Automatically Rebalance Tickets to Reduce Agent Workload

Administrators can ensure agents receive an even workload using rebalancing rules. With rebalance rules, tickets are automatically redistributed among available agents based on specific parameters set by the administrator. For example, an administrator may create a rebalance rule that automatically rebalances the ticket load each time an agent logs in to SmarterTrack to actively receive tickets. This would ensure that the ticket workload among the active agents in the group receive an even amount of work.
