To use workforce management features, you need the permissions described here. For more information about Genesys Cloud’s feature permissions, see About roles and permissions.
If you lose access to workforce management features, make sure that your role includes the appropriate permissions.
Without these permissions, queue, skill, and language names appear incorrectly; for example, <Unknown1> and <Unknown2>. Unknown names are consistent within a single screen, but are not consistent throughout the other screens in the application.
Workforce management bases permissions on tasks or job functions. An administrator from the Genesys Cloud organization must assign the appropriate permissions to the selected user or users.

If you have the Master Admin role, restore the role to the latest valid permission set:
If you use a separate role for workforce management access, add the relevant permissions:
While the default permissions are a good starting point, you can change settings to fit your organization. The following example shows how to restrict the workforce management permission access to only selected work teams in the historical adherence, real-time adherence, and schedule views.
For example, you could give a supervisor permission to view real-time adherence. If the supervisor has a work teams permission, the supervisor could filter this view by selecting one or more work teams. You could limit the work teams available in the filter to just the work teams the supervisor manages by setting a condition on the real-time adherence permission.
Work teams conditions are available for these permissions:
To modify default permissions and display work teams as filters, perform these steps:
