Pause Types

Configure pause types in PBX Stats by creating custom statuses for agents and managers to indicate unavailability, with options for work-related or personal reasons.

Managers and agents can use pause statuses to let others know if they are available at the moment and select a reason for their unavailability. When an agent is on pause, this information is displayed on their card on the Realtime page. ‍The card will also show the pause type - work-related or personal.

A manager can configure pause types this way:

  1. Log in to PBX Stats.

  2. Go to Configuration > Pause Types.

  3. Edit or disable previously created pause types in the list.
