a dialog box with different event options.
  6. In the Name field, type a name for the event.
  7. In the Category field, select Active Groups from the list.

  9. Click OK.
  10. Click the Options tab and check the Status checkbox.

  13. Click Add Action.
