Maximum Interactions per Agent: Limits the amount of active interactions the agent can get. The rest of the interactions wait in queue.

Enable: The system can have a non working Email campaign, without the need of deleting it entirely and lose information. If checked, the campaign can be used.

Receive Emails: If enabled, emails from this email address will enter the system as an interaction.

Signature: In the Templates section, a new one can be configured and used as a signature that will be assigned here. When an agent responds/sends and email through the specific campaign, the signature will load automatically.


When this checkbox is active, it enables two more fields that will be used to configure the rating of each outgoing email generated in the campaign.

Motivation to qualify: this is the title of the qualification an example could be 'Qualify our service' and it will be just above the rating icons.

Thanks for rating: By clicking on this field, we will be shown a modal to write a thank you message that will be shown to the client after qualifying.

Once we have everything configured and saved, when an email is sent through this campaign, the recipient will be able to qualify it.

 


Time frame in which the campaign will be available. In that time frame the Agents will receive new interactions.



For example, this campaign is being configured to be opened from 8 am to 6.59 pm. 
When the clock strikes 7:00 PM the campaign will not receive new interactions until the next day.

This one will work the following way, when a client sends a mail through that campaign, the client will get an automatic mail containing the template adjudicated, and an agent will get the interaction.
